very extensive lab... the results should be obtained by the reader who should have the info. good style and observations. DETECTION OF BIOLOGICAL MOLECULES Introduction: Without carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen and phosphorus, life wouldn't exist. These are the most abundant elements in living organisms. These elements are held together by covalent bonds, ionic bonds, hydrogen bonds, and disulfide bonds. Covalent bonds are especially strong, thus, are present in monomers, the building blocks of life. …showed first 75 words of 1480 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1480 total…only choices left was corn starch, glucose, and potato starch. Because of the low reducing sugar, glucose can be ruled out also. The starch content of substance #143 was very high. The protein content was around the 10% range, so potato starch would be a better guess then corn starch. But corn starch contained only a trace of fat when potato starch contained 0.8%. But 0.8% is very insignificant. The most educated guess to what chemical #143 is potato starch.
