Question

Monocotyledons are the main source of starch for us. why​

Answer 1

Answer:

Starch or amylum is a polymeric carbohydrate consisting of numerous glucose units joined by glycosidic bonds. This polysaccharide is produced by most green plants as energy storage. It is the most common carbohydrate in human diets and is contained in large amounts in staple foods like potatoes, maize (corn), rice, wheat and cassava (manioc).

Answer 2

Answer:

The body needs carbs because they provide energy, making starch an important source of these nutrients. Granules of it are primarily found in plant roots, seeds, fruits, and tubers.

Explanation:

• One of the two major categories of flowering plants, or angiosperms, the other being the eudicotyledons, is the monocotyledon, sometimes known as the monocot (eudicots).
• The majority of them can be identified by the fact that the embryo contained within the seed only has one cotyledon, or seed leaf.
• The monocots exhibit a vast range of structural and environmental variation within these limitations.
• They are dispersed over the globe on land. Additionally, they develop in rivers, lakes, and ponds, occasionally floating but more frequently rooted to the bottom.
• Some of them are intertidal plants that grow along the beach, and others are marine plants that are submerged and rooted to the bottom in relatively shallow water.
