Answer:

It excites electrons

Explanation:

Energy from sunlight excites electrons in plant cells and drives the chemical reaction needed to produce food in plants.

  • This reaction is called photosynthesis.
  • During photosynthesis, green plants manufacture their food using sunlight in the presence of carbon dioxide and water.
  • The product of the reaction is glucose and oxygen gas.
  • The role of the sunlight is to excite electrons which facilitates the process.
