Match each grain part in List I with what it becomes in List II.
List I
A. Pericarp and seed coat
B. Starchy endosperm
C. Germ
D. Aleurone layer
List II
1. White flour or milled rice
2. Bran
3. A thin mineral-rich layer leaving with the bran
4. An oil-rich by-product
Select the correct match.
Answer: B
Correct answer: A-2, B-1, C-4, D-3
The grain divides into four fractions with four fates. The pericarp and seed coat become the bran. The starchy endosperm becomes white flour, or milled rice. The germ is oil-rich and is removed as a separate by-product. And the aleurone, a single mineral-rich cell layer just inside the seed coat, is the main source of the flour’s ash and leaves with the bran.
