  • Q #1: Egg Replacements in Baking Eggs are an important staple of many baking recipes. They serve local functions such as binding leavening and providing moisture to the final product. However, some people are unable to consume eggs for a variety of reasons if you are one of these people, baking can seem daunting Fortunately, there are several substitutions that will allow you to continue enjoying your delicious treats without using eggs. Two popular egg replacements are applesauce and banana. These things work well enough to provide moisture to your dessert, but they are suboptimal replacements overall because providing moisture is only one function of the egg. When using applesauce or banana in place of eggs you may find that your baked goods crumble or do not rise properly. Luckily, there are other ways to achieve binding and leaving effects that are more similar to those of eggs, Eggs help emulsify the disparate ingredients of your recipe into one homogeneous batter or dough. To achieve this is most effective something with protein or fat that will bind to the starch. One option is a quarter cup of plain yogurt, sour cream, or butter for each egg- either dairy or non-dairy will work just fine. Another option is ground flax or chia seeds. For each egg, combine 1 tablespoon of ground seeds with 3 tablespoons of warm water and leave the mixture to rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes before using. Either of these options will effectively bind your ingredients. However, if you are baking something that needs to rise, like a cake, you may want to give your dessert a little additional help. In this case, mix 1 tablespoon of baking soda with 1 tablespoon of neutral-flavored vinegar, such as white or apple cider, and add the mixture alongside the other wet ingredients.   Which of the following would be a relevant piece of data to support the claim that there are several substitutions for eggs in baking?

    A. A table depicting the ratio of dry to most ingredients in baking

    B. An image depicting a microscopic view of yogurt culture

    C. An infographic depicting the properties of the ingredients used in baking

    D. A graph depicting the rise of egg allergies over time

    Answer Explanation

    C. An infographic could visually illustrate the various ingredients that can be used as egg substitutes and their properties, helping to support the claim.

  • Q #3: Alice was not scared. Not at all. Maybe a lele bit. But she was determined to confront the ghost in her house. Alice lived in a farmhouse but in 1921. All of the floors and doors were original the doors even had skeleton key locks. But by far the most terrifying part of the house was the basement. She kept that door locked and ignored the thum crashes, and cries that came from below the house. What made Alice determined to confront the ghost today was the especially loud crash the previous night. She'd gotten no sleep, convinced the ghost was going to break through the door and do something horrible. What she was sure, but the ghost would do something Alice had seen the ghost, but what he could be making loud noise in an old house? The one time she had been down in the basement was aher buying the house unseen. Once she saw the shelves with old glass jars, she was a de put off. But what made her keep the door shut and locked was the abrupt end of the concrete floor halfway across the room Because nothing good ever happened in a basement with a diet for Alice had seen enough horror movies to know that Ace stared at the basement door, trying to gather enough confidence to open it and march down the stairs like she owned the place. Because she did-or she would, once she finished paying her morgage in 30 years. Alice took a deep breath and yanked the door open. She marched down the stairs, only to stop abruptly at the bottom. Because she was face to face with not a ghost at all it was a calice-cat one who looked utterly unimpressed by her brave journey into the basement   Which of the following pieces of evidence from the text supports the prediction that Alice finally entered the basement because she was frustrated?

    C. Because nothing good ever happened in a basement with a dirt floor

    D. She kept that door locked and ignored the thumps ashes, and ores that came from below the house.

    Answer Explanation

The piece of evidence from the text that supports the prediction that Alice finally entered the basement because she was frustrated is "The one time she had been down in the basement was after buying the house unseen." This suggests that Alice had been avoiding the basement since she bought the house, likely out of fear. Her frustration and determination might have built up over time, leading her to finally enter the basement.
