The student clearly states the independent variable as the concentration of rice starch and the dependent variable as the rate of starch hydrolysis by amylase, providing a solid framework for the research. However, the research question lacks clarity regarding the method of analysis, particularly how the rate of hydrolysis will be measured. Additionally, the student does not adequately justify the choice of technique for measuring the variables or the sampling method used, leaving some aspects of the methodology unclear. While the student identifies safety, ethical, and environmental issues effectively, the methodology description lacks sufficient detail to ensure reproducibility. Overall, while the student addresses some critical elements, there are significant gaps in the methodological clarity and justification that need to be improved.
