Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: Correct option is B. (Simple sugar).
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: In potato cells, starch is converted from glucose by specialized cell organelles called amyloplasts. Amyloplasts are a kind of leucoplast or unpigmented plastid. Amyloplasts also transfer the polymerized starch into another organelle called the stroma for storage.
Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: In potato, starch is stored in the parenchyma.
Detailed explanation-4: -Potatoes, and other starchy foods, actually contain a special type of starch, called resistant starch which isn’t digested by your body. It’s “resistant” because it can’t be broken down by the digestive enzymes produced by your body, so it travels all the way to your large intestine where it feeds your gut microbiome.
Detailed explanation-5: -In potato-like tuber plants, glucose is stored in the form of starch. Starch is nothing but the polymerase chain of carbohydrate molecules through glycosidic bonds.
