...Apples and Oranges Many of us have heard the saying, "That's like comparing apples and oranges." There is some truth to that statement. After looking at similarities and differences are not all that different of a fruit. Apples and oranges have a plethora of things in common as well as many things that differ. Apples and oranges have a great many things in common with each other. They both have the same approximate size and weight. Often both are used in juggling acts as well as used to take up space at the bottom of a Christmas stocking to make to sock look fuller of unhealthy items. In comparison they both have healthy benefits. The orange has lots of vitamins as well as the apple, although the apple does not get as much fan fair for the vitamins it does have. They have been used in the kitchen for everything from ice cream making to pie and pudding toppings and fillings. The cooking utility of these fruits are amazing, a chief can use both in a myriad of dessert dishes as well as used in the main course for added sweetening affects. They are often turned into juices and are a stable at the breakfast table. Both are considered to be a great basis off which many sauces and juice are made from: they often flavor other objects such as soda or chewing gum.

...Cazmir Leenheer Biology 09-08-’11 Grade11 IB Internal Assessment: Comparing Vitamin C of an Apple versus an Orange Cazmir Leenheer Biology 09-08-’11 Research Question: Is freshly squeezed apple (Malus domestica) juice or orange (Citrus sinensis) juice a richer and therefore healthier source of vitamin C (Ascorbic acid)? Aim: To measure the vitamin C content of 20 apples and 20 oranges and subsequently using a statistical Mann-Witney U test accordingly, concluding which fruit contains a richer source of vitamin C. Background Information: As the aim of this lab experiment is to establish whether raw apple juice is richer in vitamin C compared to raw orange juice and vice versa, the collected results will suggest which intake is the healthier option and how much of it you will need to sustain your optimal Vitamin C levels. Vitamin C is a essential nutrient needed for the growth and repair of tissues in all parts of your body. Vitamin C is also one of the key antioxidants, which are nutrients that block part of the damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are made when your body breaks down food or when a person is exposed to factors such as tobacco, smoke and radiation. Furthermore, a sufficient vitamin C level within the body can prevent the development of health conditions such as cancer, heart diseases, strokes and high blood pressure (Henrik, 2008). Raw citrus fruits are best known to be good sources of vitamin C, however others also include broccoli...

...Contrast: Apples And OrangesPeople often use the phrase “comparing apples and oranges” to explain the vast differences between two particular things. While thinking up a topic for a compare and contrast essay I decided that would be an interesting subject. Apples and Oranges are actually very similar in many ways, though they do have their differences as well. In this essay I will explain some of the differences and similarities between these two fruits. The first and probably most obvious similarity is that they are both fruits, and quite popular fruits at that. Both apples and oranges are tasty and are good sources of vitamin C. The FDA recognizes apples and oranges as a full serving of fruit on the food pyramid. Another similarity between these is that they both grow on trees and are generally a round spherical shape with seeds in the center. They are both often packed in lunches or as snacks because they are easy to handle and can last a long time in a refrigerator before going bad. In contrast, apples are usually red or green, and oranges are surprisingly an orange color. Also, apples are crisp and generally sweet, whereas oranges are juicy and sour or tangy. Most people will eat the outer layer on an apple, but the outer layer on an orange is usually peeled off before of it is eaten. Oranges contain calcium, which helps strengthen bones, while apples contain cancer fighting antioxidants called flavenoids. Apples can grow in...

...Setting the aftertax demand curve equal to supply gives Q* = 18, and P* = 59. (D) Tax revenue is the after-tax equilibrium quantity multiplied by the tax rate. Therefore, $5x(18) = $90. (E) The after-tax consumer price is now $64. The after-tax producer price is now $59. The before-tax price was $62. The economic incidence for consumers is $2x(18) = $36. For producers, it is $3x(18) = $54. (F) demand more elastic therefore the burden on consumers is less. 4. The per unit price of apples and oranges is initially $0.25. Sketch the budget line for Abigail, who plans to spend $6 on some combination of apples and oranges. Add an indifference curve assuming her optimal combination is 14 oranges and 10 apples. Suppose a $0.35 per unit tax is imposed on apples and assume the supply of apples is perfectly elastic (so the price per apple increases to $0.60). Show the effect on the budget line and add a new indifference curve assuming the optimal combination is now 12 oranges and 5 apples. (A) If a line can be drawn parallel to the first budget line, tangent to the second indifference curve, and intersecting both axes at 16, calculate the equivalent variation in units of...

...Excellent Customer Service at Your Restaurant As a restaurant owner, great customer service is essential to your success. How do you deliver excellent customer service at your restaurant? First, let’s define it: customer service is the assistance and advice you provide to your diners. Customer service is equal parts communication and genuine attention to your diners. (tweet this) When guests visit your restaurant, you want them to feel welcome. When you treat them with care and respect while providing an excellent meal, they’ll come back to your restaurant again and again. Satisfied customers are integral to your business model. According to a Harvard Business School study on Starbucks, customer satisfaction has a massive impact on your revenue. Regarding Starbucks, they found that the satisfied customer visits 4.3 times per month, spends $4.06 and is a customer for 4.4 years. They went on to find that thehighly satisfied customer visits 7.2 times per month, spends $4.42 and is a customer for 8.3 years. That’s great, but what happens when you have a dissatisfied customer? In a Customer Experience Report, researchers found that the #1 reason customers abandon a brand is due to poor quality and rude customer service. These items were cited 18% more often than slow or untimely service. Combined, these two studies describe the importance of excellent customer service. They suggest that great customer service can make or break your restaurant. So, in this blog post, we’re going...

