Answer to Question 1

Cake flour muffins are least affected due to the low protein content in cake flour. Whole-wheat flour includes the entire grain, including its high protein content. However, the germ may reduce gluten formation. All-purpose flour is a mix of hard and soft wheat and will produce gluten when mixed.

Answer to Question 2

Desired characteristics of muffins include thin, uniformly golden brown, symmetrical top; medium-size crumb; and thin cell walls. Over mixing yields excess gluten formation and results in tunneling, peaked tops, and compromised quality.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
