What observations do you need to expect if starch is present when testing leaf for starch?
It can be observed that when testing for starch their must be a olour change of blue black after iodine solution was added.Before the colour change was green that changed to blue black of the whole procedure is been carried out.
What would happen if you added water to a starch molecule?
the water then appears coulerless
Is starch added to water at room temperature a true solution?
white turbid solution
What are food thickeners made from?
Mostly enzymes or starch molecules which thicken whilst heat or liquid is added.
What happened to the starch solution after you have added saliva?
Saliva contains enzymes which catalyse the breakdown of starch to maltose and dextrin. If starch solution is treated with saliva, these simpler sugars will soon start to form, which means the mixture will give the Benedict's test.
What happens when iodine is added to starch and distilled water?
As you know that iodine act as indicator for testing of starch so when a drop of iodine is added to starch it turns bluish black but when added to distilled water nothing happens except the colour of water which turns brown and its is the colour of iodine.

Does wheat contains sugar?
Wheat flour doesn't contain sugar. Sugar can be released if enzymes are present. Some flour has enzymes added to it (as malted barley flour) to help break down the starch into sugars so yeast can grow better.

Why does the digisition of starch stops when food reaches the stomach?
Carbohydrate digestion happens mostly in the mouth and esophagus, surprisingly. This combines with the fact that the enzymes in saliva that cause digestion stop functioning when they reach the stomach.
