Identify the organ.
26
what organ produces digestive juices
glands e.g. pancreas, salivary gland
27
where in the digestive system does digestion take place?
mouth stomach small intestine
28
amylase breaks down
starch
29
what is starch broken down into?
glucose
30
protease breaks down?
proteins
31
proteins are broken down into
amino acids
32
fats are broken down by
lipase
33
fats are broken down into?
fatty acid glycerol
34
digested food is absorbed where?
small intestine
35
water is absorbed where in the digestive system?
large intestine
36
digestion of starch takes place in which organ?
mouth small intestine
37
digestion of proteins takes place in which organs?
stomach small intestine
38
Fats are digested in which organ?
small intestine
39
what type of substance is bile?
alkali
40
bile is made in which organ?
liver
41
The role of bile in digestion is?
to neutralise stomach acid emulsify the fats into droplets
42
Why is it important that the bile is added as the food leaves the stomach?
to prevent the acid contents denaturing enzymes in the small intestine
43
What organs in the digestive system does the food NOT pass through?
pancreas liver gall bladder
44
Where does digestion begin?
Mouth
45
How are the small intestines adapted for absorption?
Folds called villi increase surface area villi are thin villi have an extensive blood supply
46
Where is all the undigested food stored?
rectum
47
Where does the undigested food leave the body from?
anus
48
What is the glucose absorbed in digestion used for?
delivered to our cells and used in respiration
49
What are the amino acids absorbed in digestion used for?
to make new proteins
50
Where are new proteins made in a cell?
at the ribosomes
51
organ systems work together to form
organisms
52
Where is bile stored?
gall bladder
53
How are proteins different to amino acids?
proteins are large and insoluble amino acids are small and soluble
54
How is starch different to glucose?
starch is large and insoluble glucose is small and soluble
55
proteases, lipases and amylases are all what type of molecule?
enzymes
56
what are enzymes made from?
protein
57
What is an enzyme?
Protein molecule that acts as a biological catalayst
58
What does an enzyme do in the body?
control and speed up the rate of chemical reactions e.g. respiration
59
Enzymes are affected by
pH temperature
60
True or false enzymes are living
FALSE
61
You can increase the speed of an enzyme controlled reaction by doing what?
raising the temperature
62
If the temperature gets too hot for enzymes, what happens to the reaction its controlling?
slows down and eventually will stop
63
If enzymes get too hot what happens to the enzyme?
they begin to denature (destroyed)
64
When an enzyme denatures - what does this mean for the enzyme?
The bonds holding the enzyme together break and the enzyme begins to unravel
65
What shape are enzymes said to have?
globular
66
Are catalysts used up in the reaction?
No - left unchanged
67
Name the special site on the enzyme where the reaction takes place
active site
68
What is the name of the molecule that binds at the active site?
substrate
69
Can any substrate bind any enzyme?
No - active sites have a specific shape
70
What makes all enzymes different/unique?
They are all folded into a unique shape Their active site is specific to the enzyme
71
When an enzyme binds to the substrate what is formed?
enzyme-substrate complex
72
pH protease enzymes work best in in the stomach?
pH1-2
73
Chemical used to detect starch?
iodine
74
colour change observed if starch is present?
brown to black
75
In an experiment it is important to control certain variables why?
To make it a fair test
76
The rate of a reaction is..
a measure of how something changes over time
77
Digestion breaks down large insoluble molecules into..
small soluble ones (that can be absorbed)
78
Amylase is made in 3 places - name them
pancreas salivary gland small intestine
79
Protease are made in which organs?
pancreas small intestine stomach
80
Lipases are made in which organs?
pancreas small intestine
81
name the acid in the stomach
hydrochloric acid
82
what does emulsify mean?
break down into tinier droplets
83
What chemical is used to test for sugars?
Benedicts
84
How do you test for sugar in a sample of food?
dissolve in water add benedicts heat for 5 minutes in a water bath observe colour change
85
a sample of food containing a lot of sugar will turn benedicts solution from blue to...
red
86
A negative test for sugar using benedicts will ....
stay blue (no sugar is present)
87
The chemical used to test for proteins...
biuret solution
88
Foods that contain protein include
milk, meat, cheese
89
starchy foods include
bread rice pasta
90
to test for proteins you ...
dissolve food sample in water add equal volume of biuret solution observe colour change
91
A positive test for protein using biuret will turn
purple/lilac
92
Lipids (fats) are found in
cheese, chocolate, butter
93
To test for lipids you...
Grind up food sample add ethanol transfer food and ethanol sample to water look for a white layer/precipitate
