Starch
In plants, glucose is generally stored as starch.
Because glucose is such an important molecule from which organisms obtain energy, plants and animals will string together units of glucose called polysaccharides. Plants store glucose as a polysaccharide called starch.

Plants store energy in the form of Glucose
Starch, a polymer of glucose, is used as a storage polysaccharide in plants. It is found in the form of amylose and the branched amylopectin.
They store glucose by converting them into cellulose which is also used to maintain the plants cells walls. Starch is stored in a plants stem, its roots and leaves. Plants store glucose as they are the main source of energy. The converted glucose either it's in the form of starch or cellulose can be used by some animals as it can be easily digested.

Animals store excess glucose in their liver as a large compound called glycogen. Plants store extra glucose in their starch.
Because glucose is such an important molecule from which organisms obtain energy, plants and animals will string together units of glucose called polysaccharides. Plants store glucose as a polysaccharide called starch.
Plants use a process called photosynthesis to store glucose in the form of starch. Two types of starch are produced through photosynthesis. These starches that are produced are called amylose and amylopectin. Plant foods are a mixture of these two types of starch. Each type of starch is structurally and functional different.
how do plants store glucose for later? if you know the answer, please click on the [improve] button and type it here, or go to the discussion page and type it there...thanks
this is when the plant store it own food and minerals. this answer was passed by tue us
Plants store glucose as the polysaccharide starch. The cereal grains (wheat, rice, corn, oats, barley) as well as tubers such as potatoes are rich in starch.Starch can be separated into two fractions--amylose and amylopectin. Natural starches are mixtures of amylose (10-20%) and amylopectin (80-90)(elmhurst.edu/~chm/vchembook/548starchiodine.html)
Starch is an example of a polysaccharide in which plants store glucose molecules. it is a carbohydrate, so therefor it is an organic molecule. it is a branched molecule that is made up of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen. its chemical formula is CH2OH
