A

a) transformation

B

b) electrophoresis

C

c) downstream processing

D

d) upstream processing

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

After the formation of the product in bioreactors, it undergoes through some processes before a finished product is ready for marketing. The processes include separation and purification of prouducts which is collectively called as downstream processing.

The beautiful phenomenon of the rainbow is a combination of different phenomena - dispersion, internal reflection and refrection of light. The rainbow appears in the sky after a rainfall. The water droplets act as small prisms. When sunlight enters the water droplets present in teh atmosphere, they refract and disperse the incident Sunlight. Then, they reflect internally inside the droplet and finally again refract it. As a collective effect of all the phenomena, the seven coloured rainbow is observed. Q. Give a diagrammatic respresentation of Rainbow Production.

A and B are two separate reservoirs of water. Capacity of reservoir A is double the capacity of reservoir Bdot Both the reservoirs are filled completely with water, their inlets are closed and then the water is released simultaneously from both the reservoirs. The rate of flow of water out of each reservoir at any instant of time is proportional to the quantity of water in the reservoir at the time. One hour after the water is released, the quantity of water is reservoir A is 1 1/2 times the quantity of water in reservoir Bdot After how many hours do both the reservoirs have the same quantity of water?

(c ) calculate the stored energy in the electric field before and after the process . (d ) Using the expression for the force between the plates , find the work done by the person polling the plates apart . (e ) Show and justify that no heat is produced during this transfer of charge as the separation is increased.

Sita is a owner of confectionary. She got an order from one of her customers to prepare 150 loaves of bread for a birthday party. On her making process of bread, though there is a time constrain, she prepared the dough and kept it aside undisturbed for few hours. Later she made the required number of breads and delivered to customer on time. A day after the party, customer appreciated Sita for the soft and good quality of bread that she supplied to party. (a) Why Sita kept aside the dough undisturbed? (b) Name the living organism involved in the process. (c) What are the products of the process? (d) How this process enhances the quality of food?
