The product I chose was coffee because who does not love it! The process of fermentation involves a reaction of bacteria and yeast to break down sugars, which in return creates acids. There are two ways of fermenting coffee. The first way they ferment coffee is by putting the coffee cherries in a container, monitoring temperature control, and being exposed to the oxygen. Over time the microorganisms get to work. The second way of fermentation is a process in which the coffee cherries are laid in a tank of water, allowing the microorganism to start their work. When these methods of fermentation are successful, it strengthens the coffee’s quality.  Also, coffee and cacao beans go through a similar fermentation process. Cacao powder is made from fermented beans that have not been roasted, unlike cocoa, which is pressed at a high temperature.  Both cacao and coffee rely on a microbial process or fermentation for more flavor.  According to Dr.DeVuyst American society for microbiology February 1, 2019 emphasized how each stage of processing influences the taste of coffee remains mostly uncharted. “We were aware of many different micro-organisms during wet coffee fermentation — enterobacteria, lactic acid bacteria, yeasts, acetic acid bacteria, bacilli, and filamentous fungi,” said Dr. De Vuyst, but it is still unknown how most bacteria influence this process.   https://perfectdailygrind.com/2018/06/coffee-fermentation-what-is-it-how-can-it-improve-coffee-quality/  American Society for Microbiology. “Microbes help make the coffee.” ScienceDaily.

It has to be 10 pages and mainly about what is Genetic Engineering and what impact does it have on the world today and its possible future? and what are the pros and cons of genetic engineering? the focus is only on these two questions the first. do no use more than 1 or 2 quotes in one paragraph.

Type  a two page discussion about Mass Extinction. Is another one coming?  What might be the reasons? etc.  This is open ended without restrictions. You can use any sources and do not have to cite references.  Please make sure that you have used appropriate margins, double space, and have not used up half the page with the your title, your name, my name, name of course, etc.  That ends up where students are only turning in 1 and half pages of discussion.

Stopping bleeding in the human body requires different biological steps that are interdependent. Write an essay where you identify and explain each one of these steps.

Because steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs are illegal in most sports, some athletes are turning to blood doping. Research and describe the process of blood doping.

Think about the molecules we mentioned in this chapter (ch 3), and the chemical interactions discussed in chapter 2. Each has a specific function. Some molecules are drawn to water, and some repel water. How does this phenomenon affect protein formation? Cell Membrane formation? State why these would be important functions in an entire living organism? (Hint: think of the compartments of your body” (min. 150 words due by Wed.)
