    Fermentation and affects it has on foods Fermentation is described as the transformative action of organisms and the metabolic change either anaerobic or aerobic processes converting energy needed to turn raw product to a finished fully fermented food. Fermenting food has become more popular because people are realizing that if it were not for fermenting as a collection of people we would be in trouble. Fermenting has been done for hundreds of years because if not for fermenting letting foods just

    Fermentation Fermentation is a natural process that has been going on in nature since before humans existed. For centuries we have been practicing food fermentation‚ knowingly or unknowingly. Every food culture in the world throughout history has been using fermentation in their food in some way. Bread making originated in Egypt 3500 years ago. Fermented drinks were being produced and consumed in Babylon(now Iraq) 7000 years ago. China is thought to be the birth place of fermented vegetables. A

    #2) Both Winner and Joy explore the issue of technology and control. How would you compare their two views of current technological development? Focus the comparison on a specific technology‚ such as genetically modified organisms. Technology is always in need of control. You cannot have a world that technology is in control such as the movie Terminator‚ where technology takes over. Just like human beings there is always a need for control. Both Winner and Joy explore this topic; Joy believes

    ester‚ with a water molecule as a bi-product. The water molecule is lost from the reactants as the carboxylic acid in the reaction loses a –OH hydroxyl group and the alcohol loses a single hydrogen to allow bonding to occur between the carbon and oxygen atoms. Esters are polar molecules‚ or molecules that are separated in polarity by differences in electronegativity and each individual atom’s pull on electrons. Basically‚ one part of the molecule is slightly positive and the other slightly negative

    Aim: To investigate whether living organisms by respiration convert oxygen into Co2. Introduction: The process by which organisms release energy from food is called respiration. There are two categories of respiration‚ depending on the amount of oxygen available. Aerobic respiration is the most common type of respiration. It requires oxygen- the reason why you are breathing right now. Anaerobic respiration requires no oxygen. The experiment which will take place is the aerobic respiration. Earthworms
