Starch is found in plants as a energy store. They make simple sugars such as glucose when there is need of energy. Starch uses the protein beta amylase to be degraded in to simple sugar molecules.

∙ 7y agoYes it does.
Starch is a complex carbohydrate.It does not contain proteins
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoYes. Starches usually have a small amount of protein, with a lot of carbohydrates.

∙ 13y agoStarch does function as an energy storage for plant cells, but it's not a protein; it's a carbohydrate
Wiki User
∙ 8y agono, it's a complex type of carbohydrate
