3. Criteria and constraints help guide decision-making as people work to
extract useful materials from pomace. Which option is an example of
how a criterion for success is applied in this situation?
-The criterion of available resources favors the use of organic solvents
-The criterion of minimizing chemical waste favors the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water✅?
-The criterion of minimizing chemical waste favors the use of organic solvents.
-The criterion of available resources favors the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water
To determine which option is an example of how a criterion for success is applied in the situation of extracting useful materials from pomace, we need to understand what criteria and constraints are and how they guide decision-making.
Criteria are standards or principles that are used to evaluate or judge a situation or decision. They help establish goals or benchmarks for success. Constraints, on the other hand, are limitations or restrictions that need to be considered when making decisions.
In this situation, the criteria and constraints relate to the extraction of useful materials from pomace. The question asks for an example of how a criterion for success is applied.
Option 1: "The criterion of available resources favors the use of organic solvents"
This option states that the availability of resources favors the use of organic solvents. While it is relevant to consider available resources, it does not explicitly talk about success or an outcome that would meet the criteria. It only mentions a preference based on resources.
Option 2: "The criterion of minimizing chemical waste favors the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water"
This option states that the criterion of minimizing chemical waste favors the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water. It directly aligns the criterion of minimizing chemical waste with the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water. It suggests that this choice would lead to success in terms of reducing chemical waste, which meets the criteria for success. Therefore, this option is an example of how a criterion for success is applied in this situation.
Option 3: "The criterion of minimizing chemical waste favors the use of organic solvents"
This option states that the criterion of minimizing chemical waste favors the use of organic solvents. This is contradictory and does not align with common understanding because organic solvents are typically associated with chemical waste. Therefore, this option does not align with the stated criterion for success.
Option 4: "The criterion of available resources favors the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water"
This option states that the criterion of available resources favors the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water. While it considers available resources, it does not mention any success criteria. It only describes a preference based on available resources.
Based on the analysis above, the correct option that exemplifies how a criterion for success is applied in this situation is option 2: "The criterion of minimizing chemical waste favors the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water." This option directly connects the criterion of minimizing chemical waste to the use of high-temperature, high-pressure water as a means of achieving success in the extraction process.
