Starches are carbohydrates. Starch in plants is like glycogen in animals: it is the storage form of carbohydrates. Starches are large chains of glucose molecules. Complex carbohydrates are primarily starches, while simple carbohydrates are sugars. So, you get starch when you consume complex carbohydrates.
From the seeds,of course!(^-^)/

starch
A leaf needs light energy to photosynthesise. The way it can obtain this energy is from a light source, and the dark has no light sources-so the leaf cannot obtain light energy, it cannot photosynthesise. This process involves producing starch (as glucose is made, then converted into starch) and so no photosynthesis=no starch.
Potatoes mainly contain Starch and water but some minerals and salts are also constituents of potatoes.
There is a company that offers a very popular low starch diet (Jenny Craig) and if you go to the main website, you can find inromation on the diet, and how to obtain it.
It is broken down using enzymes, such as amylase, into glucose which then can be used in cell respiration.
The reaction of starch with diastase is important in living systems because diastase is an enzyme that helps break down starch into simpler sugars like maltose. This process is essential for organisms to obtain energy from starch-containing food sources. It allows for the efficient digestion and utilization of starch as a source of fuel for metabolic processes in the body.
plants produce glucose because it is there source of food for energy
Common types of starch include cornstarch, potato starch, tapioca starch, and wheat starch.
Corn starch is a souluble starch.
Starch phosphorylase is primarily involved in starch degradation by catalyzing the conversion of starch to glucose. In vivo starch anabolism involves the synthesis of starch molecules from glucose, which is carried out by enzymes like starch synthase and starch branching enzyme. Therefore, starch phosphorylase is not directly involved in the biosynthesis of starch in living systems.
