it is temporarily stored as starch in the starch granules.moreover,it can also be converted to simpler sugars at night.

What happens to the stored food that the plant make?
Its stored for later or it will be used to make itself grow bigger.
What happens when glucose and starch react together?
They are the same: starch is the form in which glucose is stored. So nothing happens.
Why is glucose stored as an insoluble compound?
so that it has no effect on osmosis ya moron
Where is glucose stored in a cell?
glucose is stored in fat it is not stored as anything else other than glucose in fat. This is why people are fat because they take in too much glucose and it is not burned off through exercise so instead of the body wasting it, it stores it as fat
Is starch stored in leaves of some plants?
after the plant photosynthesises, it has some left over glucose that the leaves covert into starch. The starch is then stored in the chlorophyl (the green pigment in the leaves). At night or in the dark, the plant can't photosynthesise so it respires the stored starch instead
Why glucose not stored so much?
it is
What do plants convert glucose into so that they can store it?
starch

How might your body senses when to convert glucose to glycogen and glycogen back to glucose?
Your body seeks to convert glucose to glycogen and glycogen to glucose based on hormonal signals that are secreted in response to an event. i.e. if you ate tons of sugary food, your body will secrete a hormone called insulin from the beta cells of the pancreas, so that glucose in the blood will be able to be stored as glycogen in the muscle cells.

How can exercise and wheight loss help to lower the blood sugar level in diabetic patient?
In diabetes there is insufficient insulin, a hormone, to convert glucose into glycogen for storage in the body.Muscles need glucose to function effectively, so by exercising, the glucose travelling around in the blood will be directed straight to the muscles instead of being stored and therefore the blood sugar level will be lowered. Decreasing the intake of carbohydrates will directly lower the levels of glucose readily available and stored glucose, in the form of glycogen, will be converted back to be used as energy causing weight loss.
Where is this energy stored in glucose?
In the chemical bonds that are weaker than the bonds of co2 and h2o. So when glucose is oxidized energy is liberated

Why is glucose not very good for storage?
In a cell, both starch and glycogen do not dissolve in water which is why they both are used for storage of energy. Whereas if glucose was stored in a cell as free molecules, the glucose would dissolve and reduce the water potential, not store the glucose.
What happens to most of the glucose made by the plant?
Glucose is used to create the ATP used by cells for energy. A lot of it's created before the plant can use it, though, so it's compacted and stored as starch.
