How is photosynthesis a transfer of energy?
The process turns light energy into chemical potential energy (the sun's light is used to create sugars).
How do plants use respiration to release the energy they need to grow?
The process is almost identical to the process animals use. The plantc cells break down simple sugars in the cytosol, and use the chemical energy that is released to phosphorylate short-term energy storage molecules. These molecules move to the mitochondrion, where they give their energy to an electron transport system that generates ATP, which is the molecule that provides energy for most of the reactions that happen in the cell. The difference between plants and animals is that animals have to eat sugars to power respiration, and plants create them using photosynthesis.
How simple sugars used for energy compared to more complex sugars like the starch pasta?
Pls help.
What is the equation for the fermentation of simple sugars to alcohol?
The equation for fermentation of the simple sugars to alcohol are, Sugar (glucose) yields alcohol (Ethyl alcohol) + CO2 (g) + energy.
What polysaccharides are used for immediate energy?
Simple sugars are used for immediate energy conversion in most living things.

Process by which autotrophs trap energy from sunlight with chlorophyll and use this energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars?
photosynthesis
What do plants use the energy to do?
Plants harness the energy from our sun to create chlorophyll from the process of photosynthesis. Plants use the energy of sunlight to synthesize the hexose sugars by photosynthesis in their chloroplasts.
What kind of chemical reactions that release energy from sugars?
The oxidation/ reduction of sugars release energy during respiration. The phenomenon of liberation of energy from sugars is a katabolic process. It may be aerobic or anaerobic.The oxidation/ reduction of sugars release energy during respiration. The phenomenon of liberation of energy from sugars is a katabolic process. It may be aerobic or anaerobic.
Light energy creates water molecules?
No. Light energy does help create sugar by providing the necessary energy to convert Carbon Dioxide into organic compounds, mostly simple sugars.
What can plants that lack chloroplast not do?
Plants that lack chloroplasts cannot synthesize simple sugars via photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is essential in absorbing light energy that converts water and carbon dioxide to simple sugars. Oxygen is emitted in the process
What is made by plants to store energy?
Cellulose as far as I'm aware. The equation for photosynthesis involves creating simple sugars. These sugars then further "polymerise" (don't know if that's the biological term) to create complex sugars such as lignen and the like.

Summarize the differences between simple sugars double sugars and complex sugars?
simple sugars are the sugars that are bad for the body and then the double are the sugars that are twice as bad and takes out more energy during the breakdown of the body . complex sugars are pretty self explanatory . :D Also, simple sugars are sugars that the body can use directly, while complex sugars take along time to be broken down.
How do producers make the energy from the sunlight available to the rest of the ecosystem?
They use light energy from the sun to combine carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars, which are fuel/food for their cells. This process is photosynthesis.
What is the process used by plants to get energy from the sun to build sugars?
the process is called photosynthesis
