Question

Descrive how you could test a sample of germinating seeds to find out if reducing sugars are present.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

we used Benedict's reagent to test for one particular reducing sugar: glucose. Benedict's reagent starts out aqua-blue. As it is heated in the presence of reducing sugars, it turns yellow to orange. The "hotter" the final color of the reagent, the higher the concentration of reducing sugar.
