Some have and some not... But we say mostly non green leaves🍂 do not have.. 🍃🌳🌲🍀☘️🌿🌱

Why do only some parts of a variegated leaf make starch?
Only the green parts of variegated leaves contain chlorophyll, which is necessary for photosynthesis to produce starch. Without chlorophyll, the non-green parts lack the ability to photosynthesize and make starch. This results in only the green areas of the variegated leaf being able to produce energy through photosynthesis.
Can photosynthesis occur in the non-green parts of variegated leaves?
Yes, photosynthesis can occur in the non-green parts of variegated leaves, but at a lower rate compared to the green parts because the green chlorophyll is the main pigment responsible for capturing light energy. The non-green parts may contain chloroplasts with reduced chlorophyll levels, limiting their photosynthetic efficiency.
Whether plants with non green leaves have chlorophyll and can they carry out photosynthesis?
Plants with non-green leaves, like some succulents and variegated plants, may still contain chlorophyll in varying amounts. While they may not have as much chlorophyll as green leaves, they can still carry out photosynthesis, although at a reduced rate. The pigments in their leaves that give them their color may also play a role in photosynthesis.
Do plants with non-green leaves have chlorophyll and can they carry out photosynthesis?
Plants with non-green leaves like variegated plants still have chlorophyll, but in lower amounts compared to green plants. They can still carry out photosynthesis, although at a slower rate. Variegation is caused by the presence of other pigments in the leaves, which can sometimes mask the green color from chlorophyll.
What are non chlorophyllous leaf?
Non-chlorophyllous leaves are leaves that do not contain chlorophyll, the green pigment responsible for photosynthesis. These leaves are usually white, yellow, or red in color and are incapable of producing energy through photosynthesis. They are often found on parasitic plants or in some tropical species that have adapted to low light conditions.
What is the colour of the non-green parts of a leaf after a starch test?
When conducting a starch test green and non-green leaves will react differently. Non-green leaves will not change color, remaining the same. However, green leaves will darken to black or nearly black color.
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.
Why do only some parts of a variegated leaf make starch?
Only the green parts of variegated leaves contain chlorophyll, which is necessary for photosynthesis to produce starch. Without chlorophyll, the non-green parts lack the ability to photosynthesize and make starch. This results in only the green areas of the variegated leaf being able to produce energy through photosynthesis.
Do the non -green areas of a leaf contain starch?
kritika chauhan- no. you can imitate a test .put 10 drops of dilute iodine solution on it. if it turns blue black than it contains starch. a blue black color indicate presence of starch in a food item. if you will do this test for a non green leaf it will be negative.
How do non-green leaves make food?
they depend on other plants Non-green leaves have other photosynthetic pigments like carotene and xanthophyll in their plastids which help in the process of photosynthesis.
Can photosynthesis occur in the non-green parts of variegated leaves?
Yes, photosynthesis can occur in the non-green parts of variegated leaves, but at a lower rate compared to the green parts because the green chlorophyll is the main pigment responsible for capturing light energy. The non-green parts may contain chloroplasts with reduced chlorophyll levels, limiting their photosynthetic efficiency.
What does the presence of blue color means in variegated leaf experiment of photosynthesis?
By blue color I assume you mean an added dye that shows how some parts of the leaf can photosynthesize and others not. The easiest of these experiments is to place the leaf in boiling ethanol (alcohol) and when drained of colour spread out on a flat surface. Soak the leaf in iodine and the green parts will turn blue/black and the non green parts will stay the yellowish brown colour of iodine. The green parts contain starch (a more compact form of glucose) which makes iodine turn blue/black. The blue/black is what will show starch is present.

What pigments are found in non green leaves?
There are mainly Caratinoids. They are Xanthophyll and Carotene mainly.
