The correct answer is Creaming.
Creaming is the technique of softening solid fat, like shortening or butter, into a smooth mass and then blending it with other ingredients. In milk biochemistry it involves a process in which fat droplets come together in larger clusters that rise and float to the top of the milk.
Answer:
Plate Tectonics
Explanation:
The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle.

I belive your answer is 5.95
Explanation:
Answer:
The region of retina devoid of photoreceptor cells (rod cells and cone cells)
Explanation:
The retina is the layer of the eyeball and is packed with rod cells and cone cells responsible for night and day vision respectively. The blind spot is the region in the retina where no rod cells and cone cells are present.
Absence of these photoreceptor cells ensures that no vision is formed in this part of the retina. However, the blind spot serves as the site from where the optic nerve passes through the retina and serves to transmit the impulse to the brain.
Answer:
Option A, a drug to treat high blood pressure that reversibly inhibits an enzyme catalyzing production of a chemical that causes blood vessels to contract
Explanation:
The complete question is
If you were working for a pharmaceutical company as part of a drug discovery team, which of these enzyme inhibitors would you suggest as a productive avenue for drug development?
a) a drug to treat high blood pressure that reversibly inhibits an enzyme catalyzing production of a chemical that causes blood vessels to contract
b) a drug to treat diabetes that irreversibly inhibits an enzyme in the metabolic pathway to synthesize glucose
c) a compound that acts as a competitive inhibitor for a digestive enzyme produced only in the presence of certain foods
d) a compound that inhibits enzymes by significantly changing the ph throughout the body
Solution
Productive avenue of a drug simply means producing an drug that not only treats the main disease or disorder but also functions to inhibit the causative agent activity. In case of option A, both the objectives of producing drug are met and hence it is the right choice.
High blood pressure usually affects the blood vessels by narrowing them and in severe cases may rupture them. If a drug as stated in option A is produced, it will not only rectify the effects of high blood pressure but will also prevent the blood vessels from narrowing by inhibiting the activity of enzymes responsible for producing chemical that leads to blood vessel contraction.
Hence, option A is correct
