3. In which test tube was the activity most like that of a real human stomach? Explain.
Procedure Part 4 (10 points)
Using digestive compounds like those in the stomach and saliva, you can simulate human digestion in a lab.
First, you will look at the results of an experiment that tested conditions to model digestion in the stomach. Then, you will conduct an experiment to see how vinegar affects digestion of starch in saliva.

Safety
Review the safety practices and guidelines found in Safety in the Lab. Review the Laboratory Guidelines before conducting the lab. Do not eat or drink any of the substances after you have used them in the lab. Iodine can stain substances, including skin. Wear gloves to protect your skin. Iodine is toxic by ingestion and inhalation, and can cause burns on contact. Do not breathe vapors or mist. Keep all containers out of the reach of small children or pets. Notify everyone in the home that you are conducting an experiment, and tell them not to touch any containers. Properly dispose of all materials that will not be reused. Carefully clean all lab materials that you will use again.
Background:
Digestion takes place in saliva. Amylase is an enzyme in saliva that breaks down starch into sugars. If you try chewing a piece of rice or small piece of a saltine cracker, foods that are high in starch and low in sugar, you may notice they start to taste sweet over time. Starch turns a dark blue-black when in the presence of iodine. You can test how much starch has been digested by the amylase in saliva by comparing the color of iodine placed in several samples.
1. Label three cups as follows: water, water and saliva, vinegar and saliva.
2. Pour one tablespoon of water into the two cups labeled with water.
3. Pour one tablespoon of vinegar into the cup labeled with vinegar.
4. Spit into the containers labeled with saliva. Try to get approximately the same amount of saliva into each container.
5. Break off three small pieces of saltine cracker. Try to get the pieces close to the same size. One small corner of the cracker (approximately 4 mm by 4 mm) will work for each sample.
6. Break up each piece into small pieces to simulate chewing. Do not actually chew the cracker sample to be tested. Place the samples into the labeled cups.
7. Allow the mixtures to sit for one hour.
8. Add several drops of iodine to each cup.
9. Observe the results and record your observations.
