Answer:

The answer is C. Photosynthesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which a plant, through the chlorophyll of its leaves, absorbs light from the sun, so that the plant can synthesize glucose, energy, oxygen from inorganic substances such as CO2 and water. In this process the energy of sunlight is transformed into stable chemical energy that serves the plant to feed, grow and develop.
