Answer:

hope this helps mark me brianliest

Explanation:

Technology ("science of craft", from Greek τέχνη, techne, "art, skill, cunning of hand"; and -λογία, -logia[2]) is the sum of any techniques, skills, methods, and processes used in the production of goods or services or in the accomplishment of objectives, such as scientific investigation. Technology can be the knowledge of techniques, processes, and the like, or it can be embedded in machines to allow for operation without detailed knowledge of their workings. Systems (e.g. machines) applying technology by taking an input, changing it according to the system's use, and then producing an outcome are referred to as technology systems or technological systems.

A steam turbine with the case opened. Such turbines produce most of the electricity used today. Electricity consumption and living standards are highly correlated.[1]

The simplest form of technology is the development and use of basic tools. The prehistoric invention of shaped stone tools followed by the discovery of how to control fire increased sources of food. The later Neolithic Revolution extended this, and quadrupled the sustenance available from a territory. The invention of the wheel helped humans to travel in and control their environment.

Read the passage.

Would you rather eat a whole food or a processed food? Which kind of food is healthier for you? Whole foods include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, dairy, eggs, meat, and fish. Whole foods are products of nature. They come to consumers in their natural state such as an apple or a banana. Processed foods are the product of a manufacturing plant. They come to consumers in different shapes and flavors such as sweetened applesauce in a squeeze pouch. Cereals, white bread, sandwich meat, cookies, frozen meals, as well as chips and crackers are all processed foods.

Whole foods are healthier than processed foods. When foods are processed, they lose many of their nutrients and health benefits. Whole foods are unchanged. Nothing is added or taken away to change the whole food's nutrients. Processed foods have been changed using chemicals. They are made from processed ingredients and artificial substances. Food loses many nutrients during processing, so chemically formed nutrients are added. These foods are often high in sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats and low in nutritional value.

Processed foods can have serious effects on our health. They can cause diabetes and heart disease. They are even cited as a cause of obesity. Eating more processed foods means getting less real vitamins, minerals, fiber, antioxidants, and nutrients. We need these elements, which are found in whole foods, to be healthy. Diets high in fiber promote healthy digestion. While diets high in antioxidants can help prevent cancer, diets high in vitamins and minerals can help our minds and bodies stay healthy and strong.

Choose whole foods to choose health. If it comes in a bag or a box, it is probably processed, which means it is lacking the important nutrients that our bodies need.

Which detail is too minor to be included in a summary of this article?

A. Processed foods have serious effects on our health.
B. Food loses many nutrients during processing.
C. Diets high in fiber promote healthy digestion.
D. They can cause diabetes and heart disease.

He looked out the window at the vast emptiness. He watched the rise and fall of a telephone wire. In his mind he could hear his father's gruff voice softly singing to him.

"If only, if only," the woodpecker sighs,
"The bark on the tree was just a little bit softer.
"While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely,
He cries to the moo--oo--oon,"
If only, if only."

It was a song his father used to sing to him. The melody was sweet and sad, but Stanley's favorite part was when his father would howl the word "moon."
