SCENARIO A
Anthropologists have been studying the role of soybean curd and related
products in the culture of Hong Kong. The researchers interview people
about how frequently they eat soybean products, where they eat them (at
home or in restaurants), and during what time of day they eat them. The
researchers also ask people about how they prepare soybean products,
where they obtain soybean products, and any beliefs they might have about
soybean products (such as their nutritional value). The data are used to
assess the role of soybean products in the culture. The researchers are also
considering how their findings relate to global soybean consumption
patterns.

How does this genetic modification affect the consumer and the diet of individuals in developing countries? A. Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes are more likely to freeze on the vine before becoming ripe. This freezing process locks in the minerals and beneficial nutrients so that the tomato can be transported without losing its nutritional benefit. B. Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes are more likely to have a shorter shelf life and have to be eaten quicker. C. Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes have a longer shelf life, so they don't rot as quickly. The tomatoes survive delivery to the consumer and provide nutritional value to more people. D. Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes can stay on the vine longer to receive nutrients.
