Background Information To fully understand the purpose of the research one must understand the relationship between bumble bees and humans. Most people are not the biggest fans of bumble bees, especially those who have been on the receiving end of their sting, however, bumble bees and people are able to coexist because people need the plants that the bees pollinate to live. While this analogy is not perfect, it does illustrate interactions that occur in an emulsion. An emulsion occurs when two liquids are suspended together, even though they do not mix well. The two liquids are stabilized by an emulsifier, just as the necessity of plants keep people from destroying all the bumble bees. The emulsion that this research investigates is heavy …show more content…
Before the final product of butter is created, there are three stages that will occur while shaking. First the whipping cream starts as a liquid, which is the state that the fat globules are floating around. As the shaking begins, the fat globules smash into each other which causes them to break open. This is when a sloshing sound will be heard in the container. As the shaking continues, the sloshing noise will begin to fade and the container becomes a little heavier. At this point the fat particles that were in the globule now flow out and separate from the water to form their own clump. Finally, after the milk and fat particles stick together, the sloshing will turn into thud sounds as the butter that has formed hits the container. After enough interruption, the clump gets bigger and bigger to form a solid amount of butter. Nevertheless, as these particles go through this physical change, there are other factors that could affect the portion of butter cream supplied from …show more content…
This is based on the fact that temperature has an effect on the rate of reaction. “The collations theory says that as more collisions in a system occur, there will be more combinations of molecules bouncing into each other” (Rate of Reaction). If the temperature increased, the fat particles have more energy and begin to move faster, causing the fat particles to combine and clump at a faster rate. If the cream was cooled, the fat particles would collide less and move at a slower rate, resulting in a slower reaction time. Consequently, if the cream is too hot, the fat globules soften and collapse, enabling the globules to collide and form the clump that will create butter. Therefore, if the various temperatures of cream are shaken for the same amount of time, the room temperature will yield the greatest amount of fat mass from

Honey Bees Research Paper

Honey bees (as shown in Figure 1) make up 80% of the world’s pollinating insects. One third of crops around the world depend on pollination and need honey bees in order to grow and survive. For example, apples, carrots, and onions have a 100% dependence on insect pollinators and 90% of that pollination comes from the honey bee while almonds depend on honey bees 100%. It is estimated that honey bees pollinate fifteen billion dollars worth of crops in the United States alone. About one third of every…

some plots he learned in movies and books, which lead him to Broadmoor. Later on, he tried to convince the psychiatrists that he was not mentally ill. For instance, he talked to the nurse about an article he read, that the U.S army was training bumble bees to detect explosives, and this behavior, was recorded by the nurse, as a sign of illusion. Also, he tended to stay in his own room, because patients in adjacent wards were “serial killers” (Ronson). And this action, again, was perceived as proof…
