Introduction The objective of this experiment is to identify if the 12 provided solutions contain starch‚ glycogen‚ reducing sugars or proteins. The four major biological macromolecules are carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins and nucleic acids. Abundant elements in the world such as carbon and nitrogen bond in different ways to form many different molecules. The functional groups are what determine their characteristics. During the experiment‚ there will be 3 test. The iodine test is completed to

feeds the germ. The endosperms job is to give needed energy to the plant so it can grow roots down for water and nutrients‚ and give it energy to sprout upward for sunlight. The endosperm is the largest part of the kernel. It contains starchy carbohydrates‚ proteins and small amounts of vitamins and minerals. Another job‚ like the rest‚ is to give it its nutritious factors. Whole grains contain all three parts of the kernel. Processing the whole grain generally removes the bran and the germ‚ just

difficult and costly task‚ compared with such charged molecules as metallic ions. Here is an example for isolating sucrose from Euphorbia lathyris L. (EL). 4. What is the best way to detect sugars? To overcome the high detection limit of carbohydrates‚ most of the methods described in the literatures rely on some sort of derivatization technique since the introduction of a chromophoric moiety can substantially improve the sensitivity‚ and a suitable tagging of reducing saccharides usually results

variety of foods. There are five basic food groups and I will outline them and their function in the body. One basic food is bread‚ other cereals and potatoes and the main nutrient for this type of food is carbohydrate‚ calcium‚ iron‚ B vitamins and dietary fibre. The main function of carbohydrate in the body is to provide energy. Dietary fibre is not absorbed but passes through the gastrointestinal tract‚ helping to keep it healthy before being excreted. The role of calcium is to develop and maintain

use of glucose during physical activity are: diet‚ activity intensity level‚ and activity duration. (Whitney and Rolfes 466-468) First of all you must have a carbohydrate rich diet in order to store glycogen. Abundant glycogen stores enables people to perform physical activity longer at higher intensity. Glucose provided by carbohydrates (Whitney and Rolfes 466-468) Intensity of activity affects glucose use because a lower intensity saves glucose while high intensity burns glucose quickly. Moderate

Brown rice vs. White rice: Which is better? Rice is considered a staple diet all over the world. With over billions of people consuming it daily‚ the question remains which is better out of these two? We all know or must have heard that brown rice is healthier as compared to white rice. Now‚ let us read about it in detail as to how brown rice is healthier? But before that‚ let us clarify the physical difference between these two rice. Physical appearance: 1. White rice: It as the name says is white
