Gas and Bloating as Symptoms of Cancer. While it's too big of a leap to suggest that gas and bloating are early warning systems for cancer, they can, in fact, be the first sign if they are persistent and/or getting worse.
Glucose helps plants to have strong cell walls and tissues. The plant uses part of its glucose supply to form fiber, or cellulose. Besides giving the plant structure in the stems and leaves, plant cellulose provides humans and animals with an important source of dietary fiber. Plants also transform glucose into starches and fats.
Background Information: Green plants use sunlight to make glucose. To do so, the plant must use carbon dioxide and water in a process called photosynthesis. The glucose made by plants is used by plants and animals as a source of energy. To release the energy contained in the bonds of glucose, the glucose must be converted to ATP.
