Please help me answer correctly the table this is my assignment in biochem lab
Procedure:
1. Prepare 5 test tubes. Place 1 ml of 1% starch and add 10 drops of saliva to
each tube. Mix thoroughly.
2. Place the first tube in ice water, the 2nd
tube leave at room temperature, the 3rd
tube in 40°C , the 4th
tube at 60°Cwater bath and the 5th
tube boil for 2
minutes..
3. Leave the 4 tubes in their respective temperatures for 30 minutes. The 4th
tube
allows to stand for 30 minutes after heating for 2 minutes.
4. Test the contents of each tube with iodine and benedict’s tests.

- Answer TRUE OR FALSE only. 1. All types or kinds of media powder has a standard ratio of 23:1000. Meaning that 1000 ml of water is needed to dissolve 23 grams of powder medium. 2. Simple stains use one dye and cannot differentiate various types of bacteria while differential stains use several dyes in order to differentiate between different kinds of bacteria. 3. A certain student prepared his fixed sample for examination by pouring Nigrosin which is an acidic stain. He then observed that under the microscope the background was stained but the bacterial cells were untouched. This student therefore adapted the acid-fast staining procedure. 4. In doing serial dilutions, the original sample must be shaken at least 25 times to obtain a uniform distribution of organisms. 5.
