The Benedict’s Test is the test which can detect carbohydrates and glucose in foods. During this process, the sample or the food is placed into a test tube and then some drops of Benedict's solution is added to it,and is then put into a beaker of boiling water. When the mixture of food and the Benedict substance turns reddish orange instead of staying blue, this means that it is positive. The mixture has simple sugar or has carbohydrates or glucose. On the other hand, lipids are tested using the brown paper test. When the paper turns transparent when a drop of food is put into it, it means that is is positive as well. When you want to test if the food has proteins, you have to test it with Biurets. Observe if the color change when you put some Biurets solution to the food sample. It is positive if the food turns light purple. Test if the food is positive with starches through the use of iodine. Food having iodine drops should turn purple instead of staying a yellow color.

Which organelle serves as temporary storage of melanin or glycogen?
OLga [1]

Answer: Inclusions or inclusion structures serve as temporary storage of molecules like glycogen and melanin.

Inclusion structures are the aggregates formed of specific molecule types.

The inclusion bodies serve the purpose of temporary storage for molecules such as proteins, lipids, glycogen and melanin. One of the major differences between cell organelle and cell inclusion is that organelles are the living components or subcomponents which have particular functions but cell inclusions are non-living compounds or by products of metabolism process present in the cytoplasm.

REY [17]
<h2>Mutation will occur </h2>

Explanation:

Base excision repair operates for small DNA damage such as deaminated bases

  • DNA glycosylase plays an important role in cleavage of glycosidic bond of abnormal base (does not cleave phosphodiester bond)
  • Uracil is incorrectly paired with guanine then mutation will occur
  • The original GC base pair will change into AT base pair(transition of GC to AT)
  • Transition is a mutation in which one purine(adenine or guanine) is substituted for other or one pyrimidine(cytosine or thymine or uracil) is substituted for other
