Hi there! This is the only other question that I could really use some help with. Its from PhysioEx 8.0 on the Chemical and physical Processes of Digestion Activity 4.
I have done the experiment and recorded my results belwo but I would be so appreciative if someone could help me answer the 4 questions at the end. Thank you so much!
RESULTS OF ACTIVITY:
Tube 1
lipase vegetable oil bile salts
pH 7.0 buffer
boiled, then incubated 37°C
RESULTING PH = 7.0
Tube 2
lipase vegetable oil bile salts
pH 7.0 buffer
37°C
RESULTING PH = 6.21
Tube 3
lipase vegetable oil deionized water
pH 7.0 buffer
37°C
RESULTING PH = 6.72
Tube 4
lipase deionized water bile salts
pH 9.0 buffer
37°C
RESULTING PH = 9.00
Tube 5
deionized water vegetable oil bile salts
pH 7.0 buffer
37°C
RESULTING PH = 7.00
Tube 6
lipase vegetable oil bile salts
pH 2.0 buffer
37°C
RESULTING PH = 2.00
7
lipase vegetable oil bile salts
pH 9.0 buffer
37°C
RESULTING PH = 8.97
Based on your results, answer the following questions in the Lab Assignment.
8.1 Why was tube #1 found to have that particular pH value?
8.2. What is the action of the substance in tube #2 that was not included in tube #3?
8.3. What are the products of lipase digestion in tube #2?
8.4. In what tubes did you detect the presence of fatty acids?
