After the energy from sunlight, glucose is probably the most important molecule on earth. In photosynthesis, energy from sunlight is converted into chemical energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose. But sunlight remains the ultimate source of energy for almost all species on the earth.

How much more energy does glucose store than ATP?
90 times more energy
Why does glucose have more potential energy than water?
because it is bigger and can store more energy
Plants store extra glucose in the form of?
Plants store glucose in the form of starch. Glucose is also converted to a range of other substances. Two notable examples are the conversion of glucose to fats/oils for seeds and the conversion of glucose to sucrose for transportation.
Which molecule do plants use to store extra glucose?
Glucose can be stored in plants in several ways. In some plants , the glucose molecules join to one another to form starch molecules. Some plants convert glucose to fructose and the energy is stored in this form. In other plants, fructose combines with glucose to form sucrose. The energy is stored in carbohydrates in this form. Plant cells obtain energy for their activities from these molecules.
What is the ability to do work?
Energy
Which process is directly used by autotrophs to store energy in glucose?
Photosynthesis is used by autotrophs to store energy in glucose.
Why does a plant need to make glucose?
glucose is the primary source of energy. ATP's cannot store a lot of energy so the plats use glucose (C6H12O6) to store their energy.
What parts of chloroplast store the chemical energy in glucose molecules?
Stroma of the chloroplast store the chemical energy in glucose molecules.
Does glucose store chemical energy?
yes it does Glucose stores chemical energy in a concentrated, stable form.
Where do corn plant store their energy?
Corn plants store energy (glucose) in their thick stems.
The carbohydrate that plants use to store energy is called?
Plants store energy in the form of Glucose
What do mitochondria store when they burn glucose?
They store energy in ATP.CO2 and water is removed.
Can the mitochondria store and transfer energy?
Mitochondria release energy of glucose. This energy is stored in ATP
Which substance is used by the body to store energy?
Answer: Glucose is one. Answer: Glucose, fat, and carbohydrates.
What is the chemical that plants use to store energy?
This chemical is glucose.
Does mitochondria release or store energy?
It release energy. It releases using Glucose (C6H12O6) and Oxygen (O2).Mitochondria release energy in glucose. Then it stores this energy in ATP
What energy does the body store from eating food?
The body uses glucose as energy. Excess glucose is stored as fat (in animals) and as starch (in plants).
