Photosynthesis is the process plants and some algae use to convert light energy to chemical energy stored as sugar within chloroplasts -- the energy factories found in plant cells. Plants need only carbon dioxide and water for photosynthesis to work.

Answer:

The correct answer is "in the form of starch".

Step-by-step explanation:

Plants store energy from photosynthesis in the form of starch. Starch is a polysaccharide, made from several units of glucose linked together following a particular disposition. The glucose that is produced during photosynthesis is used to synthesize starch, biomolecule that is used as a form to store energy.
