Discussion
Consider the following statements about beet sugar.
1. It is extracted by diffusion rather than milling.
2. The sugar itself is chemically identical to cane sugar.
3. Beet processing produces bagasse as a fuel.
Answer: B
The first two are correct. The third is wrong, since beet has no such fibrous residue and beet factories must buy their fuel, which is one of the economic differences between the two crops. Beet pulp is sold as animal feed instead.
