how is elctromagnetic energy from the sun captured stored and finally converted into energy in glucose
Glucose is converted to fructose by the glucose isomerase enzyme
The glucose then is converted to it's ready use form glycogen. Then when needed it is converted back into glucose for cellular respiration.
Pyruvate is initially converted to oxaloacetate in the anabolism of glucose. That molecule in turn is converted to phosphoenolpyruvate.
About 67& of the energy in glucose is converted to ATP. The rest is lost as heat.
Food... carbohydrates are converted into glucose.

Once digested, 100% of carbohydrates are converted to glucose. However, approximately 40% of protein foods are also converted to glucose, but this has minimal effect on blood glucose levels.

protein would be converted into glucose.

Glucose
Food... carbohydrates are converted into glucose.
Glycogen is a long branched chain of glucose so when catabolized it will be converted to glucose.
Saccharides are the compounds that can be converted to glucose by catabolism. More complex saccharides are starches, cellulose, and gums.
Along with water, it is chemically converted into a form of carbohydrates that plants can use for energy. This is calledPHOTOSYNTHESIS.
