What does soluble starch mean?
Soluble starch is a partially hydrolyzed (mostly by acid hydrolysis) starch, therefore it actually is a long-chain dextran.
If starch is hydrolyzed completely the end products of the reaction would be?
Glucose monomers
What are the end products of starch hydrolysis?
When the starch is broken down, or hydrolyzed, the end product is glucose molecules.
At which enzyme concentration is starch hydrolyzed the fastest and slowest?
The enzyme that hydrolyzes starch the fastest is the amylase enzyme. This enzyme breaks down the starch until there is only sugar left.
What regent would you add to starch agar plate to detect starch hydrolsis?
To detect starch hydrolysis on a starch agar plate, you can add iodine solution. Iodine reacts with starch to form a blue-black color, and if starch is hydrolyzed by the organism, the clear zone around the bacterial growth will indicate the presence of amylase, an enzyme that breaks down starch.
What does Starch change into before respiratory ATP production?
Glucose
What polysacchrasides can be hydrolyzed to make dextrin?
corn starch
Why starch does not hydrolyse?
Starch is easily hydrolyzed, as in human mouth ans small intestine .
What does soluble starch mean?
Soluble starch is a partially hydrolyzed (mostly by acid hydrolysis) starch, therefore it actually is a long-chain dextran.
If starch is hydrolyzed completely the end products of the reaction would be?
Glucose monomers
What kind of carbohydrate cannot be hydrolyzed any further?
STARCH AND FIBER
What are the end products of starch hydrolysis?
When the starch is broken down, or hydrolyzed, the end product is glucose molecules.

What effect would the presence of potassium hydroxide have on starch production?
Potassium hydroxide removes carbon. It also helps to break down starch. Therefore, potassium hydroxide would mean less starch production.
Hydrolysis is involved in?
Hydrolysis is involved in maltose to glucose digestion. Maltose, a starch, gets hydrolyzed into a couple remains of glucose in this carbohydrate digestion.
What is needed for starch production in a leaf?
sunlight, water and CO2.
