1) Is there a relationship between starch and sugar contents and the degree of ripening of bananas ? Explain in detail

2) starch should give a negative result in benedicts (or fehling's) test; however , it usually shows a trace of simple sugars present . Explain that result .

3) Based on what you have learned , explain why over-ripened bananas are turning mushy and the pulp becomes sweet . ( The browing is a different process that has to do with oxidation )

Plot the total, marginal, and average products and explain in detail the relationship between each pair of curves. Explain why marginal product first rises, then declines, and ultimately becomes negative. What bearing does the law of diminishing returns have on short-run costs? Be specific. “When marginal product is rising, marginal cost is failing. And when marginal product is diminishing. Marginal cost is rising.” Illustrate and explain graphically.

1) A 1000 kg rocket travels in outer space at 5000 m/s. The rocket then separates into two sections: a 250 kg section that travels at 8000 m/s, and a 750 kg section. All of this takes place in a straight line that you can consider as your x-axis. (Do not assume kinetic energy is constant throughout this process.)

A) What is the total momentum of the system before the separation?

B) What is the total kinetic energy of the system before the separation?

C) What is the final velocity of the more massive 750 kg rocket section?

D) What is change in the system’s kinetic energy in Joules?

When we talk about operant conditioning, we often use the terms positive and negative and reinforcement and punishment.

A) Explain what positive reinforcement is, provide an example, and make sure to explain why this is an example of positive reinforcement.

B) Explain what negative reinforcement is, provide an example, and make sure to explain why this is an example of negative reinforcement.

C) Explain what positive punishment is, provide an example, and make sure to explain why this is an example of positive punishment.

D) Explain what negative punishment is, provide an example, and make sure to explain why this is an example of negative punishment.

(1) “Sales taxes are fairer than income taxes because sales taxes cannot be avoided by the rich.” Discuss & evaluate this idea, using tax policy concepts to provide support for your evaluation. Is it possible to design a sales tax that is more progressive than a personal income tax? What would this tax structure look like?

(2) The two most important state taxes are income and general sales taxes, although states also make substantial use of excise taxes, direct business taxes (usually a corporate income tax), and others. List and discuss factors that might influence a state in choosing between an income and general sales tax. What can these differences tell us about both a State’s policy priorities and economies? What is the relevance of Charles Tiebout when examining or understanding a State’s fiscal choices as it relates to tax policy?

(3) States are increasingly relying on revenue from gambling to generate funds for their financial plans on annual basis. Lotteries, for example, have been on the rise with states providing their own jackpots, and increasing the jack-pots by utilizing multi-state games. Please provide some of the policy rationale for using this revenue source, along with some of the issues that policy makers should focus on in the future.
