| 1. | The locus Wx codes for a specific starch granule-bound enzyme, NDP-glucose-starch glucosyltransferase.
|
| 2. | Endodermal cells may contain starch granules in the form of amyloplasts.
|
| 3. | As water is heated with starch granules, gelatinization occurs, involving an endothermic reaction.
|
| 4. | Starch granules vary in composition and location across different chloroplast lineages.
|
| 5. | In mesophyll chloroplasts, which do not synthesize sugars, lack starch granules.
|
| 6. | Starch granules impurities departing to the solution with the starch.
|
| 7. | Starch granules create very strong and rigid gel networks.
|
| 8. | In red algae, starch granules are found in the cytoplasm rather than in the chloroplast.
|
| 9. | T-conclusion is when all the starch granules are fully gelatinized, and the curve remains stable.
|
| 10. | About 96 % of the starch granules are gelatinized.
