Glucose!!
The primary role of carbohydrates is to supply energy to all cells in the body. Many cells prefer glucose as a source of energy versus other compounds like fatty acids.
These cycles consist of the water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles. All of these elements (and one compound) are cycled through living things and the soil, providing energy and carbon for all living things.

The advantage of shedding broad leaves in the winter is to conserve the energy that needs to expand in order to provide heat to each part of the plant including leaves as in winters it becomes very dry and cold. If they do not shed their leaves they have to spend more energy to spend energy on leaves.
Needles like leaves have a thick cuticle layer that prevents from losing water in dry conditions or conditions with a limited amount of water in the soil. These leaves also help in photosynthesis by capturing more sunlight as they have a larger surface area. These adaptions can live in poor soil, rain and snowy conditions.
This technique is called cystoureterography
