A8 Ken SaladinTextbookauthor and professor emeritus Apr 23 When a fruit is immature, in many cases it’s green. Frugivorous(fruit-eating) animals know that as a sign that it will not be very appetizing,it may even be bitter or repugnant to eat, and it will not give a goodnutritional reward for eating it. As their seeds mature, fruits change to colors more attractive tofrugivores—red, yellow, blue, etc.—and they load up with nutritionalrewards, especially sugars that will be agreeable to the tongue and energy-richto the body. The yellowcolor comes from pigments common in vegetables, the carotenoids, which showthrough as the fruit ripens and its green chlorophyll degrades enough for theyellow to show through. You could think of a banana’s yellow color as an “I’m ready and I’myummy” signal, an enticement to eat it. Yet in the case of bananas, you mustrealize that wildbananas are nothing like the highly selected, cultivated, large yellow bananaswe get from the grocery store now. Indeed these bananas are seedlessand propagated only asexually, so there is no seed-dispersal benefit for thebanana to be eaten. So wemight just as well think of the carotenoid-rich yellow as a trait thathorticulturists have bred into bananas for marketing purposes—that statebetween green and brown when the banana is tastiest. Here are some wild-type bananas—not exactly your grocer’splantation-grown Chiquitas. Q9 What difficulties doesa person face if they have never married in their entire life?

When you are ill andlonely at home, life can be tough. I don't think there is any major issue apartfrom loneliness, particularly at advanced age.
