A) Photosynthesis converts radiant energy to chemical energy to be used by organisms in the food chain.

Explanation: In photosynthesis plants (and other photoautotrophs) capture sunlight and store its energy in chemical bonds (glucose), which fuels their metabolism and becomes the energy source for herbivores and higher trophic levels.
