Plant Glucose Uses Worksheet
Glucose: a useful starting material
Plants make glucose in their leaves using light energy. The word equation is: carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen. A plant can use glucose in several ways: release energy in respiration; convert it to starch for storage; join glucose molecules to make cellulose for cell walls; or combine glucose with nitrate ions absorbed from the soil to make amino acids, which are used to build proteins.
