<span>Normally sterilizing food using radiation does not induce radioactivity but sometimes it may change the taste, texture of the food and it may also destroy the nutrients. radiation is used to kill the harmful bacteria and to increase the shelf life. when the radiation is very energetic it alters the food structure but it does not make it radioactive. To become radioactive one has to make a nucleus unstable. ionizing radiation normally cannot do this. FDA has established maximum energy levels for radiation to prevent the treated foods from becoming radioactive. The energy levels of the rays are too low to induce radioactivity in the food. So there is no harm in consuming treated foods.</span>
Liquid as first of all, the particles aren't compact ( which would mean solid) nor are they spread out ( which would mean gas) nor is it plasma as we aren't given protons or electrons.
Answer:
Yes (It's more inefficient)
Explanation:
in ecology there are things called primary producers (plants) that are eaten by primary consumers (cows and chickens) and then there are humans, secondary consumers, that eat cows and chickens for energy.
The further we move from eating primary producers the more inefficient we become in consuming energy. Meaning, it requires a lot more natural energy consumption to support a human that lives on meat only as compared to a human that eats plants only. this inefficiency only magnifies when communities practice unsustainable food methods.
There are sustainable ways to eat meat, but (at least in the US) our current conventions of meat production are unsustainable and environmentally destructive.
