Give an example of how environment affects taste.

Answer

The human body relies a lot on its senses to comprehend the world and the environment around it. One such sense that is vital to us is taste. Taste is a sense that depends on chemicals dissolved in the air, and other substances, to comprehend what is around us. Once our sense of taste captures a chemical presence it will rely information to the brain, who will form a response accordingly.

An example of how taste works is when we take oral medication. When the components dissolve on our tongue, our nerve endinds fire information towards the brain letting it know that the taste is not good, and responses will come along.

In this way, also, environment plays a very important role, because an environment that is plagued with chemical components in it may confuse the messages sent to the brain, and give the wrond impression. So for example, if you are at a dinner, and you take a sip of water from the glass, but this water does not taste good, or if the air is charged with smells you do not like and you can almost taste those, then you might lose your desire to eat, or drink. Also, the brain will store that as memories, so that in future, you will associate things. In the future, then, you may not wish to drink water again because you remember that taste from before and your reactions to it.

This is just one of the many examples that show how environment can affect the sense of taste.

marginal cost is a microeconomic measure that us to evaluate the extent to which the level of production of a good is sustainable in accounting, that is, to how many quantities the company plans to profit from the production of the good.

the concept of marginal cost is simple, it means the cost of producing one more item. for example, in the case of pies, the marginal cost is the cost of producing one more pie than those that have already been produced.

it is important to understand that productive activity influences marginal cost. the marginal cost of some goods can be very high, while others may be insignificant. for example, the marginal cost of producing an extra plane is very high. already the marginal cost of a water company to provide 1l more water is derisory.

in the case of pies, the cost involves the inputs, the labor and the fixed cost, which involves the fixed space of the bakery. the level of production initially has the marginal cost decreasing because there is space and manpower available. however, to produce more you have to hire more workers and buy more inputs. if physical space is limited, workers will conflict with places, inputs and their productivity will decrease, meaning there is an optimum point of production for each level of space and manpower. from this point on, the productivity of the workers will be getting smaller because of lack of space, so that the marginal cost of producing one more pie will be increasing. so, although you have not posted the chart, but if you have the answer, you can see that my explanation goes according to the marginal cost curve that will increase from the 4th pie, answer (c).