...I. Introduction After all the financial problems it had in the 90’s, Apple Inc. grew up to a multi-billion corporation and is nowadays more than probably one of the most famous and one of the most popular companies in the world. Besides its best-known products such as the Ipod, the Mac and all the other consumer electronics and computer software products the company is selling, Apple recently entered the smartphone market with the so-called Iphone. First released in USA on June 29 2007, the Iphone got often sold out in the official Apple shops and by the end of 2007, the Iphone starting entering the European market (Ment, 2007). Since the start of the project until June 2009, 26.4 millions of Iphones have been sold worldwide. Available nowadays in nearly 90 countries, Apple’s main launching strategy consisted in selling the product through one single provider per country. The purpose of this paper is to analyze whether the tying of the Iphone to a unique provider is economically profitable. First, this paper introduces the nature of the tying contracts between Apple and a unique provider. Second, it discusses the economic aspects of the dilemna. Third, this paper examines the potential conflict that might arise between the competition council of the different countries and Apple’s strategy. Last, this paper finishes with a conclusion. II.

...downloaded, emails have been sent informing them of the added incentives that will be provided upon downloading the application. The sales promotion has been planned over a 5 week period. During this time, the apple and grapefruit juices have been advertised through the use of email/texts to current customers, while the orange and mandarin juices were advertised via the smartphone app. This variation in promoting methods helps to explore the impact of the Mobile App and unique use it has on sales performances during the 5 week campaign. The purpose of this report is to discuss the advantages of implementing a Mobile App at Hammer Wines and to discover the overall influence it may have on sales performances of fruit juices. Data Analysis Apple and grapefruit juices were advertised through the email/text marketing strategy, while the orange and mandarin juices were promoted via the new Mobile App. Over the 5 weeks, total sales figures for the apple juices have increased significantly. The selling performance of grapefruit juices has also increased, but compared to apple juice, grapefruit was not the popular choice. The email/text reminder sent in week 2 regarding the sale of apple and grapefruit juices, was not as successful as expected. In contrast, the two-for-one sale on orange and mandarin juices promoted via the smartphone app has proven itself very...

...Orange Cake Ingredients 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (180gm) 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 1 pinch of salt (for whipping egg whites) 1/2 cup butter/margarine, at room temperature (112gm) 3/4 cup sugar, grinded (150gm) 2 large eggs (or 3 small ones), at room temperature juice from 1 orange (one third of a cup) zest from 1 orange (about 1 tbsp.) 1 tsp. vanilla essence Simple Orange Glaze Ingredients 1 cup icing sugar 1/4 tsp. orange zest (optional) 4-5 tbsp. freshly squeezed orange juice Instructions First, separate the yolks from the egg whites. Set aside in different bowls. Grate the zest off the orange using a zester or the fine plane of your grater. Take care to ONLY grate the orange, not the white part (pith). The white part is very bitter and will change the taste of your cake, so keep turning the orange as you zest it. Preheat the oven to 170C. Grease and line an 8" round pan. Beat the butter and sugar until light and creamy. Add the egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Next add the orange juice, vanilla essence and orange zest and beat. Add the flour and beat it in. Set aside. Wash the whisk attachments and dry them well. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy, then add a pinch of salt to them and keep beating until the egg whites form stiff peaks. The salt helps to stabilize the egg whites. Add a third of the egg whites into the cake batter and stir it in with a spatula or wooden spoon...

...plant. This project will reveal how different liquids affect the growth of plants. Various research has been done that will support the problem of what liquid can stimulate the growth of a plant more successfully. By measuring each plant after watering them with the six liquids, the liquid that allows the plants’ growth will result in an increase in length. Research Question What are the effects of skim milk, water, Vitamin Water (orange gatorade), coffee (Yuban), Minute Maid 100% Apple Juice on pea seeds? Research Predictions Coffee will do the best because of all the protein and nutrients in it. Hypothesis: If the same type of seeds are planted in a controlled setting and different types of liquids are used to “water” the seeds, then the liquids that have the right nutrients for the plants will cause the seeds to grow. Experimental Design: The independent variables - The 5 liquids chosen were: •Skim Milk •water •Vitamin Water (Orange Gatorade) •Black Coffee (Yuban) •Minute Maid 100% Apple Juice The controlled variables in the experiment were the bean seeds, the soil, the pots, and the amount of liquids used at each “watering.” One pot was watered with water as a control knowing how the seed should grow. Each pot received the same amount of sun each day and remained at the same temperature. Dependent Variable: How much the plant grows in...
