Observe that your saliva contains an enzyme: you can reveal the presence of an enzyme, a catalytic protein, in one of your own body fluids, in this case, your saliva. Put a piece of rusk in your mouth, do not swallow it, but turn it over with your tongue several times to soak up saliva. after a while ( about a minute), you will begin to perceive a sweet taste that was not there in the beginning. this is because your saliva contains an enzyme that breaks the bonds of starch into the rusk and releases a sweet disaccharide, maltose . You have just demonstrated that the hydrolysis ( digestion) of starch actually starts in the mouth, well before the food reaches your stomach. To prove that the starch has been degraded by an enzyme and not by an enzyme and not by the aqueous component of your saliva wet another piece of rusk for as long as the first rusk, then put it in your mouth. not that it is not a sweet taste.

Parkinson disease Parkinson disease, which is 2007 affected 25000 people in Quebec, is an example of basal ganglia disorder that occurs most often in people in their 50s and 60s. It is caused by a degeneration of the neurons of the substance stantia nigra ( gray matter of the cerebral peduncle) that release dopamine . As these neurons deteriorate, the basal nuclei they normally supply with dopamine become hyperactive. Hence the well-known symptoms of the disease. people with resting tremor ( which means shaking of the head and crumbling movements of the fingers). Walk inclined to the front and step dragging, have the expression of the face frozen and experiencing difficulty begin movements or to put their muscles running bradykinesia.  The cause of Parkinson disease is still unknown.  Levodopa( L-DOPA),  which is converted into dopamine in the body, is a drug that relieves some of the symptoms, but it does not cure the disease and loses ...

H1N1 Flu Virus    H1N1 flu is also known as swine flu. It's called swine flu because in the past, the people who caught it had direct contact with pigs. That changed several years ago when a new virus emerged that spread among people who hadn't been near pigs.     Swine influenza is a highly contagious acute respiratory disease of pigs, caused by one of the several strains of swine influenza A. The virus is spread among pigs by aerosols, through direct and indirect contact, and also by asymptomatic carrier pigs.

Since then, people have cont...
