If one test soaked maize mealie meal suspension after being soaked for 24 hours then test for starch and glucose what results do we get, then suspension maize mealie meal after boil it for 20 minutes then testing it for glucose and starch what results do we get, then suspension maize mealie meal added cold water then immediately test for starch and glucose what results do we get

Let's break down the results for each scenario:

1. Maize mealie meal suspension soaked for 24 hours:

• Starch test (using iodine solution): You would get a positive result (blue-black color). While some starch might have been broken down, a significant amount of starch will still be present in the maize meal.
• Glucose test (using Benedict's solution and heat): You would likely get a positive result (color change from blue to green, yellow, orange, or brick-red). During the 24-hour soaking period, natural enzymes (amylase) present in the maize meal, or from microorganisms, would have had time to break down some of the starch into simpler sugars like glucose.

2. Maize mealie meal suspension boiled for 20 minutes:

• Starch test (using iodine solution): You would get a positive result (blue-black color). Boiling gelatinizes the starch, making it more accessible, but it does not destroy the starch itself.
• Glucose test (using Benedict's solution and heat): You would get a negative result (solution remains blue). Boiling denatures the enzymes (like amylase) that break down starch into glucose. Without active enzymes, and with very little free glucose initially in maize meal, no significant glucose will be present.

3. Maize mealie meal suspension added cold water then immediately tested:

• Starch test (using iodine solution): You would get a positive result (blue-black color). The maize meal contains starch, and adding cold water immediately doesn't change that.
• Glucose test (using Benedict's solution and heat): You would get a negative result (solution remains blue). There hasn't been enough time for any enzymes to break down starch into glucose, and maize meal itself contains very little free glucose.
