Cellulose is usually described by chemists and biologists as a complex carbohydrate (pronounced car-bow-HI-drayt). Carbohydrates are organic compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen that function as sources of energy for living things. Plants are able to make their own carbohydrates that they use for energy and to build their cell walls. According to how many atoms they have, there are several different types of carbohydrates, but the simplest and most common in a plant is glucose. Plants make glucose (formed by photosynthesis) to use for energy or to store as starch for later use. A plant uses glucose to make cellulose when it links many simple units of glucose together to form long chains. These long chains are called polysaccharides (meaning "many sugars" Read more: Cellulose - humans, body, used, water, process, Earth, plants, chemical, form, energy, animals, carbon, oxygen, cells, primary, substance, plant, basic, surface http://www.scienceclarified.com/Ca-Ch/Cellulose.html#ixzz1bfF3wdGb
