Questions and Answers

Which molecule is responsible for transferring light energy into chemical energy during photosynthesis?

  • Glucose
  • Sucrose
  • Starch
  • Chlorophyll (correct)
  • What happens to glucose in a plant after it is synthesized during photosynthesis?

  • It is converted to starch for storage
  • It is converted to sucrose for transport (correct)
  • It is used to produce chlorophyll
  • It is broken down into carbon dioxide and water
  • Why is glucose converted to sucrose before being transported in a plant?

  • Sucrose is a more efficient energy storage molecule
  • Sucrose is less likely to be broken down by enzymes
  • Glucose is too reactive to be transported on its own (correct)
  • Sucrose is easier to synthesize than glucose
  • Why is glucose converted to starch for storage in a plant?
