Select all the correct answers below (there may be more than one). Select one or more: a. The texture of a food gel may go from soft to hard depending on the number and strength of the bonds between the biopolymer molecules. O b. The appearance of a food gel depends on the size of the biopolymer building blocks (molecules or particles) compared to the wavelength of light.
