DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Most life on Earth depends on photosynthesis. The process is carried out by plants, algae, and some types of bacteria, which capture energy from sunlight to produce oxygen (O2) and chemical energy stored in glucose (a sugar).

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose is a sugar that plays a vital role in the metabolism of most living organisms. It is manufactured by plants and certain bacteria and protists during photosynthesis. Glucose is the main source of chemical energy for cell functions in organisms from bacteria and plants to humans.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sugar is nature’s way of storing the sun’s energy. Light energy is converted into the chemical energy of the bonds in this molecule. Sugar can be converted into many other molecules that we use as fuels.

Detailed explanation-4: -Our cells use glucose (C6H12O6) to obtain energy in a chemical reaction called cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-5: -What are the products of photosynthesis? The process can be summarized as: glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water. During this process, the energy stored in glucose is transferred to ATP. Energy is stored in the bonds between the phosphate groups (PO4-) of the ATP molecule.
