Explain why you can't fully test the lipase activity in tube 5.

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.

Corals are animals whose bodies consist of a single layer of cells
Eddi Din [679]

Answer and Explanation:

Corals are a type of invertebrate within the <u>phylum Cnidaria</u>. They live in colonies of many identical individual polyps.A set of tentacles surround a central mouth opening. They also have a simple, radially-symmetrical body containing a single opening that serves as both the mouth and anus. The body is made up of two layers of cells, separated by a jelly-like layer with no internal organ. The two layers of cells make a single cell surrounding the body.

Starch, cellulose, dextran, and glycogen are polysaccharides. How are they similar? To what are their different properties due?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

similarity

Starch, cellulose,dextran and glycogen are all polymers of glucose

differences

                monomer/glucose     glycosidic bond    branching

1.starch              α glucose          1-4 and 1-6               branch and unbranced

  amylose                                       1-4                          unbranched

  amylopectin                               1-4 and 1-6              branched

2. dextran          α glucose          1-6                           branched

3. cellulose        β glucose           1-4                          unbranched, linear        

4. glycogen       α glucose           1-4 and 1-6              branched (shorter

                                                                                     branches than starch)

Enzyme: amlase acts on starch and cellulase acts on cellulose as they are specific for their substrates.

Explanation:

Starch: Consists of both branched amylopectin and unbranched amylose

Enzymes: Enzymes are specific as the gulcose molecule in starch is α and in cellulose is β which differ in their position of hydroxyl groups at anomeric carbon, their structures differ so they form different bonds. Active sites of enzymes can act only on specific bonds a sthey can fit to their specific substrates.

Typically, humans cause cultural
34kurt

Explanation:

What I got to have

Eutrophication (from Greek eutrophos, "well-nourished") is the process by which an entire body of water, or parts of it, becomes progressively enriched with minerals and nutrients. It has also been defined as a "nutrient-induced increase in phytoplankton productivity". Water bodies with very low nutrient levels are termed oligotrophic and those with moderate nutrient levels are termed mesotrophic. Advanced eutrophication may also be referred to as dystrophic and hypertrophic conditions. Eutrophication in freshwater ecosystems is almost always caused by excess phosphorus.

I hope this helps
