∙ 12y agoThe food that plants make gets stored in the form of starch so that it can be further used when required that is when there is lack of sunlight

What are the daily changes of seed after sown in the soil?
Life cycle of seed : Seed Coat - Protects the inside of the seed. Embryo - the beginning of the new plant. Endosperm - Stored food in a monocotyledon. Stored Food - a plant uses stored food until it grows leaves that can make food. Monocot - a type of seed that has only one cotyledon. Dicot - a type of seed that has two cotyledons. Cotyledon - Leaf-like structure that absorbs and digest food stored in the seed. Germination - the process of growing a new plant from a seed.
Why does a plants store food?
Night, winter, drought, cloudy days, etc.
What happens to food during photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis uses light energy along with carbon dioxide to make molecules, or food energy. This food energy is stored in chemical bonds.
