Explanation:

Sucrose is formed in the cytosol of photosynthesizing cells from fructose and glucose and is then transported to other parts of the plant. This process is favorable for two reasons: Sucrose contains more energy than a monosaccharide, so it is more energy efficient, both in transport as in storage
