Some have and some not... But we say mostly non green leavesπ do not have.. ππ³π²πβοΈπΏπ±
No because the starch make the green in the green leafs
A non-green leaf lacking chloroplasts will not be able to synthesize food which later on gets converted into starch. So it will not show the presence of starch in the test.
not a clue mate
it will not turn blue black
No, photosynthesis cannot occur in the non-green parts of variegated leaves because photosynthesis needs chlorophyll to occur, and the non-green parts of the plants lack chlorophyll.
You can perform an experiment to show that chlorophyll is necessary by using a a potted plant having variegated leaves.(This ia a leaf having several different colours) Destarch the plant by keeping it in the dark for several days. During this time, no more starch is made and the starch present is used up in respiration. The plant is then placed in strong sulinght fo a few hours. Remove one leaf and test for starch with iodine solution. You will notice that the non-green parts of the leaf turns reddish brown due to the absence of starch. However, the green parts of the leaf turns blue black confirming the presence of starch. Hence, it is demonstrated that chlorophyll is needed in plants.
Plants with non green leaves do have chlorophyll and do carry out photosynthesis. It is just that the chlorophyll is masked by other pigments.
Plants with non-green leaves have chlorophyll and do carry out the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS. It is just that the chlorophyll is masked by other pigment.
YES. Non-starch Polysaccharides.
When conducting a starch test green and non-green leaves will react differently. Non-green leaves will not change color, remaining the same. However, green leaves will darken to black or nearly black color.

kritika chauhan- no. you can imitate a test .put 10 drops of dilute iodine solution on it. if it turns blue black than it contains starch. a blue black color indicate presence of starch in a food item. if you will do this test for a non green leaf it will be negative.
they depend on other plants Non-green leaves have other photosynthetic pigments like carotene and xanthophyll in their plastids which help in the process of photosynthesis.

There are mainly Caratinoids. They are Xanthophyll and Carotene mainly.
