Benedict Test to Detect Presence Reduction of Sugar Lab Report
I need support with this Biology question so I can learn better.
- State and interpret your results for the enzyme experiment at each of the four temperatures.
- Did your results make sense? Why or why not?
- What did your results tell you about enzyme activity under each temperature condition?
- Why did invertase behave the way it did in each condition?
- What conclusions can you draw about the activity of invertase in biological organisms?
- Use your textbook and other resources to better understand and explain your results.
- ANY INFORMATION YOU DERIVE FROM ANOTHER SOURCE MUST BE CITED.
- State and interpret your results for the enzyme experiment at each of the four pH levels.
- Did your results make sense? Why or why not?
- What did your results tell you about enzyme activity under each condition?

- ANY INFORMATION YOU DERIVE FROM ANOTHER SOURCE MUST BE CITED.
- Create a diagram or flow chart showing the experimental procedure for the enzyme temperature and pH experiments.
- Explain the chemistry behind Benedict’s reagent. How is Benedict’s reagent affected by the presence of reducing sugars? Chemically speaking, why does this change take place?
- Given your answers to question 4, why do we use Benedict’s reagent to test for the activity of invertase?
- Draw the chemical equation for the breakdown of sucrose.
