What carbohydrates are used to store long-term energy in plant cells?

We have to remember that plants use the light-powered combination of CO2 and H2O, called "photosynthesis", to synthesize carbon hydrates. On the other hand, the main carbohydrate source for animal cells to produce energy is glucose. However, when glucose is scarce in the environment, animal cells can use fructose in order to "switch on" the metabolic pathway to produce energy, mainly in the form of ATP molecules.

Which of the following can serve as as energy source and a structural support in plant cells?
carbohydrates
For what do cells use glucose?
identify one way cells can use glucose
What is an energy-converting organelle found in plant and algae cells?
Chloroplasts are energy-converting organelles found in green plant cells. Within the chloroplasts are stacks of disks called thykaloids in which photosynthesis takes place, creating carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water.
What form does cells store their energy?
Plant Cells store energy in the complex carbohydrates such as starch, disaccharides, and lipids.Animal Cells store energy in the Polysaccharide known as Glycogen.Cells store energy when a third phosphate group becomes bonded to an ADP molecule. ATP molecules are a cell's basic energy source.
Is cellulose a polysaccharide for energy in plant cells?
Cellulose is not used in plant cells for energy. It is used for structural strength.
Do carbohydrates supply energy and fiber in plant cells?
They supply energy but not fibre.
Do Plant cells derive their energy from chlorophyll.?
Plants do not dear be their energy from chlorophyll. However, they use chlorophyll to produce carbohydrates. Carbohydrates, in turn, are used to provide energy for the plant.
Which of the following can serve as as energy source and a structural support in plant cells?
carbohydrates
Where does the plant cell collect its energy?
I think plant cells have chloroplasts which take in light energy and converts it into carbohydrates by using photosynthesis
For what do cells use glucose?
identify one way cells can use glucose
What organelle provides the energy for the cell wall?
Plant cells have mitochondria just as animals cells do. These provide the energy for the production of cell walls.Cellulose is the substance that makes up most of a plant's cell walls. Plant cells make their own carbohydrates that they use for energy and to build their cell wall.
What does a plant produce that provides energy for the plant?
Carbohydrates
What are the functions of carbohydrates?
The functions of carbohydrates are:1.Primary energy source for cells2.Structural material of plant cell walls
Which carbohydrates is an essential constituent of plant cells?
STARCH

What produces energy for plants and animal cells?
Plant cells use photosynthesis to produce ATP and carbohydrate. Animal cells depend on ingested carbohydrates, which are digested to sugars in the stomach and intestine and taken up into the blood stream. Once the cells take up the sugar they metabolise it to form ATP.
