    I believe that the reason the cell appeared smaller after being exposed to starch solution was because water molecules move out of the cell because the concentration of water inside the cell was greater than outside the cell. I believe this for a few different reasons. We were given 3 different explanations to explain why the cells appear smaller after being exposed to sugar water. These include: That the sugar molecules are not able to enter the cell‚ but the sugar molecules push on the cell membrane

    Digestion Self-design Practical: The effect of pH on enzyme activity Rationale Amylase is an enzyme involved in the digestion system which catalyses the breakdown of starch into sugars. It is not only present in human saliva but also in the pancreas‚ where it hydrolyses dietary starch into disaccharides and trisaccharides which are converted by other enzymes to glucose to supply the body with energy. pH has an effect on the activity of all enzymes‚ including amylase. As the pH level increases

    the experiment is to see the enzyme amylase catalyse starch in a chemical reaction. | | Introduction Enzymes are proteins. They act as catalysts‚ allowing chemical reactions to take place by lowering the amount of energy needed. They therefore speed up a reaction without being consumed themselves in the process. Enzymes are needed by all human beings‚ without them we couldn’t survive. They act as catalysts that break down substances such as starch and convert them into different products

    catalysts work best at optimum temperatures and pH’s. The temperature and pH at which the reaction occurs the quickest is the ideal condition for the enzymatic reaction. Alpha amylase converts starch into glucose and when starch is combined with I2KI indicator a dark purple solution forms. As the enzyme breaks down the starch the absorbency will decrease. The absorbency is measured through the spectrophotometer which reads the transmittance of the wavelengths that pass through the solution. In order

    1. Cellulose‚ starch‚ and glycogen are very similar‚ yet very different. Describe the process by which each of these molecules is formed. Why does the subtle difference in how the simple sugar monomers are bonded in starch and cellulose affect how the two molecules are used? Cellulose is built from glucose molecules bonded covalently together through a process known as hydrolysis. Hydrolysis is a chemical process in which a molecule of water is added to a substance. Each alternating glucose

    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
