How do green plants store energy ?

Open in App

Solution

Plants store carbohydrates in long poly-saccharides chains called starch.
It is a complex carbohydrate that can be broken down into a simple carbohydrate (glucose) for the plant to use for energy. Plant cells store starch in storage organelles as all cells do.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.
