monomeric form is soluble and the polysaccharide form is insoluble. Monomeric would increase the cells osmolarity allowing water to enter and the cell might burst

Eergy is in glucose, but the body has to break it down into a 3 carbon pyrubate so it can be converted to ATP.

It has to go through a series of chemical reactions. The first is glycolysis, then the Kreb's cycle, then the electron transport chain before it can form all the ATP it is capable of forming.

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.

Where is glucose stored in a cell?

glucose is stored in fat it is not stored as anything else other than glucose in fat. This is why people are fat because they take in too much glucose and it is not burned off through exercise so instead of the body wasting it, it stores it as fat
