Lactose is a disaccharide made of a glucose and a galactose bonded together. Lactose is found in milk yet does not taste sweet because our taste receptors do not sense lactose. Our taste receptors do sense galactose and glucose. How can a mug of warm milk taste sweet, without adding sugar? [Select the best answer.] The activation energy required for the hydrolysis of lactose into glucose and galactose is supplied by heating the milk. The milk proteins are denatured by the heat. The reaction is endergonic so the heat is the energy required for the reaction to occur. The lactose has less free energy than the glucose and galactose.

You read online that sucrose a carbohydrate can be broken down into glucose when it is in water. You decide to test this reaction for yourself. You mix sucrose with water, and nothing happened. What can be added to the reaction to breakdown glucose and why does this addition help?
Amylase is an enzyme found in saliva that is capable of breaking down starch into glucose molecules for metabolism. Humans have amylase in their saliva, and it is considered one of the first metabolic processes we carry out in digestion. When we consume some starchy foods, they often begin to taste sweet with chewing as the glucose sugars begin to be released by the amylase reaction with starch. In the following image, we tested a students saliva for the presence of amylase. Step 1: A starch solution was added to each of the three test tubes. Step 2: From left to right in the picture

In a lab experiment involving temperature and a glycolytic enzyme isolated from E. coli, you notice the reaction rate increases as temperature increases until the temperature reaches 50 degrees Celsius at which time the reaction rate rapidly decreases. How would you explain the decrease in reaction rate at high temperatures? (best answer) there is a mistake in your experiment as reaction rates should continue to increase as temperature is increased at high temperatures, because of the high speed with which the molecules are moving, when they collide with the enzymes, the enzymes are denatured and thus lose function at high temperatures, the substrate is destroyed at high temperatures, there is a great decrease in activation energy for the reaction until there is no more activation energy remaining
