Question

3. The end product of photosynthesis is glucose, then why we say starch is formed during photosynthesis?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The end product of photosynthesis is glucose and oxygen but we say that starch is formed because the glucose that is produced at the end of this process is stored in the form of starch in plants. So, starch is indirectly obtained from photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Several glucose molecules are transformed to produce one molecule of starch , this process is called polymerisation.Most green plants convert glucose into starch as soon as it is formed during photosynthesis .Hence , due to this Starch can be called as the ‘immediate product of photosynthesis.’
