What does a plant NOT use glucose for?
|
|
cell wall formation (cellulose)
|
|
|
ATP production
|
|
|
starch production to store energy over the winter
|
|
|
phospholipid production
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Phospholipid biosynthesis and distribution within plant cells. The biosynthesis of phospholipids occurs primarily in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where a fatty acid chain is transferred from acyl-CoA to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) resulting in the formation of phosphatic acid (PA) (Figure 1) [15].
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: If plants were unable to supply glucose, that would cause a food crisis in the ecosystem.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch. Cellulose is used in building cell walls. Starch is stored in seeds and other plant parts as a food source.
