How do animals and plants store excess sugar?
Plants capture energy from sunlight by means of photosynthesis. Using the green pigment in their leaves called chlorophyll, which makes sugar. They store the sugar primarily as starch. Storage in the form of fat / oil is common too, especially in seeds. Animals mostly store excess sugar in body fat, and plants usually make fruit with excess sugar (as long as they have enough water).
