If plant sap has as much sugar as a can of soda, do you think that if you bit into a plant’s leaves or stems, would it taste sweet? Why or why not?

Respuesta :

Answer:

No

Explanation:

If plant sap has as much sugar as a can of soda, they will not taste sweet if one bit into their stems of leaves.

This is because most plants do not store sugar, which is the product of photosynthesis, in leaves or stems. The few ones that store their photosynthetic products in leaves/stems do not store them directly as sweet sugar. They often stored them as starch which is not generally sweet in taste.

Hence, plant's leaves/stems will not taste sweet even if they have as much sugar as a can of soda.
