It has a very low pH already , so the test requires the visualization of a diminishing in pH, it may be hard to identify.   
The ideal pH of gastric lipase is 3 – 6, implying that gastric lipase does not work at its ideal pH in the stomach   
A lipase is any catalyst that catalyzes the hydrolysis of fats (lipids). Lipases are a subclass of the esterases. Lipases perform basic parts in the absorption, transport and preparing of dietary lipids

The  reason  why  you  cant  test  the  activity  of  Lipase in  test  tube  5  is  because in test  tube  5  the  PH  is  low.  This  decrease  in  pH  might  make   it  difficult  to  detect  the  activity  of  lipase  since  the  optimal  ph  of   pancreatic  lipase  is  around  8.0.  generally  high   or   low  PH  result   to  complete  loss  of  activities  of  most  enzymes.

Label the steps of electron transport leading to oxidative phosphorylation where atp is synthesized from adp using the energy st
grandymaker [24]

First, the electron transport chain transfer the electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors using both reduction and oxidation reactions.

Next, the energy released in these reactions is captured as an electrochemical proton gradient that triggers the synthesis of ATP synthase and produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from ADP and phosphate group in the process called chemiosmosis.

Lastly, ATP stores energy chemically in the form of highly strained bonds and together, the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis makes up the oxidative phosphorylation which is found in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Why is a lack of oxygen fatal to cells?
sveticcg [70]
Oxygen is a vital element within cellular respiration. An intrinsic part of the cellular respiration cycle is the transfer or electrons through the electron transport chain, and at the end of it exists the mitochondria, in which electrons are donated to the Oxygen and combine with hydrogen ions to form water.

The graph shows the changing levels of hormones during menstruation and ovulation. What is the general trend for hormones after
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Hormone levels generally decrease.

Explanation:

<em>The graph showed that hormone levels after ovulation generally decrease.</em>

The menstrual cycle of women generally have 3 phases which include:

  1. <em>The follicular phase</em>
  2. <em>The ovulatory phase</em>
  3. <em>The luteal phase</em>

The follicular phase is characterized by low levels of oestrogen and progesterone and a slightly high level of follicle stimulating hormone which ensures that follicles within the ovary develop.

The ovulatory phase is characterized by a surge in the luitenizing hormone (which stimulates the release of eggs) and follicle stimulating hormone with a decrease in the level of oestrogen and a gradual increase in the level of progesterone.

The luteal phase is characterized by a general decrease in the levels of luitenizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone while oestrogen level may remain high.
