Sugar vs. Starch Luis Beltran 4th period March 19, 2012
production Sugars starch Produced in photosynthesis Glucose builds up over time during photosynthesis, so plants store it in form of starch and fiber. • Produced in photosynthesis • Produced in the body as Glucose.
Chemical structure Sugar Starch Starch is composed of Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen. It is made up of chains of starch. • Sugar is composed of Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen • C6H12O6
functions sugar Starch Provides structure Carbohydrate in the human diet. Plants use it as energy storage • Sweetener • Quick energy release • Adds color to biscuits and make them golden.
Sources Sugars Starch Wheat bread Kernel Potato • Apples • Honey • Bananas • Whole wheat bread • Sugar cane • Sugar beet
nutritional sugar starch Good to consume in potato, fruits, wheat bread. Digestion Helps lower cholesterol • Need sugar for energy • Too much sugar not good for body • Stored as fat when consumed in excess
