The Australian Sugar Cane Industry The Australian sugar cane industry is one of the largest industries in Australia and continues to grow today. It is the third largest raw sugar supplier after Brazil and India despite sugar being produced in over one hundred countries. It is also the seventh largest agricultural exporter in Australia. It is the second largest export crop after wheat and the fourth major export earning agricultural product. Its value of production is worth 1.5-2.5 billion dollars

from the potato‚ because the cells in the potato would have burst if even more was absorbed‚ whereas the length stayed the same. In Cylinder (B) the mass and length increased‚ which means the potato cells absorbed some Sodium Chloride (NaCl)‚ so the cells don’t shrivel up and die. For Cylinder 3 the mass and length also increased‚ like cylinder (B). The potato cells would have shrivelled up if water was released‚ so by absorbing more it avoided this. c.)

third reaction involves molecular iodine becoming a dark blue starch;I2(aq) + starch blue-black complex3. These three reactions react in a sequence. In any reaction the concentration is exponentially related to the rate of the reaction. The rate of the reaction is dependent on potassium iodate4. Therefore as the concentration increases‚ the rate of the reaction also increases. Since the rate of the reaction is inversely proportional to time‚ as the

Neuroscience Institute have been studying signs of sugar addiction in rats for years. Until now‚ the rats under study have met two of the three elements of addiction. They have demonstrated a behavioral pattern of increased intake and then showed signs of withdrawal. His current experiments captured craving and relapse to complete the picture. "If bingeing on sugar is really a form of addiction‚ there should be long-lasting effects in the brains of sugar addicts‚" Hoebel said. "Craving and relapse are

Objective To investigate the effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction Photosynthesis is a process that is essential for every living organism. Organic substances‚ such as glucose‚ are made from carbon dioxide and water by light energy from the sun. The light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted to chemical energy. During the process‚ oxygen is released as a by-product. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by a few of factors‚ including

by the people is the “sugar controversy “declaring sugar as an addiction like any other drug heroine‚ morphine or codeine. http://jn.nutrition.org/content/139/3/623. In early times sugar was taken as a pleasure of life and with passage of time it became a need for people and dependency on the product increased making its use in not just food items but also medicines. According to the reports by [WHO] world health organization and [FHO] food agriculture organization sugar is the bone of contention

Sugar taps into a powerful human preference for sweet taste‚ says Marcia Pelchat‚ PhD‚ a scientist at the Monell Chemical Senses Center‚ a basic research institute in Philadelphia. “We’re born to like sugar‚” she says. Sugar is sucrose‚ a molecule composed of 12 atoms of carbon‚ 22 atoms of hydrogen‚ and 11 atoms of oxygen. Like all compounds made from these three elements‚ sugar is a carbohydrate. It’s found naturally in most plants‚ but especially in sugarcane and sugar beets. The

happens to a carrot or a potato if you place them in two different solutions. Osmosis has a lot to do with this experiment and is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis only deals with water and is a type of diffusion. The difference between all three solutions is that in a hypertonic solution the cells fluid rushes out of the cell and causes it to shrivel. In a hypotonic solution water rushes into the cell and causes the cell to expand and eventually
