To put it in the dark for many hours
Nope, this is from a tapioca plant which is gluten free.
A STARCH is a bigger form of glucose.glucose is the product when the plant make food.
Carbon dioxide, of course. Starch is a polymer of glucose.

No. Only plants can contain/make starch. If the chicken for instance eats corn (which comes from a plant) the starch will be in their body but will be broken down for energy, but if they don't need that starch it turn into fat.
No, starch does not contain cholesterol. Cholesterol is a type of lipid found only in animal products, while starch is a carbohydrate primarily found in plant-based foods. Foods high in starch, such as grains, potatoes, and legumes, are cholesterol-free.
the starch is for food when needed
Most plants store energy in the form of starch. The process of photosynthesis allows plants to convert the sun's energy into glucose, which is then converted into starch. The plant can then break the starch back down whenever energy is needed.
The plant that stores a lot of starch is the potato. Potatoes are tubers that have a high starch content, making them a good source of energy.
No, plants do not require soil to make starch. Starch is synthesized during photosynthesis, where plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce glucose, which is then stored as starch in various plant parts such as roots, stems, and leaves. Soil provides nutrients and support for the plant but is not directly involved in the production of starch.
You would test the leaves of the plant for starch. Starch is produced through photosynthesis in the leaves, so they are the best part of the plant to test for the presence of this carbohydrate.
The starch grains mainly contain starch which is produced from photosynthesis
