Question

if glucose formed as a result of photosynthesis is easily soluble in water can plants store glucose ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Since glucose is easily soluble in water it cannot be stored in plant body. Therefore, plants store glucose in the form of insoluble starch in leaves.

Answer 2

Answer:

Glucose formed as a result of photosynthesis is easily soluble in water that is a known result but as provided in question the PLANTS can't store Glucose in the same state.

1. Glucose is the instantaneous product of photosynthesis that plants use, and excess glucose is stored in the form of starch in the leaves.
2. Because glucose is used up, its presence cannot be detected. However, because starch is easily detected in plants, its production is frequently used as a measure of photosynthesis in leaves.
3. Plants produce very little free glucose; instead, glucose units are linked to form starch or joined with another sugar, fructose, to form sucrose.
4. As a result, if glucose is formed at the end of photosynthesis, which is water soluble, plants cannot store Glucose as it is because Glucose formed during photosynthesis is converted into starch immediately after photosynthesis is completed.
