By far the largest variety of materials that bombard us are made up of organic elements. The beginning of the Ninetieth century was also the dawn of chemistry‚ all organic substances were understood as all being materials

Importance of Organic Foods The definition of organic agriculture is farming with the use of synthetic chemicals.

This experiment has been carried out to observe whether the hamster prefers organic or conventional foods better. Hammy was put into the place where there were two identical pieces of food‚ one organic‚ one conventional and it gets to choose either of them to eat. The reason hamster is used instead of the human is because it is unbiased‚ it judges the food from the smells unlike human that we have more complex thinking and tends to be considering about other things. Also‚ the human body is not good
