Make two solutions√ of the same amount of starch √, and warm water √ in two test tubes (test tube 1 and 2). 2. Place 5 ml of enzyme A√ in test tube 1, and 3. 5 ml of enzyme B√ in the test tube 2 4. Allow apparatus to stand√ for an hour 5. Test the solutions in the test tubes for glucose√, by adding Benedict's solution/Fehlings A+B√ 6. Place the test tubes in a hot water bath √ 7. If the contents change from light blue to green/yellow/orange in the test tube √ then the enzyme has digested starch to glucose√ and the hypothesis must be accepted for the chosen enzyme 8. If the contents remain blue in the test tube √ then the enzyme has not digested starch to glucose√ and the hypothesis must be rejected for the chosen enzyme any (9) [15] QUESTION 3 3.1 To determine how the rate of photosynthesis√ changes over time√.
