Fate of glucose produced in photosynthesis

Question 1

List 4 things yk abt glucose

Answer 1

1) Used in respiration to make energy : C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
2) Stored in leaf cells as starch
3) Converted into other organic substances eg. Amino acids, proteins, vitamins, chlorophyll
4) Converted to sucrose and transported via phloem to other parts of plant. The sucrose can then be converted into glucose (respiration), cellulose (cell walls), starch (stored), amino acids and proteins (nitrogen added; growth), lipids (stored eg seeds).
