Also without knowing someone could bump the table, move the Petri dish or in some way caused the liquid on the penny to spill before it

Celiac’s disease is a disease that damages the small intestine and can cause problems with the process of digesting nutrients. One of the major issues with this is that when gluten, a protein found in wheat, and also in most foods, medicines and vitamins, is consumed, it triggers an attack on the smaller intestines. This creates a much harder standard of living for those diagnosed with Celiac’s. Gluten is important in bread for numerous reasons. It helps the bread contain the gases produced during fermentation to allow it to rise before baked.

Colony Collapse Disorder The colony collapse disorder of honeybees has become a very problematic issue. The Natural Resources Defense Council states that nearly that nearly one-third of all honeybee colonies in the country have vanished, putting many fruits and vegetables at risk. A controversial type of pesticide called neonicotinoids has become a prime suspect in this phenomenon, as it affects bees’ sense of direction and making it hard for them to find home. In order to prevent this disaster from continuously occurring, neonicotinoids should be banned or used more sparingly and replaced with an alternative type of pesticide. Author Brandon Keim, author of article “Controversial Pesticide Linked to Bee Collapse” states neonicotinoids began to be used in the mid-1990s as less-toxic alternatives to human-damaging pesticides.
