PURPOSEThe purpose of the lab is to learn how to determine the presence of glucose‚ starch‚ lipid‚ and protein in various samples through standard tests. MODIFICATION1. Protein solution‚ vegetable oil‚ glucose solution‚ sucrose solution‚ starch solution and distilled water were added separately into six marked test tubes. The volume added was about one finger thick in depth of a test tube. 2. 5 drops of Iodine solution was added to each test tube. 3. The sample’s reaction with iodine was recorded

In the sandwich you just ate‚ you have consumed three raw macromolecules. The bread would be considered the carbohydrate. The mayonnaise is the lipid. The turkey is of course considered the protein. Although the body takes in these three different forms one way‚ the way the body breaks it down is in three ways. First is the break-down of the carbohydrates(bread). The polysaccharide form of this is too big for the body to simply break down directly. So‚ instead the body uses multiple forms of procedures

MACROMOLECULS LAB: What are the mystery powders? Period: 4 Asia Enoch Introduction: A carbohydrate is an immediate form of energy in your body. Monomers is smaller than a polymer. For carbohydrate the monomer is sugar and the polymer is a polysaccharides. Carbohydrates are important to our body because we need to use energy. The purpose of this lab is to figure which one is the monomer and which one is the polymer. Hypothesis: If I place two drops of iodine into the mystery powder‚ it

Macromolecules BCM261/BCM262 Anonymous Student #2 Aim The purpose of this lab was to use the scientific method to identify an unknown solution‚ based on the reactions (i.e. color changes) of known solutions with indicator solutions. These known solutions contained different types of macromolecules. Each type of micromolecule reacted with at least one indicator solution in a unique way‚ which allowed us to identify the macromolecule based upon the presence or

IDENTIFICATION OF SOME MACROMOLECULES | | INTRODUCTION Dehydration-synthesis is a reaction that occurs to form different types of macromolecules. It is a reaction that leaves a macromolecule structure along the lines of developing its own specific function in a living organism. The 4 most common ones are carbohydrates which includes monosaccharides and polysaccharides‚ lipids‚ proteins and nucleic acids (Mack 2012). Scientists identify different types of macromolecules to achieve a better

compounds also usually contain hydrogen atoms. Even though life is very complex‚ all large molecules that make up life are categorized into four large classes: lipids‚ protein‚ carbohydrates‚ and nucleic acids. These four molecules are known as macromolecules‚ due to their large size. Atoms have diverse characters that depend on the atoms electronic configuration. Carbons unique configuration allows it to form bonds with up to four other atoms‚ and gives carbon a covalent compactivity with many other

test for starch macromolecules occurs when the solution turns dark brown when Iodine solution is added. 2. If there is glucose in the substance‚ the substance turns to an orange-yellow colour when Benedict’s Solution is added to it. The colour of the glucose solution when it is mixed with Benedict’s solution with heat is orange-yellow‚ while all of the sample solutions turn into a light blue or purple colour. We can therefore deduce that a positive test for glucose macromolecules is when the colour

The objective of this macromolecules lab was to identify the presence any of the major macromolecules in various every day food items. The three macromolecules that this lab was carried out for were carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ and proteins. There were five different experiments conducted and each of those experiments had one factor in common‚ they all had the same controls. The controls in this lab activity were already set for the lab activity. The controls were the distilled water and the baking soda
