What plant organ holds up the leaves of the plant?

STEMS, like leaves, are plants organs. xylem and phloem are in the roots, stem, and leaves. XYLEM is the tissue are tubes that carry materials from the roots to the leaves. PHLOEM is tubes that carry sugar away from the leaves.


Is there a decorative garden plant like sugar cane with thick stems and green and purple leaves with stems said to be a source of sugar and edible like sugar cane?

Why not just plant sugar cane? It will come up year after year even after a freeze. Old varieties like blue ribbon are the best.


What happens to the sugar produced in the leaves of a plant?

The sugar produced in the leaves of a plant is transported down to the roots, stems, and other parts of the plant through specialized tubes called phloem. This sugar is used as a source of energy for growth, maintenance, and reproduction in different parts of the plant.


How is sugar extracted from sugar cane?

The sugar cane stems are cut and taken to the processing plant where they are crushed. During crushing, a liquid if forced out of the stems. The liquid is separated from the remains of the crushed stems by a machine which spins the mixture. During the spinning, the solid stems stay in the machine and the liquid is spun out through holes, rather like the spin cycle of a washing machine. The liquid spun out of this machine is removed and taken to a different part of the plant where it is heated. During this process, water disappears and crystals of sugar form.The waste plant material left after the extraction of sugar used to be disposed of by burning, a process that produced a great deal of polluting smoke, solid particles and carbon dioxide. Today, much of this waste material is being used to produce useful ethanol and polymers (plastics).


What plants have big stems?

Plants such as bamboo, banana trees, and sunflowers are known for having big stems. These plants have thick, sturdy stems that provide support for their height and weight. Additionally, plants like corn and sugar cane also have big stems which store water and nutrients for the plant.


What is sugar cane made out of?

Sugar cane is a type of plant that is grown and then harvested into sugar. Sugar cane is a sub-tropical crop of tall plants with very thick stems. The stems are harvested and they are crushed in order to extract the sweet juice. The juice is purified and the water content is boiled off. Eventually the process reaches a stage when sugar crystals grow. The results are a brown raw sugar that resembles the sweet brown sugar used to make baked goods.


How do the minerals are absorbed and reach to all parts of the plants?

Stem is the only one that will transport the water,food,mineral salts and sugar(food) to all parts of the plant. Because of stems,the water and mineral salts get to the leaves and other parts of a plant.


What reacts chemically inside the chloroplast?

CO2 and H2O react with sunliught and clorophil to make sugar and oxygen. the plant uses the sugar for the energy for the cell.


What is glucose (sugar) used for by a plant?

A monosaccharide sugar originating in plants and used in animals to carry energy throughout the body, just as sucrose is the main carrier of energy throughout the plant. It is prepared industrially by the hydrolysis of starch.


How do water and mineral salts get to the leaves and other parts of the plant?

Stem is the only one that will transport the water,food,mineral salts and sugar(food) to all parts of the plant. Because of stems,the water and mineral salts get to the leaves and other parts of a plant.


How is the sugar produced by photosynthesis transported from the leaf?

The sugar produced by photosynthesis in the leaf is transported through a network of tubes called phloem. These tubes carry the sugar to other parts of the plant where it is needed for energy or storage.


How do plants store sugar for kids?

Plants store sugar mainly in the form of starch, which is a long chain of glucose molecules. They produce sugar during photosynthesis in their leaves and then transport it to other parts of the plant, like roots and stems, where it can be stored. This stored starch can be broken down into sugar later when the plant needs energy to grow or survive. It's like saving energy for a rainy day!
