 QUESTION CUM ANSWER PAPER FOR:FIRST TERM: 2021-- 2022

1.A student investigated the effect of the enzyme amylase on the breakdown of a
starch suspension.
The starch suspension was placed inside a bag made from dialysis tubing

Dialysis tubing is made from a type of membrane that is partially permeable. Only small molecules

can pass through this membrane.

Step 1 Two large test-tubes were put into a water-bath. Each large test-tube contained 20cm3

of distilled water. The temperature of the water-bath was 40°C.

Step 2 A knot was tied at the end of one piece of dialysis tubing, to form a bag.
3
Step 3 5cm of the starch suspension was put into the dialysis tubing bag.

3
Step 4 A clean syringe was used to put 5cm of amylase solution into the dialysis tubing bag.

Step 5 The contents of the dialysis tubing bag were mixed well and the outside of the bag was

rinsed with distilled water.

3
Step 6 The student repeated steps 2 to 5 using 5cm of distilled water in step 4 instead of the

amylase solution.

Step 7 The dialysis tubing bags were placed into the large test-tubes as shown in Fig. 1.1.
