Question: what was part 2 of the Lab. MONITORING AMYLASE ACTIVITY?

Answer: We used the iodine test to see the presence or absence of starch after amylase was put in at different temperatures

Question: what did the test result indicate?

Answer: amylase works best at medium temperature because the iodine test stayed orange meaning there was no starch;;;;;; a blue test occurred at high and low temperatures meaning iodine attach to starch, and amylase was denatured

Question: What was Part 3 about,? what were the results?

Answer: the effect of pH on amylase activity;;;; worked best at pH 7. Same thing happened with the iodine test and different temperatures
