Is glucose found in animals or plants?

Glucose is found in both plants and animals. Plants produce glucose by photosynthesis, and animals consume glucose (it is the first reactant for cellular respiration).


Where does the glucose in animal cells ocme from?

Animals get the glucose in their cells through plants. They obtain the glucose by eating the plants and absorbing their glucose and energy.


Do animals use chlorophyll to produce glucose?

No, it's an exclusive attribute of plants. Plants contain chlorophyll (it's what makes them green), which through the process of photosynthesis produces glucose. Animals get glucose from plants.


What is the main scource of glucose for animals?

Animals, even humans, get glucose from plants that are eaten. Carnivorous animals get glucose from other animals that are eaten. All plants use cellulose for mostly structural purposes, but cellulose is 100% glucose. Fruits are a fine source of fructose, another type of sugar molecule.


Is a light dependent process conducted by green plants but not by animals?

Photosynthesis occurs in plants, but not in animals.


Explain the symbiotic relationship between plants and animals?

Plants give off oxygen for animals to breathe and animals exhale CO2 which plants use to make glucose and take out more oxygen. Then animals eat plants to get glucose and when they die or defecate, they leave nitrogenous wastes which are eaten by plants (absorption through roots).


How are we dependent on plants?

Plants make oxygen and energy(glucose) which we consume when we eat plants or animals that ate plants.


What do plants provide to animals A glucose B glucose and oxygen C carbon dioxide D oxygen E glucose and carbon dioxide?

B glucose (when animals eating the plant) and oxygen (from being near the plants).Plants provide:food from leaves, berries, flowers, stems, roots=> glucose => energyinsects and grubs to eat, if the animals eat insects/grubs => energyoxygen and removes the CO2 the animal breathes outnesting materials for birds and small gameprotection and camouflage


How do living organisms store glucose?

In plants,glucose is stored as starch.In animals and fungi,stored as Glycogen.


How did the carbon cycle begin?

plants take in carbon dioxide and produce glucose animals consume plants animals break down glucose and release carbon dioxide


What 3 things make glucose for organisms?

Photosynthesis: plants, algae, and some bacteria convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into glucose. Cellular respiration: organisms break down glucose in their cells to produce energy through a series of metabolic reactions. Eating food: animals obtain glucose by consuming plants or other animals that contain glucose in their tissues.


In the terms of nutrition the functional difference between animals and plants is that green plants are able to?
