Question

How is unused energy stored in plants and animals?

Answer 1

The unused energy is stored by plants in the form of starch, known better as carbohydrate.

While animals use a glucose polymer to store the unused energy which is also called Glycogen.

For long-term energy storage plants use nucleotide and animals use lipids to store the energy within them.
