Answer 1

(ii) and (iii)

Explanation:

Photosynthesis begins when chlorophyll absorbs light energy (iii), which is then converted into chemical energy (ii) to power the plant. During this process, water is split into hydrogen and oxygen, and carbon dioxide is reduced (not oxidised) to form carbohydrates like glucose.
