use iodine- in the presents of starch it changes color, best in a testube, but you can inject it into a potato and get something simular. try putting iodine in the plants water or somering simular.

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.
Does tea effect plant germination?
Yes it does affect plant germination. I carried out an experiment on Phaseolus vulgaris L. (Green Bean) and through the collection of biomass, I found out that it does affect.
What color develops when I2KI reacts with starch?
Blue-Green
What plant produce starch?
In order for plants to make starch, they need some vital factors including; chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and light. Light turns into chemical energy by chlorophyll or chloroplasts (organelles) which forms a chemical reaction that is stored as glucose, the glucose then turns into starch. light Carbon dioxide + water >>>>>>>>>>> Glucose + oxygen
How green plants manufacture starch?
because only green parts of plants contains chlorophyll and can perform photosynthesis. perhaps that's why starch is store in them.but not only starch,plant waste products r also stored in leaves so as to remove wastes easilt as leaves shed off easily during automn.
Which plants store starch?
All green plants store starch
What happens to starch in banana when it gose from green to ripe?
The starch is converted into glucose.
What kinds of organisms makes starch?
Organisms such as green plants produce starch.

What color is glucose when lugol's iodine is added?
I did this lab experiment in my biology class. When Lugol's indicator is added to glucose, it turns to a dark green colour for starch it turns black and for surcose it turns yellow.
What happened a non green leaf is tested for starch?
A non-green leaf lacking chloroplasts will not be able to synthesize food which later on gets converted into starch. So it will not show the presence of starch in the test.
Would starch be found in leaves that are neither green nor white?
yes there would be starch in it
Do green beans have starch in it?
yes black beans have carbohydrates in them!
Do non green leaves have starch present in them?
Some have and some not... But we say mostly non green leaves🍂 do not have.. 🍃🌳🌲🍀☘️🌿🌱
Does the fruits of green plants store starch?
no, only green plants with red leaves
What would be the conclusion after testing a leaf for starch?
Starch is produced by leaves during Photosynthesis, therefore if the leaf has not been exposed to light then it will not contain starch, and so when tested the Iodine will stay Yellow/Brown. Consequently if the leaf has been left in the light Photosynthesis will have taken place and when tested the Iodine will go Blue/Black showing that Starch is present. Hope this helps :)
