Question

How do you bruise a mango by hand? (please state step by step method) thanks!

Answer 1

any utensil can be used in the process.

Answer 2

1. In which situation will a mutation not persist or spread in a population?
(Points : 1)
The mutation is only lethal in the homozygous recessive state.
The mutation is always immediately lethal when it occurs.
The mutation does not affect selection.
The mutation increases reproductive advantage.

Answer 3

drop it on the ground a few times lol

Answer 4

from what height?

Answer 5

3-5 feet. too high and your whole fruit explodes

Answer 6

yeah, i'd say from waist-high.

Answer 7

A fruit exporting company has been losing about 30% of their crops after harvesting. This is caused by diseases which affects the stored fruits. The supervisor reported that many of the diseased fruits also have bruises obtained from harvesting. He suggested that the source of mechanical damage increased the chances of the fruit being diseased. Plan and design an experiment to investigate if bruises contributes to quick decay.
For this lab, I have jotted down a few ideas to get started but I somewhat get the ‘unsure’ feeling. So, once again can you please help me with this? Here’s what I need help with:

What is an appropriate hypothesis for this?
What method/procedure can you use to test the hypothesis ( I selected a batch of mangoes to demonstrate the experiment on)
State the variables (controlled, responding and manipulated) p.s I'm stuck here.
What are the expected results?
What would be some possible limitations?

That is all ! I hope it’s not too much. Sorry if it is.

Answer 8

hypothesis, mechanical damage imparted on fruit causes bruising which increases the chances of fruit disease.

State the variables
controlled: time allowed for disease onset, temperature which bruised fruit is left at. (this section can be a long)
responding: something that tells you the fruit is diseased
manipulated: vary amount of bruising (maybe height or times dropped?)

What are the expected results? higher bruising, higher risk for disease
What would be some possible limitations? lab (controlled) settings (no environmental causes, such as heavy rain, bugs, etc).

Answer 9

what exactly is the temperature at which the bruised fruits are stored?

Answer 10

you would choose it, you'd obviously wanna model the environment the fruit is grown in.

Answer 11

Step 1) grab mango
Step 2) proceed to throw mango repeatedly at wall or another persons body: preferably the head.
Step 3) Win the lottery
Step 4) Spend all money on as many mangos as you can afford.
Step 5) Put all mangos in a pit
Step 6) Thros a dance party on top of the mangos, make sure to launch fireworks: THIS IS A KEY STEP
Step 7) Rub your belly on the mango closest to the top
Step 8) Sniff the mango pile 3 time and its bruised.
