1Imagine a scenario in which you recently attended a friend's birthday dinner. From the food served at the dinner, list three menu items that might have been present.Using the South University Online Library or the Internet, research on the menu items you selected. Based on your research, respond to the following:Identify the food groups that are represented in your menu items.Find out how many grams of protein, fat, and carbohydrate are present in a single serving of each item; then calculate the kilocalories that are present in each.Identify all the food groups that form a part of a balanced diet along with their sources.Assess the approximate amount of protein, fat, and carbohydrate that comprises a balanced diet in different body types. What are the effects of the consumption of each of these on the human body? Why?Discussion Question 2Kinetic energy causes disposition in the state of a substance. For instance, heat energy on a block of ice changes it first into water and finally into water vapor.Using the South University Online Library or the Internet, research on kinetic energy and how energy requirements change. Based on your research, respond to the following:Describe the process that ice on Mount Everest goes through when being heated from 10o Fahrenheit to 305o Kelvin. Explain how the energy requirements change at different steps of the heating curve. What are the energy transfers that happen in the ice on Mount Everest?How might temperature changes in the human body have an impact on human health? (Use an example to help illustrate your understanding). The human body goes through various temperature changes during a single day. Would you agree? Would this mean that the temperatures are not normal? Also, study the various temperature states that are commonly called, for example, fever

Fruit or Vegetable Content Discussion
- Please give your opinion and cited work,"Botanically, a fruit is a seed-bearing structure that develops from the ovary of a flowering plant, vegetables are all other plant parts, such as roots, leaves and stems. Peapods are one of the most common fruit that are mistakenly labelled as vegetables. I always thought a pea was a veggie, but when you think about the ways in which a fruit/veggie is labeled. We grow pea plants from a dried pea which is the seed, so they have to be a fruit. Olives, aubergines and butternut squash also belong to the fruit family. A tomato is always being debated as to fruit/veggie, but there are a lot of other fruits out there that are mistaken for veggies. Some that my kids often question is the cucumber, pumpkin, avocado, and the pepper. I had to think about the pepper for a while but botanically they are a fruit. I use pepper mainly for seasoning foods that I cook. I do not eat raw peppers. I am often confused by the rhubarb, I never had it, I was told it is not that great. But I always assume it was a fruit, because it is used in peas so often, but botanically it is a vegetable. Only recently I was reading an article written by the Mayo clinic about eating more fruits and veggies. From a culinary standpoint, vegetables are less sweet, and served as part of the main dish. Fruits are more sweet and tart and are most often served as a dessert or snack. “Both fruits and vegetables can be made into juice for a refreshing beverage. Some fruits are ""grains"" or ""nuts"" or ""seeds"" and are served accordingly.” http://www.livescience.com/ http://www.mayoclinic.org/

In this assignment, you will conduct a SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat) analysis for the type of beverage you have selected, and for your company overall. As you work on the assignment, consider why you have chosen one type of non-alcoholic beverage over another and the reasons for that choice. As you complete your SWOT analysis, be sure to include external factors such as industry / market trends and competition, and internal factors such as your capabilities or abilities to reach certain market segments.Write a three to five (3-5) page paper, in which you:Create your revised NAB company name and explain its significance.Develop your revised company’s Mission Statement and provide a rationale for its components.Hints: Use the Statement of Mission template on pp. 72-73 on the course textbook: Successful Business Plan to aid your development. Click here for help accessing a specific page number in your eBook.Extracting appropriate information from the NAB company portfolio, where applicable. You should fill in other required items in the template using your personal preferences.Describe the trends in the non-alcoholic beverage industry, especially the specific type of beverage category you have chosen. Justify at least three (3) reasons why you have chosen this type of non-alcoholic beverage.Hints: Research and outline beverage industry trends. Consider the size and growth rate of the industry overall and the specific beverage type you have chosen. Use the worksheet in the course text (p. 88 | Past and Future Growth of Your Industry) to help you project the future growth rate. Consider the use of industry associations and search engines to find reliable, recent data.Choose one (1) strategic position from the course text (pp. 142–143) that you believe is the best strategic position for your company. Explain the approach you will use to implement this strategic position in order to distinguish your beverage from other non-alcoholic beverages.Provide an overview of your company’s distribution channels. Explain the manner in which your product will reach end users. Provide a rationale for your chosen method.Hints: For example, will you sell your beverage in grocery stores, restaurants, or sports venues? If so, describe the types of resellers and distributors who will sell to resellers and fulfill their orders. If you are attempting to sell direct-to-consumers, such as online via a monthly subscription, how will you manage warehousing / fulfillment / shipping?Outline at least three (3) types of risks (including any regulatory risks) that your business faces. Describe your company’s plan to mitigate such risk.Hints: You may refer to the types of risk listed in the course text (pp. 148–149) as well as any risks not listed in the text. Regulation weighs more heavily on beverage and food businesses than many other types of companies, so be certain to consider any regulatory risks your type of beverage faces. For example, what kind of regulation and / or risks are you likely to face if you make health claims about your beverage?Develop a SWOT analysis for your NAB company using the SWOT matrix worksheet in the course text (p. 153 | SWOT: Strengths / Weaknesses / Opportunities / Threats)Hints: What are your company’s likely strengths? Have you chosen a beverage segment that is growing and lacks an entrenched competitor? Are you in a niche market that has great potential? What are the strengths that you and other team members bring to your company? Do you or other team members have previous experience in the food and beverage industry?Hints: What are your company’s likely weaknesses? Is the competition in your industry segment entrenched? Is your own management team inexperienced? Will it be challenging to actually produce your product and maintain quality?Hints: What are your company’s opportunities? Does your segment have more demand than supply? Have larger corporations stopped serving smaller or niche markets that you could enter? Is a new market emerging because of demographics, immigration, changing tastes?Hints: What are your company’s threats? Is there a clear market leader that will be hard and expensive to displace? Are downward-pricing pressures in the segment making profit margins slim? Are there little or no barriers-to-entry for new competitors; if you have a novel idea that succeeds, can the competition easily enter your market? If you have a global aspect to your company, do factors such as currency fluctuations, political instability, offshoring or outsourcing pose threats?Format your assignment according to these formatting requirements:Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; references must follow APA or school-specific format.
