Starch

Starch is a polysaccharide carbohydrate consisting of glucose units that serves as a storage form of energy in plants. It is commonly found in foods such as grains, potatoes, and legumes, and is broken down by enzymes in the digestive system to provide a source of glucose for the body. Starch can be further classified into two main types: amylose and amylopectin, each with their own unique structural properties and functions.
