glucose
They get energy from nutrients in the bloodstream
true
Glucose is carried through the bloodstream and adsorbed by cells. It is then broken down through the Krebs cycle. The new molecules are used to create ATP, which is the molecule that cells use for energy.
A monosaccharide sugar originating in plants and used in animals to carry energy throughout the body, just as sucrose is the main carrier of energy throughout the plant. It is prepared industrially by the hydrolysis of starch.

It's the level of glucose in your bloodstream. It varies throughout the day, particularly when you eat. Diabetics should always test their blood sugar PRIOR to eating. MY last blood sugar was 82, prior to eating of course!!
Insulin reduces the amount of sugar in your bloodstream to an acceptable level, and glucagon raises the amount of sugar in your bloodstream to an acceptable level. Glycogen is a stored type of the sugar, Glucose, that can readily be added to the bloodstream by glucagon.
Leaves are the main component of a plant that takes light energy, converts it into chemical energy (sugar), and delivers the sugar throughout the plant through "veins" called phloem.
The body mains a steady level of sugar in the bloodstream by sending signals to the pancreas. By producing insulin and glucagon, sugar levels are regulated.
it is carried to the roots of the plant
they do not produce enough insulin to absorb sugar from the bloodstream.
The body breaks down or converts most carbohydrates into the sugar glucose. Glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream, and with the help of a hormone called insulin it travels into the cells of the body where it can be used for energy
