The answer is photosynthesis. Photosynthesis consists of a main step called the light reaction. During this step, ATP and NADPH are made as energy sources. They are then transferred to the next and final step in photosynthesis, the Dark Reaction, or the Calvin Cycle (They are the same thing). ATP and NADPH power the Calvin Cycle, producing two GP3's. These GP3's form together to make either glucose, starch, cellulose, or proteins.

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.
What is the green part of the leaf?
The green part of the leaf is green because of the chlorophyll inside
What does green leaf symbolise?
It stands for it being the green part out of green leaf and fire red. Nothing else.
Can Pokémon Platinum trade with Pokémon LeafGreen?
No, but you can migrate Pokemon from leaf green to platinum but you cant get them back to leaf green then
Ho-Oh in Pokemon pearl?
Transfer from leaf green\fire red or tade with platinum. Transfer from leaf green\fire red or tade with platinum. Transfer from leaf green\fire red or tade with platinum.
How is starch produced in the leaf?
When the plant is kept in sunlight the starch is formed in leaf.
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.
Where is starch stored in a variegated Coleus leaf?
The starch in a variegated Coleus leaf is stored in the pigmented parts of the leaf. Coleus is a flowering plant is usually considered an ornamental plant because of its color.
Why do green leaves turn blue black when iodine is added?
because the leaves have photosynthesized- glucose is produced. therefore, the excess glucose is converted to starch. The starch is then stored in the leaf-starch is what causes the "green" leaf to turn blue black, as iodine turns blue-black when it reacts with starch.:P
Why did leaf had to be boiled in ethanol when testing leaf for starch?
Ethanol dissolves chlorophyll hence further phtosynthetic activity is stopped in the abscence of light and the leaf becomes transparent (colorless). the colorless leaf takes better stain with iodene while testing for the presence of starch.
What is the purpose of the alcohol in testing a leaf for starch?
It is to remove the chloroplast and dissolve in the alcohol and turn it green.
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.
What areas on a variegated leaf change colour?
in a variegated leaf only the green areas of the leaf turns blue black in colour when tested for starch what is the best way to explan that
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 would be the conclusion after testing a leaf for starch?
Starch is produced by leaves during Photosynthesis, therefore if the leaf has not been exposed to light then it will not contain starch, and so when tested the Iodine will stay Yellow/Brown. Consequently if the leaf has been left in the light Photosynthesis will have taken place and when tested the Iodine will go Blue/Black showing that Starch is present. Hope this helps :)
Why do only some parts of a variegated leaf make starch?
Photosynthesis, the process by which glucose(and by proxy, starch) is produced requires chlorophyll, which gives leaves the green colour.
How is starches formed?
starch is formed by fermentation.
