Advances in science and technology have contributed significantly to the production of food in the world. Production capacity in agriculture has grown by 2.5 to 3 times over the past 50 years. This allowed, at a global level, that the increase in food production accompany the population increase.

An example of how technology has contributed to the increase in food production in the world is Transgenia. Through transgenic seeds, it was possible to plant crops that are more resistant to pests and to periods of drought, in addition, the transgenic crop has created crops with greater productivity. This has contributed greatly to the increase in food production.

Another example is the use of increasingly technological agricultural machinery, which can carry out agricultural work faster and more efficiently, reducing agricultural losses and contributing to increased production.

One example would be the chemicals they use in the soil to make the plants grow faster and another example would be chemicals they use to kill pest so they wont eat the crops or you could say bioengineering has enhanced the crops

Which of the following is NOT true about wearing jewelry when preparing or handling food a.watches and bracelets can

Gala2k [10]

When you are preparing or handling food, there are certain precautions to be followed to keep the eatables hygienic.

While handling food, one should remove before prepping food. He/she cannot wear rings, except the plain band. Bracelets and watches don’t matter as they are physically contaminated.
Eating, Drinking, Smoking, and Chewing Gum or Tobacco is strongly prohibited in the cooking area. Small droplets of saliva can contain thousands of pathogens, therefore, avoid spitting while prepping or serving food. Items of jewelry like rings, bracelets, and watches could collect soil and it could obstruct routine cleanup. As a result, the jewelry could act as a reservoir of unhealthful organisms which may transfer to the food.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

D) found in a limited time span

Explanation:

Index fossils are the remains of living organisms for which we have already established relative age. These are fossils that only existed during a limited period of geologic time and are easily identified, found in large volumes, and found in many different locations around Earth. Due to these factors, index fossils may be used as a guide for comparison in determining the relative age of an unknown object.

The test results below indicate the presence of which nutrient? four test tubes A. monosaccharide B. polysaccharide C. protein D

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Q1. incomplete information given

Q2. Protein will be present so test tube C. Beef is a rich source of protein. Hence, the Biuret test will be relevant in this case since that is specific to detecting proteins.

Q3. Orange juice has ample amount of simple sugars (such as fructose, glucose), which are monosaccharides. So option A. Benedict test is required here.

Q4. Incomplete information provided

Q5. You need a certain kind of food that is rich in protein and simultaneously lacks fats. Here, skimmed milk is relevant - fat has been removed from the milk although protein is still present.
