Answer:

1) Refrigerate or freeze

If you freeze or refrigerate the food, the bacteria or whatever organism growth will slow down in the food by a Greta amount due to the coldness. Refrigerate might be a temporary food soteage for like a week or 2/ month max. While freezing will just freeeze the bacteria and mold on the food which can be stored up to 3- 12+ months even. But then again it will be most likely flavorless by the end or have no nutrients value. You can stores mik in the freezer for a while but its not recommended to taste, same for other thing syou usually see in the fridge, eggs/ vegetables/fruits/ milks/ yogurts/ etc.

2) No moisture, no water of any kind (drying in the sun or salted)

So every living thing we know of needs water. Including bacteria and mold. Without water, theres no place to thrive. No place to thrive means no bacteria and food is safe for a good amount of time. Dried foods can last a really long time, sure some types are really unpleasant but its edible. But you can’t techincally “dry” meat since it will be A whole nest for flies before it even reaches the halfway mark. You can slat it which will lessen he time but still really efficient. Salt absorbs water and breaks down any type of Stuff. Its like a mini acid.

3) Canned good and no air access (Pressurized/ controlled container)

This is done by putting all your favortie food in a metal container. With no air access, the bacteria or mold in the food already in can’t escape and new ones can’t get in. THe can then is boiled to a certain tempature where then the bacteria dies. Now the food can even be perishable stuff like meat (most common fishes), fruits and even a nice can of liquid soup. Nothin g can get in. Nothing can get out but nothing CAN get out becuase eveythign is dead. Canned food can last REALLY LONG, good for long term expeditions without a fire or food.

Answer:

Drying is one of the most ancient food preservation techniques, which reduces water activity sufficiently to prevent bacterial growth. Refrigeration preserves food by slowing down the growth and reproduction of microorganisms and the action of enzymes which cause food to rot

Answer:

The bulging eyes of most frogs allow them to see in front, to the sides, and partially behind them. The eyes help push the food down its throat. Eyes positioned atop the head give frogs a field of vision of almost 180 degrees. This peripheral vision helps them spot predators and prey.

The fluid mosaic model describes the plasma membrane as consisting of
Hoochie [10]
The answer is e, as in terms of d, proteins are not sandwiched between the two bilayers, but wedged in the bilayer to selectively let in different molecules. With c, phospholipids do not drift, into the membrane, for it is the membrane itself. With b it is the other way around, the phospholipid bilayer makes up the membrane, and proteins are embedded into it. Lastly, for a, a fluid mosaic model wouldn’t portray phospholipids drifting in the dark phospholipid bilayer, as they are an independent molecule consisting only as the cell membrane. Hope that’s helpful! :)

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

C. Diploid condition

Explanation:

A Karyotype is the pictorial display that shows chromosome arrangement and number in a cell. The Karyotype shows any abnormalities in the nuclear material (chromosomes). In a carrot plant that was cloned from carrot root, the clones should possess the same features as the original plant.

A Karyotype of both plants i.e. clone and the original plant should show that their cells have a diploid number of chromosomes i.e. Two sets of chromosomes. Since a carrot plant is a diploid organism.
