TIP 1: Crop/zoom your image if necessary so that it is clear to the viewer.
TIP 2: Make sure the fillable PDF is open in Adobe when inserting photos. It will not
work if you are viewing the PDF in an internet browser. If you are having trouble
attaching your photo, never fear! Just watch the help video on DC Connect or contact
your instructor.

9. Imagine that you are a nurse working at Toronto General Hospital in Toronto, ON.
You are currently helping to treat 3 patients who are suffering from a variety of
different metabolic disorders. These patients are on strict diets to help control the
symptoms of their disorder.
Patient A: Lactose intolerant – unable to metabolize lactose
Patient B: Gaucher’s disease – unable to metabolize fat
Patient C: Phenylketonuria – unable to break down certain proteins,
specifically those containing the amino acid phenylalanine
A friend of yours who is a chef in the local cafeteria has been making a homemade
soup and has asked you if it would be suitable for your patients’ diets. As it tastes
delicious, you decide to test it to see what biological molecules are present. Here are
the results that you obtain:
Benedict’s test: Solution remains blue
Lugol’s test: Solution turns navy blue
Biuret’s test: Solution turns from blue to violet
Sudan test: Solution contains red droplets
a. (1 mark) According to the results, which biological molecules are present in this
soup? Check ALL that apply.
Monosaccharid Polysaccharide Polypeptide
Disaccharide Amino acid Triglyceride
b. (1 mark) Who would be able to eat this soup safely? Check ALL that apply.
