examine the rate of alcoholic fermentation using various carbohydrates. Hypothesis: If the yeast is placed in 5% glucose or sucrose solutions‚ then carbon dioxide production will increase over time. If boiled yeast is placed in a 5% sucrose solution‚ then carbon dioxide production will remain constant. Variables Independent variable: Carbohydrate solutions (5% solutions of glucose and sucrose) and boiled yeast Dependent variable: Rate of reaction of alcoholic fermentation as calculated by size of

of carbohydrates begin in the mouth‚ where an enzyme‚ salivary amylase (α-amylase;ptyalin) starts to breaking the polysaccharides (starch) into short polysaccharides (dextrin). Dextrin is a partial degradation of starch‚ shorter chains of maltose units. Salivary amylase is inactivated by stomach acid in the stomach and to a small extent‚ it continues breaking down starch (but there’s no enzymatic activities on carbohydrates in the stomach). An intestinal enzyme‚ pancreatic amylase‚ continues the activity

Lab Report Procedure 6.1: Perform Benedict’s test for reducing sugars. Introduction: Benedict’s tests allows for the detection of the presence of reducing sugars. All monosaccharides are reducing sugars since all of them have active carbonyl group. Some disaccharides that are exposed to a carbonyl group are also reducing sugars but less reactive than monosaccharides. By mixing the sugar solution with Benedict’s solution and heating them‚ a redox reaction will occur. The copper (II) sulphate

Introduction: This lab helps further our understanding of essential principles behind diffusion and osmosis. Permeability‚ concentration gradients‚ plasmolysis‚ water potential‚ and equilibrium were also concepts that were delved into in this lab. Understanding how diffusion and osmosis works is essential to understanding biology. Each time a cell has something move into or out of it‚ some sort of principle studied in this lab is occurring. Diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and passive and active transport are

Lab Report 1708 Mrs. Himler Ryan Nelson 9/20/2024. Lab Report INTRODUCTION: During this lab‚ the group used 3 food thickeners. These thickeners are used to thicken‚ stabilize‚ and prevent separation for our daily products such as ranch‚ ice cream‚ and other dairy products. The group used modified food starch‚ corn starch‚ and guar gum. They all are different from each other‚ each in a unique way. Firstly‚ guar gum is like pectin‚ a soluble fiber and polysaccharide. Furthermore‚ the body cannot digest

the increase in concentration of Convollaria roots had on the rate of fermentation. The hypothesis was that the antimicrobial activities in Convallaria majalis’s roots would hinder the process of yeast fermentation because it will cause self- destruction or death in the microorganism of the yeast. If the antimicrobial activities in Convallaria majalis’s inhibit yeast fermentation‚ then the amount of CO2 evolved in the fermentation process will slowly decease or no CO2 will be formed. However‚ the results

Carbohydrate Lab Report Introduction Qualitative identification of a substance is of significant importance in chemistry. Physical constants such as melting points have traditionally been used by organic chemistry for identification of unknown compounds. As for inorganic substances‚ the precipitation of a solid‚ results of a flame test‚ or the formation of a colored substance could all be keys to identifying a sample. Chromatography and spectra are amongst the newer techniques

potato cores into sucrose solutions of 0.0-0.6M‚ and weighing the potato. We concluded that the osmolarity of the potato was about 0.4M since the weight of the potato did not change after it was incubated in the solution with 0.4M. We also found that the potato was hypertonic to sucrose solutions of 0.0-0.3M and hypotonic to 0.5-0.6M. C.
