photosynthesis; as in the breakdown of an average plant cell, you will see that the Chlamydomonas cell contains Clorophyl, the chemical used in plants to convert water & sunlight into glucose. The Chlamydomonas does the same thing, pretty much.

Chlamydomonas uses photosynthesis to make glucose. During this process, the organism utilizes sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
The process is called anaerobic glycolysis. It is a metabolic pathway that occurs in the absence of oxygen, where glucose is converted into lactic acid to produce energy.
The process is called photosynthesis. It is the chemical process in which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy to produce glucose and oxygen, with chlorophyll playing a crucial role in capturing light energy for this process.
The process is called photosynthesis. In this process, plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, which is a form of chemical energy that the plant can use for growth and metabolism. Oxygen is also produced as a byproduct.
The food molecule needed for cells to respire is glucose. Glucose serves as the primary source of energy for cellular respiration, a process that converts glucose into ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
The pigment involved in the process of making glucose during photosynthesis is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, and uses it to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process takes place in the chloroplasts of plant cells.
