Best Answer

It manufactures it from minerals in the soil and energy from the sun and carbon dioxide in the air through a process called photosysthesis.

It is stored by the plant until the plant needs energy.


How does green plant get glucose it needs?

It takes nutrients from the dirt and also water and then uses photosynthesis to convert it to the type of sugar that it needs


What are daffodil food sources?

In order to grow and be a sucessful little plant the daffodil must both photosynthesise and respire. This is the 'food' of the plant. To photosynthesise the plant needs the reactants of Carbon Dioxide and Water, to make Glucose and Oxygen. To respire the plant needs Glucose and Oxygen to produce Carbon Dioxide and Water and Energy (This is the growing power bit). So foods are Carbon Dioxide, Oxygen, Glucose, Water, Warmth, and Sunlight.


What effect does the amount of light have on the plant growth?

well there are many effects! One of them is for photosynthesis! Photosynthesis needs sunlight to create glucose (sugar) to the plant cells. Glucose to the plant is like food for us. it is necessary for us to live! Therefore the more sunlight the plant has, the better it is because it can create more "food" (glucose) and makes the plant grow.

Why is light only necessary one the plant has germinated?

Because the seed only needs water and nutrients to germinate and turn into a plant. Once the plant grows above the surface, it needs the sun In order to produce glucose for food


Do plants produce food when they have no carbon?

No they do not because to produce plant food, glucose, with a chemical formula of C6 H12 O6, because CO2 or carbon dioxide is what provides the plant with the carbon atoms it needs to make glucose


Where is glucose in a plant?

Glucose should be in every cell in the plant since glucose is necessary to all cells' survival.

What does the plant use the glucose it produces for and why?

Glucose is a sugar, and for that reson the plant makes food


What provides an animal with the energy it needs?

all organisms receive their energy from respiration, a process that requires glucose and oxygen. Animals get the oxygen from the air they breathe in. The glucose is obtained from food, either other animals or plants. All the glucose in animals originated in plants that produce glucose in photosynthesis, and the glucose has been passed down the food chain.
