Question

Which statement best describes the relationship of photosynthesis and energy?

The process of photosynthesis is energy-storing because the process converts light energy into chemical energy,
which is stored in the bonds of glucose.
The process of photosynthesis is energy-releasing because the process converts light energy into free energy that
can be used for cell functions.
The process of photosynthesis is energy-conserving because no energy is used throughout the process of forming
glucose and oxygen molecules.
The process of photosynthesis is energy-wasting because photosynthesis is an inefficient process that depletes the
cell of energy stored in the bonds of glucose.

Answer 1

Answer: The process of photosynthesis is energy-conserving because no energy is used throughout the process of forming glucose and oxygen molecules.

Explanation: Plants create glucose through sunlight for food, which conserves energy
