light is required by the plants to activate their chlorophyll smallest unit of light energy is a photon which also dissociates water molecules in a plant .this process is called photolysis
which is used in production of starch

∙ 14y agosun as light source has the ability to bleach clothing when left to dry for so long under the sun's light. from this reason i relate this to starch production that light have effect on production by keeping the starch to be produced or produced starch white looking than creamy (yellowish) kind of look.

Do plants need soil to make starch?
No. All they need for any carbohydrate is sunlight, CO2, and water. The soil (or rather the salts that it contains) is needed to make proteins.
How do humans make glucose from starch?
Animals use but don't make starch.In plants it is believed that starch is produced solely in the chloroplast.However, research by biologist Nora Alonso Casajús' PhD shows that the precursor molecule in starch biosynthesis - known as ADPG - accumulates in the cytosol of the plants.
What monomers plants use to make cellulose?
Cellulose is made in animals, starch is made in plants from polysaccarides
What plant produce starch?
In order for plants to make starch, they need some vital factors including; chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and light. Light turns into chemical energy by chlorophyll or chloroplasts (organelles) which forms a chemical reaction that is stored as glucose, the glucose then turns into starch. light Carbon dioxide + water >>>>>>>>>>> Glucose + oxygen
What uses do plants have to make sugar for energy storage?
Store some of it as Starch .Some plants also store energy by converting sugar to lipids.
What foods do plants make?
starch and proteins
Do plants need sunlight to produce starch?
yes
Do plants need soil to make starch?
No. All they need for any carbohydrate is sunlight, CO2, and water. The soil (or rather the salts that it contains) is needed to make proteins.
Why do some plants store starch?
So they have energy for when they need it.
Where do plants store glucose in?
In plants, glucose is generally stored as starch.
Does chicken meat have starch?
No. Only plants can contain/make starch. If the chicken for instance eats corn (which comes from a plant) the starch will be in their body but will be broken down for energy, but if they don't need that starch it turn into fat.
Type of sugar that plants make?
Glucose, starch, and cellulose
How plants store much of the food they need?
Plants store much of their food in the form of starch.
What is converted to starch by plants?
what are 2 plants that are converted suger for starch Edited answer: Glucose is converted into starch by plants
What polysaccharides do plants store in plastids?
The plants store starch as polysaccharide in their plastids.

Which plants store starch?
All green plants store starch
