mouth is a part of the body where people use mechanical digestion and use their teeth to break down their food. With the help of saliva produced by the salivary glands‚ which produce enzymes‚ food is able to be broken down further. This is also the place where ingestion takes place” “What are enzymes” “Enzymes are very efficient catalysts for biochemical reactions. In the mouth there’s an enzyme that will help your food undergo chemical digestion” “What is it” “It is amylase. Which help digest starch

By interviewing professionals in the industry that have an extensive knowledge in the field and obtaining information from internet sources and books‚ a few possible methods were found‚ such as: composting‚ animal feed‚ anaerobic digestion and Gore Cover. The advantages and disadvantages of each method were then compared‚ by using indicators such as cost‚ efficiency and end products. The comparison presented the most feasible method for the food waste management not only because

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 8 Chemical and Physical Processes of Digestion NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: Carbohydrate Digestion The following questions refer to Activity 1: Assessing Starch Digestion by Salivary Amylase. 1. At what pH did you see the highest activity of salivary amylase? Why? 2. How do you know that the amylase did not have any contaminating maltose? 3. What effect did boiling have on enzyme activity? Why? 4. Describe the substrate and the subunit product of amylase

variable was the amount of methane evolved from the waste. The experiment can be applied to real world applications by assisting anaerobic digestion plants in optimizing their production of biogas. Why can Producing Biogas from Bovine Waste be Useful? Biogas or bio-methane can be used as an alternative source of energy produced through oxygen free (anaerobic) digestion of organic matter in which organic material is processed into a liquid effluent and combustible biogas rich in methane. Generally

Khadijah Lockhart Biology Lab Report November 4‚ 2013 Title: Starch Digestion by Pancreatic Amylase Statement of the Problem: What happens to enzymes when they are boiled? If digestion doesn’t occur‚ which will be present starch or maltose? If digestion does occur‚ which will be present starch or maltose? Hypothesis: I predict that when enzymes are boiled‚ they will become larger. If digestion does not occur starch will be present‚ and if it does occur maltose will be present. Materials:

Digestion begins in the mouth when one eats food. It begins the moment one takes a sandwich bite. The teeth are used to break the sandwich that contains lettuce and pickles into smaller particles or boluses so that the enzymes can digest the food much easier. Lettuce contains carbohydrates‚ proteins and fat. The tongue helps turn food in the mouth and mix with the saliva in the mouth which contains salivary amylase enzyme. It then passes through the esophagus to the stomach which is a mixer and grinder
