What happens to this sugar in a plant cell?
All living things are made of cells. What are the main structural differences between animal cells and plant cells? Do both plant and animal cells make ATP in the mitochondria? Chloroplasts give plants the ability to make their own sugar (food).

In a plant cell, sugar is used as a source of energy for various cellular processes. It can be broken down through cellular respiration in mitochondria to produce ATP, which is the main energy currency of the cell.

During respiration, the plant takes those sugars from the sinks and “burns” them to create the energy needed for growth and metabolism

R-The difference between animal cells and plant cells is.......A-that only plant cells have a cell wall and animal cells dont and yes animal cells and plant cells have APT in the mitochondria the mitochondria in animals and plants act to produce the the ordered ATP molecules as the eçnergy supply for the process of life C in the video it says -"animal and plant cells have cell membranes only plant cells have a cell wall" it also says "the mitochondria in animals and plants act to produce the ordered ATP molecules as the energy supply for the processes in life" E- this explains how the animal and plant cells in the mitochondria produce molecules as energy for the process of life and and also the difference between animal and plant cells
