    Testing for carbohydrates

    Can you remember these?

    Iodine is added to starch and it turns from brown to blue-black.


    Benedicts solution is added to glucose solution and must be heated. A positive test results in a colour change from blue to brick red.

    Testing for Protein and Fats

    For a protein test, you use Biuret solution and it will change from blue to lilac in the presence of protein.


    By mixing ethanol and water with fats or oils and giving it a good shake, a cloudy white emulsion is formed.

    Digestive System

    You will need to study this diagram of the human digestive system.

    No doubt you will need to label a diagram in the near future!

    Digestion

    Check out this youtube video:

    "The digestive system in the human body for kids - Smile and Learn"

    You will need to open another tab and search for this clip; the URL is not linked :(

  • Question 15

    Enzymes

    Enzymes are proteins that speed up reactions in our bodies. They are really helpful in the digestive system as they break long insoluble molecules of food into smaller soluble molecules that we can absorb.

    Enzymes continued

    The keywords you need to remember are:

    active site [where the reaction happens]

    substrate [the molecule/reactant the enzyme works on]

    product [what is made by the enzyme action]

    lock and key theory [a specific substrate fits into only one type of enzymes active site - this is why enzymes are specific eg amylase only will digest starch]

    optimum [the best an enzyme can work in certain conditions]

  • Slide 18
    Report an issue

    Action of amylase

    amylase enzyme digests starch, producing smaller sugars

  • Slide 19

    PROTEases digest PROTEins

    Smaller amino acids are produced

    LIPases digest fats and LIPids


  • Question 21

    Q.

    What would happen in this experiment?

    The tubing contains starch only.

    Iodine and water surround the visking tubing.

    answer choices

    the starch would be digested
