a large surface area to absorb more light
thin to allow gases to diffuse easily
veins that contain the xylem and phloem
guard cells to regulate gas exchange

Question 6

how plants use glucose
(forsaac)

Answer 6

Fats and oils- glucose produces these for storage
Respiration- glucose is broken down to release energy
Starch- glucose is converted into starch
