Storm surges occur during storm events, including hurricanes and tropical cyclones due to three processes: 1  wind setup. 2  barometric setup. 3  wave setup.
Starch is the most common carbohydrate in the human diet and is contained in many staple foods. The major sources of starch intake worldwide are the cereals (rice, wheat, and maize) and the root vegetables (potatoes and cassava).
Starch (in rice, sago, wheat, other grains) is a polysaccharide. When we eat carbohydrates (mainly starch in grains, bread etc.), it is broken down into single molecules of glucose or other monosaccharide. Ultimately as a fuel it reaches into blood as glucose. Carbohydrates form a significant part of vegetarian food.
