Question: What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?
Answer: absorbing light energy
Hypothesis: chlorophyll is used for absorbing light energy by plants
Supporting facts: sent1: in the photosynthesis process sunlight has the role of raw material sent2: to receive sunlight means to absorb sunlight sent3: if an organism uses a process to convert something into something else, then that something is used for that process sent4: sunlight is a kind of light sent5: a leaf is a part of a plant sent6: sunlight is a kind of solar energy sent7: light means light energy sent8: receiving sunlight is synonymous with absorbing sunlight sent9: role means function sent10: chlorophyll is found in the cells of leaves sent11: absorbing energy causes objects / materials / substances to heat sent12: if an object / something is in the sunlight then that object / that something will absorb solar energy sent13: sunlight means solar energy sent14: light is a kind of energy sent15: using a raw material sometimes requires absorbing that raw material sent16: if an object / a substance / a location absorbs solar energy then that object / that substance will increase in temperature sent17: a plant requires sunlight to grow sent18: darkness has a negative impact on photosynthesis sent19: if something transfers energy to something else then that something else absorbs that energy sent20: a leaf absorbs sunlight to perform photosynthesis sent21: absorbing sunlight causes objects to heat sent22: if something absorbs something else then that something will contain that something else sent23: photosynthesis is a kind of chemical process sent24: photosynthesis means green plants convert from carbon dioxide and water and solar energy into carbohydrates and food and oxygen for themselves sent25: a plant is a kind of organism
Reasoning: [BECAUSE] photosynthesis means green plants convert from carbon dioxide and water and solar energy into carbohydrates and food and oxygen for themselves [AND] sunlight is a kind of solar energy [INFER] int1: photosynthesis means plants convert carbon dioxide and water and sunlight into carbohydrates and food and oxygen [BECAUSE] a plant is a kind of organism [AND] if an organism uses a process to convert something into something else, then that something is used for that process [INFER] int2: if a plant uses a process to convert something into something else then that something is used for that process [BECAUSE] int2 [AND] photosynthesis is a kind of chemical process [INFER] int3: if a plant uses photosynthesis to convert something into something else then that something is used for photosynthesis [BECAUSE] int1 [AND] int3 [INFER] int4: a plant uses sunlight for photosynthesis [BECAUSE] int4 [AND] in the photosynthesis process sunlight has the role of raw material [INFER] int5: a plant uses the raw material sunlight for photosynthesis [BECAUSE] int5 [AND] using a raw material sometimes requires absorbing that raw material [INFER] int6: a plant absorbs sunlight to perform photosynthesis [BECAUSE] a leaf absorbs sunlight to perform photosynthesis [AND] a leaf is a part of a plant [INFER] int7: a leaf is a part of a plant that absorbs sunlight to perform photosynthesis [BECAUSE] int7 [AND] chlorophyll is found in the cells of leaves [INFER] int8: chlorophyll is found in the cells of parts of plants that absorb sunlight to perform photosynthesis [BECAUSE] int6 [AND] int8 [INFER] int9: chlorophyll is used for absorbing sunlight by plants [BECAUSE] light is a kind of energy [AND] sunlight is a kind of light [INFER] int10: sunlight is a kind of light energy [BECAUSE] int10 [AND] int9 [INFER] int11: chlorophyll is used for absorbing light energy by plants
