The starch comes from CO2 in the atmosphere. It is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Also found in the choloplasts.
What else can I help you with?
Does all cells contain starch?
No , starch is inside of most plant cells and there is alot in roots , but very few animal cells have starch.
What is the function of starch in the cells?
The function of starch in plant cells is primarily the storage, and then the releasing, of biochemical energy.
Is starch found in plant cells?
Yes.
Do animal cells have a starch grain?
Cellulose is not an animal starch. It comes from the cell walls of plant cells.
Plant cells cannot change glucose to starch.?
Incorrect. Plant cells can convert glucose to starch for storage using an enzyme called starch synthase. Starch serves as the primary form of stored energy in plants.
Which carbohydrates is an essential constituent of plant cells?
STARCH
Plant cells change starch into sugar?
False
What plant cells store glucose as a polysaccharide?
starch
Is the starch grains in both (Animal and Plant cells)?
Starch grains are primarily found in plant cells, where they serve as a form of energy storage. Animals do not store energy as starch; instead, they primarily store energy in the form of glycogen. While some animal cells can contain small amounts of starch due to dietary intake or specific metabolic processes, it is not a typical characteristic of animal cells. Therefore, starch grains are not present in both animal and plant cells.
Is starch found in plant or animal cells?
Starch is primarily found in plant cells as a storage form of energy. It is produced through photosynthesis and stored in organelles called amyloplasts. Animal cells do not typically contain starch but store energy in the form of glycogen.
What do plant cells use light energy to make?
starch
When iodine solution is dropped onto plant cells why do dark blue spots appear?
The dark blue spots appear when iodine solution is dropped onto plant cells because iodine reacts with starch in the cells to form a blue-black complex. Starch, which is a polysaccharide made up of glucose units, is stored in plant cells as a source of energy. The dark blue color indicates the presence of starch in the cells.
