Cranberries and grapes may have therapeutic value. A cranberry company obtained the patent for a process to extract the oil from

cranberry seeds. According to the patent, this oil can be used to treat breast cancer or to reduce its incidence. The oil can be used in drinks and foods. A grape juice company claims to have evidence that certain grapes have health benefits ranging from improving cardiovascular health to improving cognitive brain function in the elderly. These claims will be tested by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) before the companies are allowed to market their products for “treating” ailments or “improving” health. Until then, the companies can describe that their products “help to maintain” or “support” health. Until studies support their claims, the companies cannot ascribe direct health benefits to their products. Why would the FDA perform tests when a cranberry company and a grape company have already conducted research on the same products? The FDA is the only organization that can test if health actually improves. Tests that are performed by any company which benefits financially are considered unreliable. The FDA tests give reliability to the results of improved health obtained by each company. Tests performed by the FDA follow established scientific methods, but those performed by companies do not.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-The FDA tests give reliability to the results of improved health obtained by each company.

Explanation:

The Food and Drug Administration or FDA is a United States federal agency established to control the food safety under the United States Department of Health and Human Services.

The FDA helps control the issues related to the safety of the food and food products like dietary supplements along with pharmaceutical drugs, biopharmaceuticals, cosmetics and other products under the Acts.

In the given question the juices before released to the market are tested by the FDA as the FDA results support the results of the research performed by the company and the give the reliability to the results.

Thus, the selected option re the correct answer.

Does plant food X have an effect on the production of tomatoes?
steposvetlana [31]
Hypothesis: If Plant Food X is used on a tomato plant, then production rate will increase. 
experiment: Gather 2 tomato plants of the same height and age. Make two groups, a control group (a tomato plant without use of fertilizer) and an experimental group (a tomato plant with using Plant Food X).
For one week, give each plant the same amount of water, humidity, sunlight, and air temperature. after a week measure the height and number of tomatoes produced. gather the info in a table and compare to hypothesis after one week.

19. Which graph best shows how enzyme activity changes as the temperature is adjusted above and below the enzyme’s optimum tempe
aniked [119]
The graph would be the 4th picture, a bell-shaped graph.

The optimum temperature should have the highest rate of enzyme activity. When the temperature is increased or decreased, the enzyme activity would be decreased. The graph that follows both conditions should have a bell shape graph.

In many states, the legal limit for all bacteria present in pasteurized milk is not to exceed 20,000 CFU/mL. You have been away
zaharov [31]

Answer:

a. The formula for finding the number of colonies in a given volume is,  

CFU/ml, here CFU is the colony forming units or the number of colonies formed in a volume plated in ml × dilution

The dilution factor given in the question is 1 × 10⁻⁴ and the number of colonies given is 186. Therefore, the number of bacteria present in the given 1 ml of the milk is,  

CFU/ ml = 186 / 1 × 10⁻⁴ = 186 × 10⁴.  

Hence, the concentration of bacteria in the milk is 186 × 10⁴ CFU/ml.  

b) The limit of the bacterial concentration in the pasteurized milk is 20000 CFU/ml, however, it can be seen that the sample of the milk possess more concentration of bacteria than the desired value. Therefore, the milk is not safe to drink by Public Health Standards.
