Starch is a type of Carbohydrate that’s made from thousands of glucose units. Simple sugars are the basic units that make up starch. Carbohydrates provide us with energy so that we can carry out our daily routines. Our body then digests it into glucose so we can have energy to do that. Saliva is a form of chemical digestion that is in the mouth. Amylase is an enzyme that catalysts the breakdown of starch into sugars. Amylase is present in human saliva‚ where it begins the chemical process of digestion

be able to absorb any more water‚ so it will seep out onto its surface. This is the beginning of a stream that with time will evolve into a river. All water in the same drainage basin will eventually flow in the same pattern and ultimately‚ will end up in the same stream or river. Why do river shapes vary in wet and dry climates? River shapes change in various climates due to different erosion patterns. In dry‚ arid regions‚ the river valleys are often deep and/or steep. This is due to little erosion

varying temperatures are targeted towards being at 10ºC‚ 20ºC‚ 30ºC‚ 40ºC‚ and 50ºC. It is highly improbable that each trial for each of the 5 different temperatures will be the exact temperature that was targeted‚ so it’s just important that you end up having a temperature fairly close to the targeted temperatures so that the rates of reactions that you do receive are as correct as possible. The rates of reaction will be obtained using an apparatus that will guide the carbon dioxide gas being produced

this experiment is that the higher the concentration‚ the faster time it takes the catalase to react with the solution. As the concentration increases from 1% to 100%‚ the average reaction rate of the catalase will decrease‚ as the catalase will speed up the reaction.
