Baking powder is a "leavening agent" that makes cakes rise. Baking soda and cream of tartar together do the same job -- they react to make carbon dioxide gas. If you try to make cupcakes without either baking soda, or the combination of baking soda and cream of tartar, your cupcakes will not rise and you will get something close to cookies. Corn starch is a thickener and acts similarly to flour. If you have flour, corn starch may not be necessary.
