    These organisms are veritable sugar factories‚ producing millions of new glucose molecules per second. Plants use much of this glucose‚ a carbohydrate‚ as an energy source to build leaves‚ flowers‚ fruits‚ and seeds. They also convert glucose to cellulose‚ the structural material used in their cell walls. Most plants produce more glucose than they use‚ however‚ and they store it in the form of starch and other carbohydrates in roots‚ stems‚ and leaves. The plants can then draw on these reserves for
