Zorluk: OrtaLiteral Comprehension and Fact Retrieval

Read the passage below carefully and evaluate the statement that follows.

In traditional West African cassava processing, retting involves submerging peeled roots in standing water for three to five days to ferment the tissue and leach out toxic cyanogenic glucosides. Modern processing centers have adopted automated hydraulic presses that compress grated cassava mash immediately after harvesting. This mechanical method bypasses the multi-day fermentation soaking step entirely, reducing cyanogen levels through high-pressure fluid expression and cutting processing time from five days to four hours.

Statement: Traditional cassava retting eliminates cyanogenic compounds through high-pressure mechanical pressing without requiring water immersion.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

The statement is False.
The statement is false because the passage explicitly states that traditional retting involves submerging peeled cassava roots in standing water for three to five days. High-pressure mechanical pressing is described as a modern method that bypasses soaking entirely.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the claim made in the statement regarding traditional cassava retting.
The statement asserts that traditional retting relies on high-pressure mechanical pressing without water immersion.
Evaluating truth value requires isolating the core claim and checking it against text evidence.
2
Locate explicit details describing traditional retting within the passage.
The passage states that traditional retting involves submerging peeled roots in standing water for three to five days to ferment tissue and leach out toxins.
Literal comprehension requires retrieving exact factual details stated in the text.
3
Compare the statement's assertion with the passage facts.
Mechanical pressing is explicitly identified as a modern method that bypasses traditional soaking.
The statement directly contradicts explicit passage facts by misattributing modern mechanical methods to traditional retting.
