Why does food last longer if exposed to gamma radiation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Gamma radiation doesn't change the food in any way; it merely removes bacteria so thoroughly that the food keeps fresh as long as it stays sealed. Normal "uncontaminated" food contains enough bacteria that they will eventually grow into a large population and rot the food.

What are all the reasons that eggs are used in baking?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I'm going to answer this assuming you mean regular chicken eggs. The four types of eggs used in baking are whole eggs, egg yolks, egg whites, and meringue. Meringue is simply egg whites which have been beaten until they are light and fluffy, and hold a stiff peak. This is commonly done with many cake recipes to increase the volume and lightness of the cake.

Is the amount of vitamins or b12 in five hour energy dangerous?

User Avatar

Asked by Kobikooger

Personally, I believe it isn't. Think about it, instant energy? All you would be doing is putting chemicals in your body. Unhealthy. The best thing to do to get energy is get at least 8 hours of sleep at night, and eat healthy, and make sure to drink water (8 glasses a day, which is about 64 ounces).

How long can fresh cream cake be unrefrigerated?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Foods that are left out in room temperature for more than an hour can begin bacteria growth. Our stomach acids can kill some of these bacterias but not all and some can make you very sick. Keep foods OUT of the danger zone- Above 40 degrees and Below 140 degrees. Between these temperatures bacteria lives and breeds on our foods.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Okay, it is simple physics. Say you dont poke the second hole for air flow. the milk is pressured to come out of one opening and therefore very difficult to pour. The forces that work on the can, and the air surrounding it need an exit, while the liquid escapes its container...i think. In other words, physics.

Why does chicken change color when cooked?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Meat turns brown when you cook it because of a protein called myoglobin, which is also what makes red meat red, not blood. So how does the myoglobin end up making the meat turn brown when cooked? This darkening effect is due to the oxidation state of the iron atoms in myoglobin. When the myoglobin is exposed to oxygen, before you cook the meat, the iron atom oxidation level is +2 and it is bound to a dioxygen molecule (O2), which makes the meat appear bright red. As you cook the meat, this iron atom loses an electron and goes to a +3 oxidation level with this process ending up turning the meat brown. So now you know why meat turns brown!
