Is starch stored in leaves of some plants?
after the plant photosynthesises, it has some left over glucose that the leaves covert into starch. The starch is then stored in the chlorophyl (the green pigment in the leaves). At night or in the dark, the plant can't photosynthesise so it respires the stored starch instead

Iodine. If you ever get iodine on your clothing, it will leave a permanent stain because of the starch.

What is the aim of testing for the presence of starch?
Aim: To find out if light is needed for the production of starch through photosynthesis. Hypothesis: Light is needed for Starch production in a Geranium leaf. Apparatus: 2 100 mL beakers 1 Petri dish 1 Geranium leaf 2 Paper Clips 1 Piece of Foil Boiling water Methylated Spirits iodine Hot Plate Method 1. Cover half of the geranium leaf with foil, using two paperclips to secure it on. 2. Leave in direct light for 1 week. 3. Uncover the leaf and place it in a 100mL beaker 4. Put boiling water in the beaker just enough to cover the leaf and leave for 30 seconds. 5. Place the leaf in the other 100mL beaker, cover with methylated spirits. Use the hot plate to keep the methylated spirits just below boiling point. Keep at this temperature until the leaf has lost all its green colour. 6. Place the leaf in the petri dish and cover with iodine. Watch the colour difference between both sides. Record the results (see below). The dark colour is the presence of starch
