The energy from light causes a chemical reaction that breaks down the molecules of carbon dioxide and water and reorganizes them to make the sugar (glucose) and oxygen gas. After the sugar is produced, it is then broken down by the mitochondria into energy that can be used for growth and repair.


hope this helps you! have a good day, love ! :)

certain organisms convert solar energy (sunlight) into chemical energy, which is then used to build carbohydrate molecules.
