Step 1
During photosynthesis, plants convert light energy into chemical energy, which is stored in the form of glucose and other organic molecules. Option A: Absorbing carbon dioxide is a part of the photosynthesis process, but it is not the main function of Show more…

Plants are best known for their ability to perform photosynthesis, the process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. But plants don't just make sugars; they use them, too. Like animals, plants must break sugars down to fuel cellular work. What products are generated in chloroplasts? Which two of the following molecules are products of chloroplasts? a. sugar b. amino acid c. oxygen gas d. carbon dioxide
