waxy cuticle prevents water loss More thermal energy transferred to water allowing it to evaporate quicker
:
↳
upper epidermis transparent
to allow
light to pass 2) increased light intensity increases rate
:
↳ Causes stomata to open
palisade cells main site of photosynthesis
:
3) faster air movement -> increases rate
↳ ORGAN air spaces allow gases to diffuse
spongy cells :
↳ Will blow away water vapour + distributes humidity in the air
allowing more to diffuse out
-group of tissues

guard cells sensitive to light-water open/close
:
increase in humidity -> decreases rate

4)
stomata
w/ shared function ↳ As the air will contain more water vapour, the concentration gradient
ribosomes synthesis protein ADAONSOROOTHAIRCELLS for diffusion is lower, making water unlikely transpire

Use qualitative reagents to test for a range of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins
METHODS :
① Benedict's test for simple sugars :
• Add 2cm- of liquid food sample to a test tube
•8
•
•·
i Add 1cm of Benedict’s reagent to the test tube
Place the tube in an 80 C water bath
·
Check for positive result = blue brick-red (simple sugars present).
-
② lodine test for starch :
• Add few drops of iodine to either a dry or liquid food sample
⑱
• Check for positive result = orange-blue/black (starch present)
·
③ Biurettest for proteins :
• Add a few drops of Biuret reagent to liquid food sample
⑧
• Check for positive result = blue lilac (protein present)
->

Emulsion test for Lipids :
• To a liquid food sample, add a few drops of water then a few drops of ethanol
•⑧ " Secure test tube with a bung and shake the tube.
•P 3) Check for positive result = cloudy layer (lipids present)
HAZARDS/RISKS :
Iodine can stain surfaces
i Biuret reagent is an irritant
Ethanol is highly flammable
water bath will be hot
