Floridean starch occurs in
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Rhodophyceae
- Floridian starch is the characteristic photosynthetic reserve substance of red algae, occurring abundantly in certain basin-shaped grain cells.
- Most Rhodophyceae store starch outside the chloroplast, often as a cap over a bulging pyrenoid.
- The major carbohydrate storage product of red algae is a type of starch molecule (Floridean starch), that is more highly branched than amylopectin. Floridian starch is stored as grains outside the chloroplast.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
