Eggs are a good source of protein. Egg yolks have about half of the protein, but also contain substantial cholesterol, which may be a dietary concern. There are prepared egg substitutes that reduce this content.

Egg white is about 10% protein (with the remainder being mostly water), of which a bit over half is a protein called albumen.
Eggs are rich source of proteins that supply essential amino acids to our body. Especially the white has about 4g of protein (low calories) and the yolk contains about 2.7g of proteins.
About 13g of protein can be found in 100g of egg
(all the values are given for chicken eggs)*
Eggs have a small amount of iron. It is about 5% of daily values. They have 37% protein. The zinc is trace amounts.
Protein is not a starch.
No. A protein is a chain of amino acids (a polypeptide). Starch is a carbohydrate (a large number of glucose molecules joined together).
To test starch: To test starch you take the food sample, and add iodine solution if the colour turns black this means starch is present. To test for protein: To test for protein, you take the food sample and add Biuret A and Biuret B and shake, if the colour turns lilac this means that protein is present.
Fat polymers usually vary in length and size, and starch is typically coiled. The protein polymers are round and oddly shaped.
Protein is a building block. Eggs can become chickens.
Protein is not a starch.
eggs do not contain starch, they have carbs, like fat in a way, so there is no starch in a egg
No. Although rice contains a little protein, it is made primarily of starch. One cup of cooked rice contains 5 grams of protein.
Starch is a carbohydrate
No
a sugar starch protein
All flowers (food) has starch and protein
Eggs contain protein but not all protein is made of eggs.
Because Pepsin is the active form of a protein manufactured in the stomach.
A protein molecule is quite a bit larger than a starch molecule.
They have starch, protein, and other nutrients such as vitamins and minerals.
