Answer:

Radiant energy is converted to stored chemical energy.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast. Photosynthesis is divided into two parts: the light reaction and the dark reaction. In the presence of light chlorophyll gets excited by an electron to split water and produce energy molecules such as ATP and NADPH. In the dark reaction (independent of light) CO₂ gets oxidized to sugar molecules such as glucose.  

6CO₂ + 6H₂O -> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

When plants use energy from the sun to make sugar, they are converting radiant energy to chemical energy.

What is photosynthesis?

It is a process whereby green plants use radiant energy to manufacture carbohydrates.

During this process, the radiant energy from the sun is converted and stored as chemical energy in the carbohydrate molecule. Plants extract the energy from the carbohydrate molecule for their own metabolism.
