Answer:

It is 'C'

Step-by-step explanation:

The chemical reaction that occurs in the chloroplast is:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C6H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

The electromagnetic energy of sunlight is converted to chemical energy in the chlorophyll-containing cells of photosynthetic organisms. The granum stores the photon particles from light and converts its energy into chemical energy to convert carbon and water into glucose and oxygen.
