Explain how light energy is converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis.

Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and used to split water molecules, releasing oxygen and storing energy in ATP and NADPH.

Light energy directly converts carbon dioxide into glucose.

Light energy is stored in the roots of the plant.

Light energy is used to heat the plant, which then produces glucose.
