Plants store sugar in the form of starch, which is a complex carbohydrate made up of glucose molecules chained together. Starch is primarily stored in specialized plant cells such as parenchyma cells or tubers and serves as an energy reserve for the plant to be used during times of low photosynthesis or growth.

How do leaves produce their own food?

through a process called "photosynthesis"; the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. The bonds of simple sugar (glucose), is the plant's food.


How do animals benefits from plant's method of storing sugar?

Animals benefit because when the plant stores the sugar, the animal can eat the part where it's stored and get the energy for itself.

What does photosynthesis mean for an plant?

Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. This process occurs in plants and some algae (Kingdom Protista). Plants need only light energy, CO2, and H2O to make sugar. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts, specifically using chlorophyll, the green pigment involved in photosynthesis.


What is the chemical reaction that produces food in plant cells?

This is called "photosynthesis". Plant cells containing chlorophyll create glucose (sugar) from carbon dioxide and water.


What energy is required for photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis requires light energy, which is absorbed by pigments in the chloroplasts of plant cells. This light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Additionally, photosynthesis also requires some chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH, which are produced during the light-dependent reactions.
