SO WHAT HAPPENS TO THE GLUCOSE PRODUCED BY
PHOTOSYNTHESIS?
respiration
salts
phloem
starch
carbon dioxide
nitrates oils
amino acids
cellulose
water
glucose
soil
Green plants and algae can make all the materials they need from _______________,
___________ ______________ and ______________. The glucose produced by
photosynthesis in the leaves is rapidly converted into ________________ or even
________ for storage.
Sugar can be transported around the plant in the ____________ and it can be used to
provide energy by _________________. It can also be stored as starch (in potatoes)
or sugar in some fruits. The plant also needs ___________ for its cell walls,
_____________ for cell membranes and proteins for cytoplasm. All of these are
produced from _____________ molecules produced by photosynthesis. As well as
glucose, nitrates are also needed for the production of _________ ___________ and
hence proteins. The nitrates will be absorbed from _____________. All of these
chemical processes need energy from respiration to make them happen.
