Lab Report 8 April 15th Exercise 8: Chemical and Physical Processes of Digestion Lab Report Questions Activity 1 What is the difference between the IKI assay and Benedict’s assay? IKI assay detects the presence of starch‚ and the Benedict assay tests for the presence of reducing sugars as well as IKI turns blue black whereas Benedict is a bright blue that changes to green to orange to reddish brown with increasing levels of maltose What was the purpose of tubes #1 and #2? Why are they

Books Books are the best friend a person can have. For they are the kind of friends that are never disloyal. A person is never going to feel alone or bored in the presence of books. So‚ books can be read out of passion as a hobby or to gain knowledge and information. For that‚ some books are to be tasted‚ others to be swallowed; and some few to be chewed and digested. There are certain types of books which can only be tasted. To taste a book is just to have some sensations out

Anaerobic digestion Anaerobic digestion is a series of processes in which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen‚ used for industrial or domestic purposes to manage waste and/or to release energy. The digestion process begins with bacterial hydrolysis of the input materials in order to break down insoluble organic polymers such as carbohydrates and make them available for other bacteria. Acidogenic bacteria then convert the sugars and amino acids into carbon dioxide

Process of Digestion and Absorption after eating a hamburger. After someone eats a hamburger with the works‚ they do not really think of what nutrients are in that hamburger‚ what the body does to get those nutrients out of the food‚ or even what process is used‚ they just think of how good it tasted. To get all the nutrients out of the food the human body uses processes called absorption and digestion. Some of the processes of digestion are mechanical and chemical; these are the step before the

Lab 8 - Chemical and Physical Processes of Digestion (p.105) Introduction: In this lab‚ I will study how digestion of carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ and fats occurs. I will define Key Terms that describe what will occur in the experiments; I will conduct an experiment for each Activity and provide all resulting Data as well as answer Questions from each Activity. I will then provide a short Summary for what I learned in each Activity. Key Terms: Enzymes (p. 105) – Speed up chemical

Checkpoint: Human Digestion Jackie Burkhardt SCI 241 10/15/2010 Sherrie H. Lu The digestive process starts with saliva. Saliva begins with the scent or sight of food. Food enters the digestive system starting at the mouth. Food is broken into smaller pieces by your teeth. The broken up pieces of food mix with saliva and break down into a substance called bolus‚ which is a ball of chewed food. Bolus then passes through the pharynx‚ which helps us swallow‚ into the esophagus and into the stomach

Human Digestion Christine Wilkes SCI 241 Natalia Woehl March 8‚ 2011 The human digestion system consists of a series of organs and glads that process the food that we eat. The digestion process starts when food enters the mouth‚ then with the chewing of food. The salivary glads help break down the food with enzymes so that it is easier to swallow. While the food is being chewed it is turned into bolos‚ which then travels down the pharynx and through the esophagus. The esophagus is the long

Digestive system 6.1.1 explain why digestion of large food molecules is essential * Large food molecules are polymers‚ broken down into monomers in order to be absorbed into the blood * Humans eat substances by other organsims‚ many which are not suitable for human tissues therefore they must be broken down and reassembled in a form that is suitable * Many molecules in foods are too large to be absorbed by the villi in the small intestine‚ the large molecules have to be broken down
