Review Sheet Results
Explain why you can't fully test the lipase activity in tube 5 (lipase, vegetable oil, bile salts, pH 2.0 buffer).You did not answer this question.1Which tube had the highest lipase activity? How well did the results compare with your prediction? Discuss possible reasons why it may or may not have matched.You did not answer this question.2Explain why pancreatic lipase would be active in both the mouth and the pancreas.You did not answer this question.3Describe the process of bile emulsification of lipids and how it improves lipase activity.You did not answer this question.4
