The catechol rapidly oxidizes the potato
It is because the enzyme facilitates a reaction between catechol and oxidase. In the presence of oxygen, the compound catechol is oxidized by the removal of two hydrogen atoms. Catechol is thus converted to benzoquinone, and oxygen is reduced by the addition of two hydrogen atoms to form water. Benzoquinone molecules then link together to form long, branched chains. These chains are the structural backbones fo the read and brown melanoid pigments that cause the darkening. The intensity of the colour depends on the amount of the coloured product formed.
because it is yummy :)
MSG is added to potato crisps because it give the flavored

When crushed potato is added to hydrogen peroxide, the enzyme catalase in the potato catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas. This reaction produces bubbling or foaming as the oxygen gas is released.

Potato turns blue or purple when Benedict's solution is added, indicating the presence of reducing sugars such as glucose. This color change occurs due to the chemical reaction between the reducing sugars in the potato and the copper ions in the Benedict's solution.
this farmer tried to make a potato and added something inside the potato and it grew different and tasted different. the farmers name was yam
Yes, potato peels can be added to compost as they are biodegradable and will break down over time, adding nutrients to the soil.
