(3) (Total 12 marks) Q4. Fresh milk is a mixture of compounds including fat, protein and about 5 % lactose sugar. Lactose must be digested by the enzyme lactase, before the products can be absorbed. Lactase can be added to fresh milk to pre-digest the lactose. This makes ‘lactose-free’ milk, which is suitable for people who do not produce enough lactase of their own. A student investigated the effect of changing pH and temperature on the digestion of lactose in milk. Page 5 Bishop Ramsey CE School The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
