Yes, starch naturally occurs in plants. It is a carbohydrate that can be converted into sugar through photosynthesis.
Conversion of Starch into sugar (i. e. conversion of
polysaccharides into di- saccharides) does not require photosynthesis.
the starch is for food when 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.
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
In order to produce starch, a plant has to combine water and the sugar it produces. Without water, a plant cannot produce starch.
starch grains store food for plant cell .the starch grain just re-produces on and on. but like the Amyloplast, amyloplast gives away starch grain in its cell.
Starch is present in all beans as starch is food for the germinating plant.
The food manufactured by photosynthesis is stored in the form of glucose or starch in the plant's cells. This stored energy is used for growth, reproduction, and to fuel metabolic processes within the plant.

Some plants store starch in the roots for the young plant and since it contains alot of starch we eat it.
