Question

plants synthesize their own food in the form of sugars during the process of photosynthesis. which of the statements describe photosynthesis? uses sugars to generate cellular energy, releasing carbon dioxide (co₂) is a cellular process that occurs in the mitochondria of plant cells produces sugars for the plant using the energy from sunlight produces sugars for the plant using only the nutrients in soil is a cellular process that occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells converts carbon dioxide (co₂) to sugars, releasing oxygen (o₂)

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process in plant - chloroplasts that uses sunlight energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugars and release oxygen. It doesn't use sugars to generate energy (that's respiration), doesn't occur in mitochondria, and doesn't rely only on soil nutrients.

Answer:

produces sugars for the plant using the energy from sunlight
is a cellular process that occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells
converts carbon dioxide ($CO_{2}$) to sugars, releasing oxygen ($O_{2}$)
