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.
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.
A green leaf is bleached before conducting a starch test to remove chlorophyll and other pigments, allowing for a clearer observation of starch presence. Bleaching typically involves using alcohol, which dissolves the pigments, making the leaf turn white. This step is crucial because chlorophyll can interfere with the iodine solution used in the starch test, which turns blue-black in the presence of starch. By bleaching the leaf, any starch present can be accurately detected without the distraction of green coloration.
The green part of the leaf is green because of the chlorophyll inside
It stands for it being the green part out of green leaf and fire red. Nothing else.
No, but you can migrate Pokemon from leaf green to platinum but you cant get them back to leaf green then
When iodine is added to a leaf with no starch, the leaf will remain its original color (usually green). Iodine reacts with starch molecules, turning the leaf blue-black if starch is present.
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.
bleaching removes the chlorophyll pigments from the leaf, making it easier to observe the starch produced during the starch test. Chlorophyll can interfere with the detection of starch as it also gives a green color to the leaf. By bleaching the leaf, we can ensure that any starch present is more visually distinguishable.
Removing the green color from the leaf before testing iodine solution allows for a clearer observation of the starch present in the leaf. The green color of chlorophyll can mask the color change that indicates the presence of starch when iodine solution is added. By removing the green color, it is easier to identify and analyze the starch content in the leaf.
Starch is produced in the leaf through photosynthesis. The process involves capturing sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose. Excess glucose is then stored as starch for later use by the plant.
The green areas of a variegated leaf contain starch, as they are the regions where photosynthesis occurs. Starch is produced during photosynthesis and serves as a storage form of energy for the plant.

Boiling the ethanol tube in a water bath is necessary to remove chlorophyll from the green leaf, which can interfere with the starch test. The heat helps to break down the leaf's cellular structure, allowing the ethanol to extract pigments effectively. Once the chlorophyll is removed, the leaf can be tested for starch presence using iodine solution, which will turn blue-black in the presence of starch. This process ensures accurate results in identifying starch accumulation in the leaf.
Boiling the leaf in ethanol removes chlorophyll, which can interfere with the test for starch using iodine. This process helps to ensure accurate detection of starch in the leaf tissue without any color interference from chlorophyll.
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
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.
Starch is typically stored in the amyloplasts, which are specialized organelles within the leaf cells of a variegated Coleus plant. These amyloplasts store starch as an energy reserve that can be used by the plant when needed.
