Answer 1

WHEAT : Size of wheat depends on the variety. Wheat usually reaches 2 to 4 feet in height.Wheat develops head on a top of the stem which contains around 50 kernels. Color of the kernel depends on the variety of wheat. It can be red, blue, purple, brown or white.All types of wheat can be divided in two major groups: spring and winter wheat. Spring wheat is planted during the spring and harvested during the summer. Winter wheat is planted at autumn and harvested during the spring.Wheat is ready for harvest when it becomes golden in color and completely dried out (dead).Machine (called combine) removes the heads from the stem and separates kernels from the rest of the (inedible) plant material.One pound of wheat contains 17 000 kernels. Kernels harvested from one acre of wheat can be turned into 1500 loaves of bread.Kernel consists of three parts: bran (outer layer), endosperm (nutritive matter used for development of embryo) and germ (embryo). Whole wheat flour is produced by grinding of whole kernels (it contains all three parts of the kernel). Production of white flour requires removal of the bran and germ. This type of flour contains less minerals, vitamins and fibers compared to the whole wheat flour.Wheat is rich source of proteins, sugar (in the form of starch), vitamins of the B group and minerals such as iron, manganese, magnesium and zinc.Wheat is used for the production of bread, pasta, cookies, breakfast cereals and fermented beverages.
