In the u.s., about what percentage of all food expenditures is now accounted for by meals eaten out?

Biology

quester [9]3 years ago

<span>Eating away from home is playing an increasing large role in the diet and the household budgets of American families. Back in 1970 approximately 26 percent of all food spending was on food away from home; by 2012, that amount had risen to 43 percent. The increase can be attributed to a greater percentage of women employed outside the home, more two-earner households with the resulting higher incomes, as well as more affordable and convenient fast food outlets. The downfall of this statistic is the contribution all that fast food makes to higher levels of obesity and lower dietary nutritional quality.</span>

White raven [17]

Answer:

True blue is a rare color in plants. There are some flowers with blue hues but foliage plants tend to be more gray or green than blue. Green- and gold-colored foliage plants are everywhere. This plant is considered the grandfather of all blue-leaved hostas, and its thick, rounded, corrugated blue leaves develop into a 4-foot-wide by 2-foot-tall clump.

Determine the results from a cross of a mother who is heterozygous for tongue rolling with a father who is homozygous recessive
grandymaker [24]
In order to determine the results from a father who is homozygous recessive for the tongue rolling trait, T, and a mother who is heterozygous for the trait, a Punett square can be used to determine both the resulting genotype (allele combination) and phenotype (observable characteristics). The results are 50% Tt and 50% tt. Thus, the cross would result to 1:1 ratio of tongue rolling to non-tongue rolling offsprings.

Derived from a 6 membered ring. Contains Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

b. Nucleotides  

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are examples of structures formed from nucleotides. And in relation to the composition of DNA, we have the formation of the largest cellular macromolecule, all formed by nucleotides.

The nucleotide is a group formed by the association of 3 molecules - a nitrogen base, a phosphate group and a pentose glycide. Thus, we may have variations within these ligands, such as: in DNA we have the presence of pentose deoxyribose, while in RNA we have the presence of pentose ribose.

The nucleotides have differences in relation to its nitrogen base, which can be purine or pyrimidine. Purine bases vary in Adenine and Guanine, while pyrimidine bases are classified in Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine. Purine and pyrimidine bases are complementary and each have specific binders. Thus, we have that the purine base Adenina, binds with the pyrimidine bases Timina and Uracila, while the base Guanina binds exclusively to Cytosine and vice versa.

What does a scientist observe in a chemical's reaction rate? the speed at which the reactants change to products over a given ti
kvasek [131]

Answer:

The speed at which the reactants change to products over a given time.

Explanation:

A chemical's <u>reaction rate</u><u> is the change in the concentration of a reactant or a product with time (in moles per second)</u>.

Remember that during a chemical reaction, reactants are converted to products. Or what is the same, products are formed at the expense of reactants. This can be represented:

reactants → products

Therefore,<u> the progress of a reaction can be followed measuring the decrease in concentration of the reactants or the increase in concentration of the products.</u>

According to the temperature and other parameters, the reaction rate can increase or decrease.

Describe how humans’ way of life has changed. Begin with hunter-gatherers and end with life after the Industrial Revolution.
iragen [17]

Answer:

Ever since the existence of life of humans on Earth, the humans have been making progress to understand themselves and the mother nature.

In the start, the humans were hunter- gatherers. Hunter- gatherers can be described as humans which use wild life plants and animals for food. The humans used to live in jungles and eat the wild- life plants and animals. They used leaves from the trees to cover their bodies. Heat was produced by rubbing the rocks.

After this time, the humans learned the techniques of cultivating plants for food. They started cultivating crops and depend on them for living. During this time, humans learned the art of farming and agriculture. But they couldn't understand the effects of various pathogens infecting the crops and humans at that time.

After this time, humans learned the art of preserving foods in different forms like pickles etc. They also learned that certain types of plants could be used to treat wounds and other diseases.

With the passage of time, people learned to make and use machinery for making their tasks easier. The usage of machinery progressed rapidly and the industrial revolution began. People became more diverted to this sector rather than farming. They started to move towards the cities to find better jobs in industries.

Life after industrial revolution was much easier as humans had made a lot of equipments which aid them to have a better life style. Science has been developing since that time day by day.
