What is it called when plants manufacture glucose?
Glucose is manufactured by plants with the aid of energy from the sun in the process called photosynthesis.
The carbohydrate that plants use to store energy is called?
Plants store energy in the form of Glucose
Which of these is a form of energy stored in a plant?
starch (roots, corn etc), sugars, oils, esters, cellulose.
How do organisms obtain energy from polysaccharides?
Because glucose is such an important molecule from which organisms obtain energy, plants and animals will string together units of glucose called polysaccharides. Plants store glucose as a polysaccharide called starch.
Where does mitochondria get energy from?
They get energy from glucose. This energy released from respiration
What are glucose polymers called that are used as the major form of energy in plants?
Glucose makes Sugars and Starches and Cellulose.
Why must animals eat food but plants do not have to?
To tell you the truth plants DO eat, you just never see them do it. Here's how it works. The plants take carbon dioxide and and energy and the plant mixes it up and it turns into a sugar called glucose. Glucose is the plants food. So there you have it. plants do kind of eat it they using the energy from sunlight called Photosynthesis i think
In what form must energy be for plants to make glucose?
Plants use light energy to make glucose.
What is a energy that comes from things such as plants and trees?
Plants use energy from the sun.
What is a plants food called?
There many types of that plants grow such as, potatoes, rice, bananas and many more.
What is the organelles in plants cells in what light energy is changed into a surgar called glucose?
chloroplasts
How does light work in helping things grow?
In Short, plants need sunlight to grow, and survive, they convert sunlight into glucose, which is a form of sugar, as food. They need glucose to grow. Light energy is used by plants to manufacture their food, a process called photosynthesis. Plants use carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and the by-product oxygen. In this way, light energy is converted into chemical energy in the glucose. We may not realise how important this process is. Plants are the only organisms (apart from some photosynthetic bacteria) which are capable of harnessing light energy. ALL other living organisms, including man, is dependent on plants to obtain energy, whether directly by eating the plants or indirectly by eating the animals which eat plants. In ecology, this importance is pointed out by the fact that ALL food chains or webs start by photosynthetic organisms (again mainly plants).
