The question appears to be incomplete and seems to be asking for a correction or completion of a sentence related to how our bodies process starch. Here is a possible completion and correction of the sentence:

"Our bodies cannot make starch, but we often eat food that contains starch. Our body breaks down starch into glucose, which can be used by our body."

Explanation:

  • "Our bodies cannot make starch" is a correct statement because humans do not synthesize starch.
  • "but we often eat food that contains starch" is also correct as many foods, such as potatoes, rice, and bread, contain starch.
  • "Our body breaks down starch into glucose" is the correct process. Starch is a polysaccharide that is broken down into glucose, a monosaccharide, during digestion.
  • "which can be used by our body" completes the sentence by explaining that glucose is a usable form of energy for the body.

In summary, the corrected and completed sentence is: "Our bodies cannot make starch, but we often eat food that contains starch. Our body breaks down starch into glucose, which can be used by our body."
