We're edging ever closer to closing up our first section of A-Level revisited. The science siblings have been covering sugars: monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides over the last few weeks.
The last bit they need to cover is the testing for reducing and non-reducing sugars. This is Benedict's Reagent and is the last little bit they're doing before moving off sugars for a while.
It's a banging episode full of interesting history tangents like a brief dip into the history of the Philippines or the cast of Ice Age. It caters for anything you could possible want from a podcast and is available in any podcast player you choose to listen from.
Next week we dip back in to History, with the continuation of Elizabeth I's childhood before we sweep back to science for a recap test on sugars. Then, it's those end of term lessons where we get all Christmassy...
We hope you love Lexx Education - if you do, please shout from the rooftops about it! We're a small, independent podcast always in need of new listeners. If that new listener is you we recommend trudging back to episode 1 and working your way through chronologically... it's more fun that way.
