Answer:
Light energy is converted to chemical energy during photosynthesis.
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics, which is the LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be changed from one form to another. This law explains that the energy that exists cannot be made or destroyed, it can only be transformed from one of Its form to another.
The biological process of photosynthesis illustrates this law. Photosynthesis is the synthesis of organic molecules from inorganic molecules using the energy from sunlight. Plants, via their Chlorophyll pigment capture the light energy from the sun and use it to produce their food in form of organic molecules/glucose. This glucose is a chemical compound that stores energy in its chemical bonds.
Hence, photosynthesis supports the law of conservation of energy by changing/converting light energy from sun into a chemical energy in food (glucose).
