Carb and lipid quiz Monday
No homework
Keep out of the mud at the fair!!!

Remember- Benedicts solution indicates a monosaccarhide when heated because it turns orange (ex. glucose). Di and poly saccharides will not react.
Iodine indicates a polysacchahide and it turns black when added to a polysaccharide (ex. starch).
Disaccharides do not react with either solution (ex. sucrose).
