ULTIMATELY, [...] from photosynthesis provides the vast majority of chemical energy to living things. (However that [...] may have been converted to starch or fats long before it got to you). | ULTIMATELY, Glucose from photosynthesis provides the vast majority of chemical energy to living things. (However that glucose may have been converted to starch or fats long before it got to you). |
