Plant cells need energy in glucose that is released by?
Respiration
Why do plant cells need energy from the sun?
Plants need energy from the sun for food, they do this through photosynthesis which is the cells of the leaves (palisade cells, and inside those, chloroplasts), gathering the suns energy and changing it into glucose. the plant can then use this glucose for food. :)
How is energy produced inside mitochondria?
Glucose is oxidized in them. Released energy is stored in ATP
What causes a cell to released stored glycogen into bloodstream?
The Pancreas makes insulin which causes cells to take up glucose from the blood stream and store it as glycogen which causes cells to release their glucose into the bloodstream.
What cells require glucose as an energy to carry out life processes and what mediates the glucose transport across the cell's plasma membrane?
Glucose is virtually the sole energy fuel of brain. Where as, Muscle can derive energy from glucose, fatty acids and ketone bodies; adipose tissue stores and uses triacylglycerols.Glucose transporters in the cell membrane permit the entry of glucose inside the cells.
Plant cells need energy in glucose that is released by?
Respiration
Is a glucose an organ?
No. Glucose is a sugar molecule, infinitely smaller than an organ. Cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs. Glucose is found inside of cells and functions as a source of energy.
How does glucose help a person's body?
Glucose is your bodies' fuel. It is combined with oxygen inside your cells to produce energy, known as ATP, that runs all of the cycles that go on inside you, for example rebuilding damaged cells or making new ones.
Which cells in organisms use energy released from glucose?
Every cells both make the ATP and use it.
How do your cells obtain glucose?
Plant cells gain glucose by absorbing water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight and then through the chemical reaction photosynthesis make the glucose. Animal cells gain glucose by taking in oxygen and sugars containing the glucose made by plants.
How is glucose stored in leaves?
When glucose gets broken down in animals and plants during respiration, stored energy is released in cells.
What is the brains source of energy?
Glucose is the main source of energy of the brain. It is converted to ATP inside the brain. However, the brain cells (neurons) themselves use some glucose. The other glucose is first metabolized and converted to "Lactate" by cells inside the brain called "Astrocytes". The lactate produced will then enter the neurons and then is converted to ATP.
What does the respiration do?
Respiration is the production of energy in mitochrondia inside cells. In order to respire, cells need Glucose and Oxygen. The waste products are Water and Carbon Dioxcide. Glucose + Oxygen --------- Carbon Dioxcide+ Water energy

Name one hormone and state its function?
* Insulin - released by pancreas - encourages liver and muscle cells to absorb glucose from the blood; stimulates the conversion of glucose ----> glycogen in liver/muscle cells.
Where is energy released from living cells following the complete breakdown of glucose?
respiration
