In photosynthesis, the energy from the sun eventually gets converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and sugar that the plant can use directly to fuel its biological processes. Which of the following correctly describes how plants use glucose after it is produced? Answers:
Glucose enters the mitochondria for production of ATP.

Solar energy breaks apart glucose forming pyruvate.

The energy in glucose is never used by the plant.

Glucose is broken down into its components ATP and H ions.

Glucose enters the mitochondria for production of ATP.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process through which solar energy is used to make glucose.

To generate chemical energy for cellular processes, glucose is broken down through cellular respiration in the mitochondria. This generates large amounts of ATP, which acts a source of energy to power reactions in the cell.

Excess glucose is stored as starch in plant cells

interphase

the period of cell growth when the cell synthesizes new molecules and organelles. the cell is not dividing and it constitutes the majority of the time spent in the cell cycle

prophase

changes occur in the nucleus and cytoplasm. the chromatin condenses to form structures (sister chromatids) visible with a light microscope and the mitotic spindle begins to form, but the nucleus is still in tact

prometaphase

the nuclear envelope fragments and the spindle microtubules attach to the kinetochores of the sister chromatids

metaphase

all the cell's duplicated chromosomes are lined up at an imaginary plane equidistant between the poles of the mitotic spindle

anaphase

begins when sister chromatids separate from each other and ending when a complete set of daughter chromosomes arrives at each of the two poles of the cell

telophase

the daughter nuclei form at the two poles of a cell

cytokinesis

the division of a cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells. usually occurs during telophase during mitosis. this and mitosis make up to mitotic (m) phase of the cell cycle
