sugar is carried to the different parts of the plant
Boiling a rheo leaf in water will extract chlorophyll and other soluble pigments, giving the water a green color. When you then place the boiled leaf in a concentrated sugar solution, osmosis will occur, where water moves from the leaf's cells into the sugar solution, potentially causing the leaf to become limp or shriveled. Additionally, the high sugar concentration may inhibit further cellular processes in the leaf. This experiment demonstrates the effects of osmosis and the interaction between plant cells and hypertonic solutions.
Sugar in a tree is primarily produced in the leaves through the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, chlorophyll in the leaves captures sunlight, which is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, a simple sugar. This glucose is then transported throughout the tree to provide energy and support growth. The process occurs mainly in the chloroplasts of the leaf cells.
A sugar maple leaf typically has 3-5 lobes with rounded corners.
transports sugars
The sugar produced at the end of photosynthesis is glucose.
sugar is carried to different parts of the leaf
Glucose
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.
During the process of photosynthesis, the sugar produced in the leaf (glucose) is converted to sucrose and then transported out of the leaf via the phloem tissue. The sugar is translocated to other parts of the plant where it is used for energy or stored for later use.
some of the sugar is consumed by the plant while the remaining sugar is left at the stem to be stored as starch

If there was a drought, the amount of sugar produced would likely decrease. Drought conditions can stress plants, leading to reduced growth and yield. This can result in lower sugar content in crops such as sugarcane or sugar beets.
Carbon starts out as a simple organic molecule, Carbon Dioxide. The leaf changes it into sugar, which is not a simple compound. It takes the sugar and changes that into a whole lot of different compounds.
