          b)<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Some groundnuts are taken. They are grinded to powder and the powder is taken in a test tube.<\/li>\n
          2. 10 drops of water is added to the powder in the test tube.<\/li>\n

          4. 10 gms. of sodium hydroxide is dissolved in 100 ml. of water. We get 10% sodium hydroxide solution.<\/li>\n
          5. 2 drops of 2% copper sulphate solution and 10 drops of 10% sodium hydroxide solution are added to the groundnut solution already prepared.<\/li>\n
          6. The colour of the solution changes to purple confirming the presence of protein in groundnut.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            2. Cooked Dal:<\/p>\n

            4. The colour of the solution changes to purple confirming the presence of protein in cooked dal.<\/li>\n
            5. This test confirms the presence of proteins in larger amounts as compared to others.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              3. Pulusu:<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. A sample pulusu solution is taken in a test tube.<\/li>\n
              2. If a drop of it is put on a paper, the paper becomes translucent confirming the presence of fat in pulusu.<\/li>\n
              3. It responds to protein test and starch test.<\/li>\n
              4. Pulusu is a mixture of all these components of food.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
