Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Solar energy

2. Chemical energy

Step-by-step explanation:

Photosynthesis is a complex process which takes place in green plants and algae. The process produces glucose molecule which is used by the plants to synthesise the energy molecules in the form of ATP and in the synthesis of other molecules.

The photosynthesis metabolic reactions synthesise glucose molecules using the carbon dioxide and water taking place in the presence of sunlight. Thus, the reaction converts the solar energy from the sun to the chemical energy stored in the bonds of glucose.

Thus, Solar energy and Chemical energy are the correct answers.
