Why do grocery stores spray their fresh produce with water

Biology
1 answer:
spayn [35]4 years ago
3 0

This allows the fruits to maintain their plumpness and freshness hence keep them appealing for customers to shop.

Explanation:

Spraying water reduces the loss of water by the fruits to the environment by evaporation hence keeps them hydrated. When the fruits tend to wilt, the sprayed water is absorbed into the fruit though osmosis (because the fruit cells are hypertonic in comparison to the sprayed water) allowing the cells maintain their turgor pressure. This tugor pressure is important in ensuring the fruits look full and fresh.

The diagram below shows some of the steps in protein synthesis.
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

According to the diagram shown, the section of DNA used to make the mRNA strand is known as a gene (option 2).

Explanation:

Gene consists of a DNA fragment that codes for the synthesis of a specific protein that defines the structural or functional trait of a living being.

When DNA is transcribed into mRNA, each section of transcribed DNA is part of a gene. The information travels to ribosomes in the cytoplasm where protein synthesis occurs.

A complete DNA molecule forms a chromosome, which contains the genes with information to define specific traits of a species.

The other options are not correct because:

<em>     1.Carbohydrate is a biomolecule that is not involved in the genetic process. </em>

<em>     3. Ribosome is where protein synthesis occurs. </em>

<em>     4. Chromosome is the complete DNA molecule.</em>

Describe how fertility drugs help women to become pregnant​
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Fertility drugs contain FSH and LH, which stimulate eggs to mature in the ovary. Fertility treatments increase a woman's chance of becoming pregnant, although the treatment may not always work. On the other hand, because the treatment boosts the production of mature eggs, it increases the chance of twins or triplets.
