Answer:

Reagent

Step-by-step explanation:

Sunlight is one of the reagents involved in the energy production of plants, photosynthesis.

This process involves the sunlight absorbed in the chlorophyll molecules (in the form of heat), carbon dioxide and water. It is the energy of sunlight that allows the reaction between water and carbon dioxide.

At the end of the reactions, the production of oxygen and glucose occurs.
