Sugar in small quantities will actually help a plant grow, however in excess or over too long a period it can result in the death of the plant.
Excess sugar in the soil can change the water potential around the roots which causes osmosis to stop functioning properly. It can also result in the buildup of bacterial colonies around the roots of plants as sugar is a good medium for bacterail growth.
They are broken down in respiration. Energy is obtained by that
it will help them last longer
There is no formula for sugar. Sugar comes from plants. Sugar cane or beets are the plants that is made into sugar. Sugar is primarily sucrose with the formula C12H22O11.
the sugar produced by photosynthesis is the plants 'food.' it is the point of the process. plants 'do' photosynthesis to get sugar, which they 'consume' in a way.
The chemical process by which plants use sunlight to produce sugar is called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants use light energy, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose (sugar) and oxygen. This process takes place in chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll, the pigment that captures light energy.

They take the sun's energy and with chloroplasts (which make plants green) turn the sun's energy into sugar.
plants absorb light to produce sugar which they use as food
Plants make their own food by the photosynthesis process. Plants convert sunlight into glucose, or sugar, the food of plants. This happens in the chlorophyll of leaves.
Not really, sugar is made by plants - animals eat the plants to get this sugar.
Carrot roots store sugar that is produced by photosynthesis in the leaves.
Sugar doesn't come from a seed. The sugar cane and the sugar beet are the two best known plants to make sugar. These plants like all plants are grown from seeds, but as stated above sugar does not come from a seed.

Yes, sugar canes are plants. They are a member of the grass family.
Plants make sugar by photosynthesis. Most plants make there own sugar from sunight, air and material absorbed from the ground by the roots. The sugar is used to help the plant grow and flourish. We extract the sugar from the plants for our own use. Examples are common cane sugar from the sugar cane plant, beet sugar from beets, wheat sugar (dextrose), and from corn we get corn sweeteners.
no it does not effect plants.
