In order to detect glucose in a plant's leaf, you will need several items, including leaves, a beaker, a boiling tube, Tollen's reagent, and Fehling's reagent. If the leaf contains glucose, the test-tube containing the Tollen's reagent will turn a silver color.

A product of photosynthesis that is a solid?
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy to fuel, essentially. A product of photosynthesis which is a solid is called Glucose.
Why is the leaf tested for starch and not glucose to see if photosynthesis has taken place?
plants produce glucose through photosynthesis, and store it the form of starch which is nothing more than a chain of glucose molecules, the plants can use these starch reserves for energy in a pinch/in the dark
What is the food maker of a leaf?
true
What is glucose stored as in plants?
Sugar=glucose
Where do plants store glucose in?
In plants, glucose is generally stored as starch.
What is glucose receptors?
The purpose of the glucose receptors is to detect blood glucose levels. The Islets of Langerhorn dispatch alpha cells to detect low blood glucose and beta cells to detect high blood glucose levels.
What chemical detects glucose?
Iodine can detect starch, which is a polymer of glucose
What molecules diffuse out of a leaf?
Glucose
Do plants have glucose?
Corn plants does have glucose. Most of it comes from the leaves.

Is glucose found in animals or plants?
Glucose is found in both plants and animals. Plants produce glucose by photosynthesis, and animals consume glucose (it is the first reactant for cellular respiration).
The leaf makes this simple sugar?
The leaf makes glucose through the process of photosynthesis. This glucose is then used by the plant for energy or stored as starch for later use.
How is glucose trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis?
Glucose is trapped as starch in leaf after phatosynthesis
Do corn plants have glucose?
Corn plants does have glucose. Most of it comes from the leaves.
Where does the glucose in animal cells ocme from?
Animals get the glucose in their cells through plants. They obtain the glucose by eating the plants and absorbing their glucose and energy.
