Question

Plants are best known for their ability to perform photosynthesis, the process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. But plants don’t just make sugars; they use them, too. Like animals, plants must break sugars down to fuel cellular work. In this activity, you will complete a concept map showing the interrelatedness of sugar production and sugar breakdown in a plant cell.Which two of the following molecules are products of chloroplasts?
a. sugar
b. amino acid
c. oxygen gas
d. carbon dioxide

Answer 1

Answer: Sugar and oxygen

Explanation:

The producers are plants that use carbon dioxide and water to convert it glucose. During this process not only glucose is produced, oxygen is also released into the atmosphere as a by-product of this process.

The Oxygen that is released into the environment is the excess oxygen that is not used by the plants for the process of cellular respiration.

The glucose that is made by the plants is used in this form, it is converted into adenosine tri phosphate for the plants to use.

Hence, the correct options are sugar and oxygen.
