First six weeks project
A&P
You must find at least 12 of the following items. The items must be clearly
labeled and presented in an organized manner. For example, the label for
number one should include “disaccharide as a first ingredient; sugar; iced animal

be actual labels or the item itself.

2. Something that would increase the level of simple sugar in your blood.
3. Something that contains fatty acid chains with at least one double bond.
4. Something that contains fatty acid chains with no double bond.
