b) The mouth
c) The esophagus
d) The large intestine

7. We know that matter can’t just disappear. What ideas do we have about what is happening to the molecules that are disappearing in the small intestine?
a) They might be moving through the digestive system, it is changing into something else, it is disappearing, It is being absorb
b) It is being absorbed by the spit in her mouth
c) It is being absorbed in her large intestine

b) The outside of the tube is the outer lining of the small intestine
c) The outside of the tube is the connection between the stomach and the small intestine
d) The outside of the tube is just the outside of the tube and doesn't represent any part of the human body.

10. Did any of the food molecules end up on the other side of the dialysis tubing?
a) The sugar we put inside the dialysis tubing ended up outside of it
b) The sugar we put inside the dialysis tube ended up just being dissolved and didn't move from the inside of the tube

b) The starch we put inside the dialysis tube ended up moving to the outside of the tube
c) The starch we put inside the dialysis tube ended up dissolved and didn't show up anywhere
d) The starch we put inside the dialysis tube ended up melted and settled at the bottom of the container

13. How do you know? What’s your evidence?
a) When we tested outside of the tube with iodine, the color did not change to black. It stayed brown.
b) When we tested outside of the tube with iodine, the color changed to red.
c) When we tested outside of the tube with iodine, the color brown disappeared and was translucent
d) When we tested outside of the tube with iodine, the color changed to purple

14. What do our results tell us about the structure of the dialysis tubing?
a) • There must be small openings/gates in the surface of the dialysis tubing.
b) The material was not sealed completely at the top or bottom and the substances got out
c) the material of the dialysis tube was weak and didn't work
d) The material of the dialysis tube is thick like a plastic bag and we had to put holes in it for it to work

15. What structure in our bodies was the dialysis tubing similar to again?
a) our small intestines
b) large intestines
c) stomach
d) mouth

16. How is it possible that some molecules can get through a structure like the dialysis tubing but not others?
a) The shape or size of the molecule of a complex carbohydrate must be different from a sugar molecule.
b) The shape or size of the molecule of glucose must be different from a sugar molecule.
c) The shape or size of the molecule of a complex carbohydrate must be different from a starch molecule.
d) The shape or size of the molecule of a protien must be different from a sugar molecule.

17. What do our results tell us about what might be different about the structure of starch versus sugar molecules?
a) Maybe they are bigger or have a different shape that doesn’t fit through the holes/pores/gates in the surface.
b) Maybe they are smaller and have a different shape that doesn’t fit through the holes/pores/gates in the surface.
c) Maybe they are bigger or have a different color that sorts which sorts them at the surface.
d) Maybe they decided to just not want to go through the pores/holes/gates in the surface
