What does AMYLASE do?

breaks down fat and turns it into fatty acids

breaks down protein and turns it into glucose

breaks down fiber and turns it into glucose

breaks down starch and turns it into glucose

STARCH, sugar, and glucose are all examples of ____________.

Fats

Proteins

Where in the body is AMYLASE present?

____________ , which is  located in the mouth, breaks ___________________________   into smaller molecules such as ____________ .

This graph shows that a normal person will have . . .

no biomolecules leftover in solid waste besides protein and fat

several biomolecules leftover in solid waste

no biomolecules leftover in solid waste besides fiber and some water

When you eat, what happens to the fiber in your food?

Fiber is broken down into glucose and absorbed

Fiber is coming together and getting bigger. Then it is absorbed.

Fiber is broken down into starch molecules and absorbed

Fiber is too big to be absorbed, so it is excreted as solid waste

The iodine test indicates if glucose is present or not.

True

False

Explain when and why you saw these similar colors and HOW you got the colors to change.

What two types of changes are occuring in the mouth?

The process by which molecules pass through the wall of the small intestine into the blood

absorption

interaction

excretion

chemical reaction

What happens to the amount of water and fiber over time? Where are they going?

Water increases and fiber decreases. This is because fiber gets absorbed and water is passed through the digestive system.

Water and fiber stay the same for the M'Kenna and a healthy person. They will get absorbed in the digestive system.

Water decreases and fiber increases. This is because water gets absorbed and fiber will pass through the digestive system.

Water and fiber stay the same for both M'Kenna and a healthy person. They will pass through the digestive system.

What's happening to the amount of glucose in M'Kenna versus a healthy person?

The amount of glucose stays the same between M'Kenna and a healthy person

The amount of glucose increases in both M'Kenna and a healthy person, but increases more in a healthy person

The amount of glucose decreases in both M'Kenna and a healthy person, but decreases more in a healthy person

The amount of glucose decreases in both M'Kenna and a healthy person, but decreases more in M'Kenna
