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

characterized by reddish to brownish raised patches on the skin. The patch of skin may be lighter in the center which gives it the appearance of a ring. Ringworm isn’t caused by a worm; but by a parasitic fungus. Ringworm usually only affects skin but can also affect the nails and scalp. Ringworm is very common. It is spread through skin-to-skin contact with an infected person. It can also be spread from contaminated hairbrushes or even using the same toilet seat as an infected individual. Ringworm

On average Americans consume 75 pounds of sugar in one year. John Oliver jokely said that’s roughly like “ eating Michael Cera’s weight in sugar every year.” Throughout his jokes comes the shocking truth of how it’s affecting our country. His 10 minute segment on Last Week Tonight about sugar brought forth the truth that is hidden from millions of Americans each day. I hope that everyone knows that having too much sugar is not healthy for anyone. Yet‚ two thirds of Americans are considered overweight

Chlorine in Photosynthesis Experiment Abstract Photosynthesis the means by which green plants and different types of organisms use light from the sun to synthesize foods from CO2 and H2O. Chlorine is a chemical element usually in the form of a yellow-green gas and is a strong oxidizing agent. Elodea is a type of aquatic plant also known as waterweed that is native to North America. In the experiment that took place‚ the effect of chlorine in the presence of photosynthesis reactions were studied

In bio lab‚ my lab partners and I did a lab experiment involving yeast fermentation. Fermentation is an anaerobic process to regenerate NAD+ to keep glycolysis active. Yeast preforms ethanol fermentation which create ethanol and NAD+. The class used six different types of sugars to determine which fuels fermentation by measuring the amount the carbon dioxide bubbles produced by the yeast. Yeast are single-cell fungi that cannot make their own food. They take the sugars in the surrounding environment
