Carbohydrates in FoodCarbs are one of three main nutrients in food, the others being fats and protein. There are three common types of carbs in foods: (1) Sugar; (2)Starch; and (3) Dietary fiber. Only sugar and starch is digested, as the human body lacks the digestive enzymes to break down (metabolize) dietary fiber in the intestinal tract.

No, protein is not a starch. Starch is a type of carbohydrate found in foods like grains and potatoes, while protein is a macronutrient found in foods like meat, dairy, and legumes. Both provide energy, but they have different functions in the body.
It is a material that contains sugars produced from starch. Used in foods, it can remove fat/ cholesterol from foods, and is used as a dietary supplement.
Usually green vegetables such as broccoli, peas, celery etc contain high amounts of fibre , but you can also get it from foods like rye bread and prunes.
Fibre is the stuff in some foods that provides us with energy and healthy bones. Foods that contain things like bran are rich in fibre. Hope I helped!
