    make the ice melt at a faster rate than the sand because sugar and salt dissolve in water and sand does not. To complete this experiment I will need sugar, sand, salt and ice. Sugar is grouped in monosaccharide, monosaccharide is also another word for word for sugar. Did you know the monosaccharide of cane sugar has been around for two thousand years? Sugar began spreading largely throughout the 17th and 19th centuries to the west Indians and other tropical islands. When…

    Protein and Carbohydrate in Bodybuilding Part 3Carbohydrate Requirements There are two main groups of carbohydrate foods: Starchy Foods Starchy carbohydrate foods are broken down more slowly into glucose than sugary foods, so there is a more gradual absorption into the blood. Examples of starchy foods are bread, breakfast cereals, potatoes, pasta, noodles, rice and biscuits. Starchy carbohydrate foods can be subdivided into high fibre and lower fibre ones. The high fibre ones, like wholemeal…

    cell. Biological molecules are put under groups based on the way they behave and the similarities they share. There are four main types of macromolecules, namely proteins, nucleic acids, fats and membrane lipids and carbohydrates (which include monosaccharides and polysaccharides). (Alberts, Walter, Bray, Hopkin, Johnson, & Lewis, 2015) There are four smaller organic molecule families which are the primary components of macromolecules. These four molecules are the sugars, nucleotides, amino…

    INTRODUCTION Cellular respiration is the breaking down of organic molecules by means of catabolic pathways that uses electron transport chain to produce ATP (Campbell 2011). ATP is used as energy in the synthesis of light or also known as Photosynthesis . ATP is used by photosynthetic organisms to produce their own food and also by performing cellular respiration. It needs mainly glucose and oxygen that involves the transfer of electrons in a chemical reaction. Cellular respiration is the…

    investigation with credible and accurate results as the reagents stated above give good indicative results to the types of carbohydrates present. Carbohydrates come in several different forms e.g. Starch is a polysaccharide and consists of thousands of monosaccharide sub-units which form a chain – polysaccharides (poly – many) are not readily soluble in water but react with iodine…

    carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins. Carbohydrates are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. With a structural components such as glucose and sugar. Carbohydrates can be singular molecules such as monosaccharides, or multiple molecules such as disaccharides. Monosaccharides are glucose and fructose, while disaccharides are sucrose and lactose. These function to store energy in the body. Macromolecules…

    found in food, carbohydrates can be starch, sugar, and fiber. Carbohydrates can either have simple or complex forms. For example, glucose, a sugar, is a monosaccharide; these are carbohydrates in their simplest form (Timberlake, 2006). When only a few of these monosaccharide are linked together, they create oligosachharides. If many of the monosaccharides are bonded, they create polysaccharides. These are considered complex carbohydrates. A polysaccharide which is made up of amylose and…

    Now onto the fresh information, the Dehydration Synthesis process and the Macromolecules. I’ll start with the Macromolecules. These molecules are the four molecules all living things need to survive. The four molecules are Proteins, DNA, Carbohydrates, and Lipids. Each of these molecules is made of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen at the very least. Proteins have Nitrogen as an added element, and DNA has Phosphate and Nitrogen. The base structure of each molecule has a carbon skeleton. This means…

    Lucy also consume carbohydrates such as berries and oranges, (the process in which the food moves down from the mouth to the rectum is the same as above.) it is first digested mechanically by chewing. The digestion of carbohydrates begins in the mouth by salivary enzyme, amylase, the fruits starches are digested into maltose and disaccharide. As the food travels through the esophagus to the stomach, no significant digestion of carbohydrates takes place as the HCl in the stomach stops amylase…

    Over the past few decades, increasing research and development efforts toward value addition and efficient utilization of nutritionally rich agro-industrial residues have been gaining attention around the world. Several industrial residues, such as whey, sugar beet pulp, cassava bagasse, apple pomace, citrus waste, coffee pulp/husk, etc., have been studied as model system. They are either used as microbial substrates in fermentation or are subjected to the extraction of bioactive molecules1-4.…
