Which molecule do plants use to store extra glucose?
Glucose can be stored in plants in several ways. In some plants , the glucose molecules join to one another to form starch molecules. Some plants convert glucose to fructose and the energy is stored in this form. In other plants, fructose combines with glucose to form sucrose. The energy is stored in carbohydrates in this form. Plant cells obtain energy for their activities from these molecules.
What molecule do mammals use to store extra glucose in their muscles?
Glycogen is the molecule used to store extra glucose into a MAMMAL'S muscles.
Which molecule do mammals use to store extra glucose in their muscles?
glycogen
Is starch molecules that are formed from smaller glucose molecules a chemical or physical change?
The changing of extra glucose into starch is a chemical change.
What is the function of starch in animals?
Starch is a polysaccharide, thus it is made up of many molecules of monosaccharides (glucose). THis allows it to be consumed then reduced to glucose to provide energy for the organism. It is how plants store their energy.
What is glucose produce for?
the plants will produce glucose if there is any extra food as food comes in sugar and when it is combined with water plus oxygen, it turns to glucose
Plants store extra glucose in the form of?
Plants store glucose in the form of starch. Glucose is also converted to a range of other substances. Two notable examples are the conversion of glucose to fats/oils for seeds and the conversion of glucose to sucrose for transportation.
What is the storage form of glucose?
Animals store excess glucose in their liver as a large compound called glycogen. Plants store extra glucose in their starch.
What happens to the extra glucose produced by plants?
Plants use cellular respiration to harvest the energy stored in the molecular bonds of glucose
Where do plants store extra glucose?
The glucose acts as an anti-freeze. That is why some fruits and vegetables taste better if there was some night frost during growth.
What effect does sugar water have on vegetables?
sugar is suppose to help plants and veggeis grow because of the extra glucose
How do plants store extra sugar?
In their main central vacuole.
