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.

Answer:

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
