Answer: O stored as chemical energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

In photosynthesis, light energy is stored as chemical energy. Plants use this chemical energy to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into organic compounds. They capture light energy to produce oxygen and chemical energy stored. This chemical energy is stored in glucose.
