If the pesticide killed 78% at first and now kills only 45% dat means the effectiveness if the pesticide has reduced by 33%. This could happen only if the pesticide was left open or in non favourable condition

How can carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins be detected in foods?
tino4ka555 [31]
The Benedict’s Test is the test which can detect carbohydrates and glucose in foods. During this process, the sample or the food is placed into a test tube and then some drops of Benedict's solution is added to it,and is then put into a beaker of boiling water. When the mixture of food and the Benedict substance turns reddish orange instead of staying blue, this means that it is positive. The mixture has simple sugar or has carbohydrates or glucose. On the other hand, lipids are tested using the brown paper test. When the paper turns transparent when a drop of food is put into it, it means that is is positive as well. When you want to test if the food has proteins, you have to test it with Biurets. Observe if the color change when you put some Biurets solution to the food sample. It is positive if the food turns light purple. Test if the food is positive with starches through the use of iodine. Food having iodine drops should turn purple instead of staying a yellow color.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Hay infusion refers to an amalgamation that can be formed by taking samples from different sources like rivers, lakes, ponds, and others. It is one of the best procedures that can elevate the density of the bacteria cell at any specific time interval.  

In the given case, even after boiling hay infusion for one hour, growth was observed in the flask after one day. It can be due to certain factors like the hay infusion may have been comprising some endospore, which is resistant to heat or may comprise some kinds of bacteria that can withstand high temperatures.  

Because of which, even after heating the infusion for one hour, it did not get influenced by the heat and got the chance to grow when it got optimum temperature again at the time when the sample was left as such.
