AB213-2: Determine required sanitary and safety procedures in food and beverage operations.

In a university dining hall and based on FDA, OSHA, and HACCP standards, address the concerns the new chef has when viewing current operations at the dining hall.

Scenario: As the Chef enters the restaurant kitchen she sees the following situation: One preparation person with long hair is grabbing several heads of lettuce from the refrigerator and placing them on a cutting board immediately after the chicken prep person has finished deboning the chicken breasts for lunch. The chicken preparation person throws the knife into a bin of cutlery sitting in tepid soapy water. Then the oven doors are all open on one end of the kitchen while the baker goes to the pantry. There are unlabeled and uncapped drink mixes for the bar located on the shelf with the milk in the refrigerator. A vendor has just left several crates of eggs at the back door and no one seems to be aware of this. An abandoned prep station has an open carton of cream sitting near the burners where someone was obviously sautéing something, but has left the station and there seems to be an open can of oil sitting on top of the ignited burners.

The chef is immediately alarmed and starts to make notes while moving rapidly towards the most urgent issues to prevent someone getting hurt.

Help the chef and write a 2–3 page paper with correct grammar and spelling, and an additional title and references page in APA format with proper citation that addresses the following:

Checklist:

• Determine the sanitary and safety risks. Explain why.
• Identify the agency or standards that have been neglected in the scenario.
• As the chef, explain what steps you would take to correct this situation in the restaurant kitchen.

Question 1: Consider a biallelic locus in an annual plant population. You observe the allele frequencies of allele A and allele T are equal to 0.4 and 0.6 in 2010, respectively.

A) Calculate the heterozygosity (H) of this locus in 2010, assuming the population mating is at random.

B) What is the expected frequency of allele A in 2020?

C) If the effective population size of this population is equal to 1,000, what is the expected heterozygosity of this locus in 2020?

D) If the effective population size is equal to 10 instead, what is the expected heterozygosity in 2020?

E) Based on your calculation, explain why genetic diversity is typically very low in endangered species.

Question 2: The observed heterozygosity (H) of a microsatellite is equal to 0.2% in a diploid population, and the mutation rate (per generation) at this microsatellite locus is equal to 2 x 10^-8.

A) Estimate the effective population size of this population.

B) The census population size of this population is 10⁶. Name two distinct processes that can contribute to the mismatch between the census population size and the effective population size.

Question 3: Suppose there are two annual plant species (A and B). Species A lives in a stable environment and has a constant census population size of 1,000. Species B lives in an unstable environment alternating between dry and wet years. Species B’s census population size is 200 in dry years and 1,800 in wet years. The frequencies of the dry and wet years are equal.

A) What is the effective population size of species A?

B) What is the effective population size of species B?

C) Assume the two species are similar in genome size and mutation rate, which species do you expect to have a higher level of heterozygosity? Why?

Question 4: Suppose a population has an effective population size of 50. In one generation, the average heterozygosity (averaged across loci) is reduced from 0.5 to 0.42. Is the population mating at random? Why?

Question 5: What is the effective population size in a population in which each breeding male controls a harem of 10 females, and the total population consists of 400 males and 400 females?

Provide examples of Orientalism that you have seen in your life. Explain why you think it is an example of Orientalism. This can be from your life experience, or from the media, and so on.

3 Food and Beverage

The food industry has many acronyms that make it easier to remember food safety terms and actions to control foodborne illness. Managers must know what safety precautions are necessary.

Food, Acidity, Temperature, Time, Oxygen, and Moisture is often referred to with the acronym FATTOM. Read the scenario and respond to the checklist item.

Scenario: You are catering a wedding buffet in August outside on a venue’s terrace for a wedding reception for 200 people that begins at 6 p.m. when you know it will be 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

Checklist:

• Explain the impact this acronym FATTOM has on the food and beverage safety for the buffet.

Describe the main point of Federalist paper no. 10.

Why are merger and acquisition strategies popular in many firms competing in the global economy. How would these strategies impact a firm's performance. As a manager how could you use these strategies to spread the risk of an uncertain environment? Explain.

A manager must decide which type of machine to buy, A, B, or C. Machine costs (per individual machine) are as follows:

Product forecasts and processing times on the machines are as follows:

a. Assume that only purchasing costs are being considered. Compute the total processing time required for each machine type to meet demand, how many of each machine type would be needed, and the resulting total purchasing cost for each machine type. The machines will operate 8 hours a day, 230 days a year. (Enter total processing times as whole numbers. Round up machine quantities to the next higher whole number. Compute total purchasing costs using these rounded machine quantities. Enter the resulting total purchasing cost as a whole number. Omit the "$" sign.)

b. Consider this additional information: The machines differ in terms of hourly operating costs: The A machines have an hourly operating cost of $10 each, B machines have an hourly operating cost of $14 each, and C machines have an hourly operating cost of $11 each. What would be the total cost associated with each machine option, including both the initial purchasing cost and the annual operating cost incurred to satisfy demand?(Use rounded machine quantities from Part a. Do not round any other intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to the nearest whole number. Omit the "$" sign.)

Nation’s Capital Fitness, Inc. operates a chain of fitness centers in the Washington, D.C., area. The firm’s controller is accumulating data to be used in preparing its annual profit plan for the coming year. The cost behavior pattern of the firm’s equipment maintenance costs must be determined. The accounting staff has suggested the use of an equation, in the form of Y = a + bX, for maintenance costs. Data regarding the maintenance hours and costs for last year are as follows:

Using the high-low method of cost estimation, estimate the behavior of the maintenance costs incurred by Nation’s Capital Fitness, Inc. Express the cost behavior pattern in equation form. (Round coefficient of X to 2 decimal places and other answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Monthly Maintenance Cost =

Variable Maintenance Cost per hour =

Compute the predicted maintenance cost at 620 hours of activity.

Maintenance Cost =

1. Compute the variable cost per hour and the fixed cost per hour at 630 hours of activity. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Variable Cost per hour =

Fixed Cost per hour =

1. Why is the fixed cost per hour possibly misleading?

multiple choice

• Because it will change as the number of hours changes.

• Because it will not change as the number of hours changes.
