Corn

The sugar you buy in the grocery store or market (powdered sugar, white granulated, brown sugar, etc.) is not made from corn stalks. They are made from either sugar cane or sugar beets. Corn syrup is made from the grain of field corn. That said, there are new cultivars of corn which have been bred and selected from tropical varieties to produce high levels of sugar in the stalks. In more northern areas of the US, these varieties will not produce an ear with grain, but will produce large of amounts of high-sugar-content biomass which would likely be moved into ethanol production. This is similar to the way Brazil uses sugar cane for ethanol production.

Ground yellow corn is yellow corn that has been ground into meal or flour.

Individual corn (maize) stalks have both female and male plant parts, so there is no such thing as "male corn stalk".

No it doesn't !

Chili Con Carne is a South American dish, where the major languages are Spanish & Portugese, brought by the invading Spanish & Portugese. 'Carne' is their word for meat, which went very well with Chili which the locals used a lot to spice up their food.

No. Coal, natural gas, and oil are examples of fossil fuels, as they are the products of organic material that was buried for millions of years. Alcohol is derived from corn, and considered a biofuel.

Demeter has been identified as the Greek goddess of corn. However, Demeter is more properly described the Greek goddess of grain, agriculture and the harvest since use of the word "corn" can be misleading. Corn, in the American sense, refers to a plant (Zea mays) that was imported from the Americas into Europe after Columbus. Corn, in England, refers to wheat and other grains as well.

This question cannot be answered as is without knowing what the yield per unit of area is. However, if you mean 160 cubic feet, a volumetric measurement, then the answer is 128.57023194 bushels.

Corn snakes eat a variety based on preference. Mice, rats, chicks, baby bunnies, quial eggs, etc. Somtimes a snake will refuse to eat anything but what their particular taste calls for. Sometimes this is trial and error, which can be frustrating. I and most herp owners recommend frozen then thawed mice/baby rats for an adult corn snake. Corn snakes can even be particular as to what kind of mice they're eating, be it African soft furred mice, white mice, colored mice, etc. Like i sad, trial and error. good luck =]

Corn has many uses. It is one of the world's most versatile crops.

Please note that 0.7% of all the corn grown in the U.S. is sweet corn, or "veggie corn." 99.3% is field corn, also called commercial corn.

You can imagine the leaves on a corn plant as solar panels. The leaves convert the sun's energy into the kernels on each ear of corn. That means that energy we cannot consume (solar energy) changes form into corn kernels. Those kernels are used in many ways.

The part of the corn plant that is not harvested also has use. It can remain on the crop land and act like a mulch, protecting the land from soil and water erosion. It also composts, adding nutrients back into the soil.

Consult the 2010 World of Corn at the related link below for a full report on the U.S. corn crop and its uses.

In the U.S., the biggest user of corn is the livestock industry. Beef cattle, dairy cattle, hogs, and poultry all consume the corn kernels and change the form of the energy into protein, which we as humans can then consume.

The next biggest user of corn in the U.S. is the ethanol industry. The corn kernels are separated into their various parts, and the starch and cellulosic parts can be turned into ethanol. The by-product of this process called DDGS can be used as a livestock feed. So making ethanol does not remove the opportunity to use that same corn kernel as livestock feed and therefore human food.

A small percentage of the corn industry is used in this country for industrial purposes, like bio-degradable plastics. Basically, any product that uses petroleum can use corn derivatives instead.

A small percentage of the U.S. corn crop is turned directly into a human food source like corn meal or corn oil.

About 7% of the U.S. corn crop is made into HFCS, or high fructose corn syrup. HFCS is certified as a natural product by the US government. The corn kernel is refined into the sweetener. This is similar to the refining process that turns sugar beets and sugar cane into what we call "table sugar."

A large portion of the U.S. corn crop is exported around the world and used for the same reasons stated above.

The corn has ears and the potatoes have eyes.

Bt-corn is a type of genetically modified organism, termed GMO. A GMO is a plant or animal that has been genetically modified through the addition of a small amount of genetic material from other organisms through molecular techniques. Currently, the GMOs on the market today have been given genetic traits to provide protection from pests, tolerance to pesticides, or improve its quality. Examples of GMO field crops include Bt-potatoes, Bt-corn, Bt-sweet corn, Roundup Ready soybeans, Roundup Ready Corn, and Liberty Link corn.

To dry field corn, most farmers use a dryer system in the corn silo after the corn is put into the silo. If the corn cannot be dried this way, a standing corn crib that is at least 3 feet off the ground can be used to let the corn air dry. The legs of the corn crib should be lashed with stove pipe to prevent rats and field mice from getting into the corn.

Flour, corn flour, maize flour.

Snakes respond to their environment by reacting to the temperature. The snakes for example will find a hole to make its home if the surface is too hot. Also, the snake will shed its skin more frequently if it is in an unusually hot environment.

Kernel corn is not digested, it is a food that most people eat whole. This is due to lack of the necessary digestive enzymes.

it is living because you are all dumb asses

A miller is a person who operates a mill. This can be used to grind wheat into flour. Traditional mills were water wheel or wind operated, these were later replaced by steam and other methods of powering the mill.

In non-motorised or poor societies, grain is still ground by pounding grain in a mortar with a pestle. This very labour intensive and time consuming task is usually done by women.

It might matter depending on what you are making. If you put the whole corn in a blender or food processor and chopped it a bit you would get close to the same result.

its probably ok if it will eat it. i cornsnakes eat mice or rats though. sometimes small birds

An advantage of corn-based biodegradable plastics is that they can be broken down by bacteria. However, making and using corn-based products also has its drawbacks. People sometimes cut down rain forests to make way for cornfields. Corn that would otherwise be used for food is sometimes diverted to make disposable products.
