The correct answer is a) to make sugars and store energy. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of glucose (sugar). This glucose is used as a source of energy for the organisms and also serves as a building block for other important molecules.
