Explain the partitioning of fixed carbon to sucrose and starch synthesis in leaf cells
Partitioning of Fixed Carbon to Sucrose and Starch in Leaf Cells Introduction Photosynthesis in leaf cells results in the fixation of atmospheric CO₂ into carbohydrates. The two primary end-products of photosynthetic carbon assimilation are sucrose and starch. Sucrose serves as the major transport form of carbohydrates, while starch is a temporary storage form in chloroplasts. […]
