  • Starch is a white, granular, organic compound produced by all green plants.
  • Starch is insoluble in cold water and alcohol and many other solvents.
  • Starch is composed of two forms of glucose - amylose and amylopectin.
  • Amylose is a linear structured polymer while amylopectin is highly branched structure and is crystalline in nature.
  • The primary function of starch is to help the plant store energy.
  • In animals, starch is a source of sugar. Starch reach foods such as - rice, potato, wheat, flour etc. are a major part of our diet.
