The stored starch is a by-product of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis produces glucose; plants can convert and store excess glucose as starch. Both sugar and starch are types of carbohydrates.

What gas is needed by the seed during germination?

Oxygen gas is needed by the seed during germination. Aerobic respiration takes place during seed germination to release lots of energy required for this process.

What is starch used for during germination?

In the endosperm of a seed, there is a storage of starch which provides energy, required during germination. To tap into this energy and make it available to the embryo of the seed, the starch is first hydrolysed by an enzyme (alpha amylase) and converted into maltose (a disaccharide), then in turn, maltose is hydrolysed by the enzyme maltase to form glucose (a monosaccharide). The resulting glucose can then provide energy in the form of ATP and be used for growth by the embryo of the seed. Hope this helps.


How is electrical energy recovered?

In short, by connecting electricity to a 'load', you are converting it to another type of energy. Some examples: Motor-electrical energy to mechanical energy (with heat byproduct) Lamp-electrical energy to light energy (with heat byproduct) Heater coil-electrical energy to heat energy (with light byproduct) Speaker-electrical energy to sound energy (with heat byproduct) The list goes on. Notice that most changes produce heat, even when they are not the intended target energy. This is because nothing is perfectly efficient, and some energy is lost as heat in the conversion process.


Which form of energy is commonly created as a byproduct when energy changes from one form to another?
