A scientist wishes to determine the effect of a digestive enzyme on starch digestion (starch is broken down into glucose). The e
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

An identical setup but replacing the enzyme with an equal volume of water

Explanation:

When carrying out any experiment, it is important to set out a control in order to increase the reliability of the data and results.

The control minimizes the effects of variables other than the independent variable.

In the above experiment, starch has to be eliminated and replaced with water. Water does not have starch hence the digestive enzyme being tested will not have any effects making the data and results from the experimental group reliable.

What is the movement of water through the cell membrane in order to maintain homeostasis?
tiny-mole [99]

Osmosis. Cell membranes are "selectively permeable", where water is able to cross the cell membrane, but things that are dissolved in the water (solutes) are not. There are also small proteins called aquaporins which are designed to channel the movement of water across a cell membrane. You have to remember that water will move to achieve an equal solute concentration with that exists outside of the cell. A Hypotonic solution means that the liquid outside of the cells has LESS solutes in it than the cell does. Cells will take up water to match the low solute concentration outside the cells. A Hypertonic solution will have MORE solutes than the cell, and the cell will lose water to match the concentration outside the cell. Cells in a hypertonic solution will shrivel up, and cells will take up so much fluid in a hypotonic solution that they may burst.
