The BSA standard solution with the concentration of 0.5 mg/mL was used to produce standard curve for protein assay based on Bradford method. The test tubes contain BSA solutions was prepared: 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 μL. The reading of the absorbance for each test tube after adding the Bradford reagent was 0, 0.05, 0.09, 0.14, 0.19 and 0.22. If 20 μL of protein solution with unknown concentration were taken and mixed with 80 μL water. Then, 10 μL of this mixture was reacted with Bradford reagent and the absorbance reading was 0.08. What is unknown protein solution concentration before dilution?

. A molecule of ATP is usually consumed within a minute after synthesis, and the average human adult requires about 65 kg of ATP per day. However, at any given instance, human body contains at max about 50 grams of ATP and ADP combined, how it is possible that so much ATP can be utilized? (4 marks)
(b) Does ATP have a role in energy storage? (3 marks)

Two students performed the same experiment, testing how far iodine will diffuse through starchy tissue, such as potatoes. They cut 5 potato squares each, all of equal sizes, and placed them into small cups with iodine solution for 15 minutes. Then they measured how far from the edge of the potato the iodine diffused into the potatoes, in millimeters.
