where do plants get energy to live and grow

1 answer

Plants get their energy primarily from sunlight through a process called photosynthesis. They have specialized structures called chloroplasts in their cells that contain a pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy, which is used to power photosynthesis. Additionally, plants also obtain some energy from the nutrients and water they take up from the soil through their roots. However, sunlight is the primary source of energy for plants.
