Question
sugar has many uses in organisms, structural and functional. at its basic (smallest) level, sugar is often used for (1 point)
capturing light for photosynthesis
carrying signals between cells
building proteins
creating atp in cellular respiration
Sugar (glucose) is broken - down during cellular respiration to produce ATP, the energy - currency of the cell. It is not involved in capturing light for photosynthesis (done by pigments like chlorophyll), carrying cell - to - cell signals (usually done by molecules like hormones), or building proteins (amino acids are building blocks of proteins).
