Aim
We are trying to find out how the action of amylase enzyme on starch is influenced by temperature.
Prediction
My prediction is that the lower the temperature the longer it will take for the two substances to turn a pure yellow indicating the starch has been converted into sugars (glucose).
Scientific reason
Parts of the digestive system produce enzymes which speed up the digestion of food. When the food has been digested it is

method I think we could have measured the amount of iodine to the nearest one ml to make our results even clearer. However, in our results it did show a significant pattern, increasing the temperature decreases the time taken for the two substances to turn a pure yellow.
Also we did not indicate the exact yellow of the two substances, we could have put a yellow from a ph indicator to tell us the yellow.
