Explain the use of enzymes in food production by means of examples. You must include the example of lactase. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions (up to a million times) in living organisms. Acting as catalysts they are not consumed nor altered in the process of converting the specific set of reactants into specific products. In food production‚ enzymes are greatly appreciated by their accelerated effect in biochemical processes and are mostly used in what we

The “treadmill of production” model (Schnaiberg and Gould 1995) suggests that nature and natural resources will be intensively exploited by economic interests which will resist the imposition of environmental protection for regulations‚ because it seriously inhibits their operations or reduce their profits and will be supported by political elites dependent on growth and revenue generated by these economic interests. Some of the reasons why states’ policies of building dams are similar: a perceived

Forecasting Forecast can help managers by reducing some of the uncertainty‚ thereby enabling them to develop more meaningful plans than they might otherwise. A forecast is a statement about the future. Features common to all forecasts 1. The same underlying causal system that existed in the past will continue to exist in the future. 2. Forecasts are rarely perfect; actual results usually differ from predicted values. 3. Forecasts for groups of items tend to be more accurate than forecasts

SEEDLING PRODUCTION SYSTEM Seedling production system is a concept used in production of healthy seedlings especially those of vegetables‚ herbs‚ flowers‚ trees and many crops propagated from seedlings. These are seedlings with a controlled environment. Seedlings are produced in seed trays‚ with a growing medium either made out of peat / vermiculite or bark or other media found suitable. With controlled amount of sunlight‚ water and air flow‚ with a calculated fertigation system (water and fertilizer

Ski Jacket Production Executive Summary The problem is to determine the optimal production level of the Egress new designed jacket given the uncertainty in the forecasted demand. As oppose to determining a single profit value in the deterministic approach‚ the probabilistic method will incorporate the uncertainty in estimated demand and provide insights of the range of profit outcomes and its associated risk (deviation from mean). The key issue is to understand impact of demand uncertainty and
