Explanation:
- Steps to Starch testing:
- Boil the leaf in water.
- Boil the leaf in alcohol.
- Wash the leaf in water.
- Dip the leaf in iodine solution.
- A plant energy of sunlight using the chlorophyll molecules during photosynthesis.
- It is able to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose as a result of this.
- This glucose is delivered to the plant's developing sections for use in respiration, then converted into cellulose, proteins, and oils, and finally stored as starch.
- As a result, you may check the leaf for starches to see if the plants has been photosynthesising.
- Place the leaf in a boiling water with heating alcohol for a few minutes (the boiling ethanol dissolves the chlorophyll.
- Wash the plant in freshwater to hydrate and soft it, then spread it out on a white tile.
- Using a dropping pipette, add iodine solution.
- The iodine turns from brown to aqua after a few minutes in the parts of the leaf that contains sugar.
