Plants utilize energy stored in glucose to perform their life functions. what process captures and stores that energy?
a carbon cycle
b nitrogen cycle
c photosynthesis
d phosphorus cycle

Plants utilize energy stored in glucose to perform the life functions, the process which is responsible for the capturing and storing that energy is photosynthesis. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is option c.

Explanation:

A process which helps the plants to make their food in the presence of sunlight, water, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The product of this process is glucose and oxygen. Glucose is a form of sugar and hence it is converted into energy.

Photosynthesis process is performed by Green plants only and it is not available for non-green plants like mushroom. Chlorophyll is a green pigment which is very essential for this process and it is also known as site for photosynthesis.  

the correct answer is 2 and 4
