Answer:

The correct answer will be- green plants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Starch is a carbohydrate polymer made up of glucose units joined by glycosidic elements.

Starch act as a storage product in the green plants and green algae which provides energy during a shortage of food material.

Starch undergo hydrolysis to form glucose-1 -phosphate sugars and can directly enter the glycolysis to provide energy.

Thus, green plant is the correct answer.
