- Some leaves which are not green also make their own food since they contain a little amount of chlorophyll. By doing the starch test, If a leaf had performed photosynthesis, it will turn blue-black indicating the presence of starch stored in it.

Answer:
Non-green plants do not have chloroplast and thus they do not have chlorophyll which is a pigment essential for photosynthesis to take place. Since plants get food through the process of photosynthesis, they cannot make food in absence of chlorophyll and that is why non-green plants cannot make their own food.
Explanation:
A plant with no chlorophyll means there is a plant that does not produce its own food via photosynthesis. ... Rather than producing their own food, they can parasitize other plants or fungi
