Part A: If a sixth test tube identical to the other tubes was kept at a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius for 48 hours, the amount of protein digested in the test described would most likely be in what approximate range? Be sure to add the appropriate units.

Part B: The investigation described was repeated using 10 grams (g) of starch instead of protein in each test tube. The contents of each tube were tested to determine the amount of starch that had been digested. The test results showed that no starch digestion occurred. Explain why no starch was digested.
