Plants don't eat, they photosynthesize glucose directly from sunlight, Carbon dioxide, water, and several other things
Dissolved food is converted to glucose in a plant through the process of photosynthesis. Glucose is then used as a source of energy for the plant or converted into other molecules for growth and development.
glucose, starch starch and glucose (:
Food... carbohydrates are converted into glucose.
The process of photosynthesis occurs in the leaves of the plant, specifically in the chloroplasts of the plant cells. This is where sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide are converted into glucose, the plant's food source.
The food not useed by plants are surely not wasted. They are kept for future reuse."Imaginehow resourceful plants are than humans!"
Plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide during photosynthesis to produce glucose (sugar) as their food source. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where energy from sunlight is converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
Glucose is like a food for a plant.
Unused glucose in a plant is stored as starch in various plant parts, such as roots, stems, or leaves. This stored starch can later be converted back to glucose to provide energy for the plant's growth and development.
The leaves are known as the food factory of the plant as they contain chloroplasts (within the cells of the leaf) which convert carbon dioxide, water and sunlight into simple glucose molecules - or food for the plant
Mitochondria use glucose as fuel.So food we eat converted to glucose.
Phloem transports food, primarily in the form of sucrose, from the leaves where it is produced during photosynthesis. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of leaf cells, where sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water are converted into glucose. The glucose is then converted into sucrose and distributed throughout the plant via the phloem to support growth and energy needs in various tissues.
In photosynthesis, light energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll in plant cells, initiating a series of chemical reactions that ultimately produce glucose molecules. This chemical energy stored in glucose can be used by the plant as a source of fuel for cellular processes.
