Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

The peaches that floated to the top were exposed to oxygen at the top of the package. They underwent enzymatic browning. It would have been partially prevented if she had just put crumpled waxed paper on top to push the peaches down under the syrup. But the best way to prevent the browning was to add ascorbic acid to the syrup. The ascorbic acid would have been acidic enough to disrupt the enzymatic action, and also would have functioned as an antioxidant, preventing contact with oxygen.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
