What substances does the enzymes in saliva change starch into?
it contains enzymes which break the starch down to sugar
What happens to the sugar produced in the leaves of a plant?
The sugar produced in the leaves of a plant is transported down to the roots, stems, and other parts of the plant through specialized tubes called phloem. This sugar is used as a source of energy for growth, maintenance, and reproduction in different parts of the plant.
What substance does enzyme in saliva change starch into?
The enzyme in saliva that changes starch into sugars is called amylase. Amylase breaks down large starch molecules into smaller sugar molecules like maltose and dextrins. This begins the process of converting complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars for absorption in the body.
What is a long chain of sugar molecules called?
It is called macromolecule, such as proteins, DNA and cellulose.
Why leaves have starch?
Starch is the main carbohydrate found in plant tubers and seed endosperm in the form of granules. Starch contains mylose and amylopectin molecules. It is found in various carbohydrates such as white bread, potatoes, beans and rice.

What is stored sugar in plants called?
Stored sugar in plants is called starch. It is a polysaccharide that serves as a long-term energy storage molecule in plants.
Does starch have sugar?
no, starch is sugar fool
How do animals and plants store excess sugar?
Plants capture energy from sunlight by means of photosynthesis. Using the green pigment in their leaves called chlorophyll, which makes sugar. They store the sugar primarily as starch. Storage in the form of fat / oil is common too, especially in seeds. Animals mostly store excess sugar in body fat, and plants usually make fruit with excess sugar (as long as they have enough water).
Why leaves have starch?
Starch is the main carbohydrate found in plant tubers and seed endosperm in the form of granules. Starch contains mylose and amylopectin molecules. It is found in various carbohydrates such as white bread, potatoes, beans and rice.
What are the physical changes of the small intestines?
enzymes, pancreation, amylase, changes starch into the disaccharidemaltose a sugar makes 2 glucose molecules
Are starch and sugar synonymous?
Starch is an indigestible form of sugar.
