Sturm (wine)
Federweisser (also Federweißer) is an alcoholic beverage commonly made in continental Europe. It is the product of fermented freshly pressed grape juice, known as must. The term ''Federweisser'' in principle includes all stages of fermentation, from must to finished wine. It is typically 9% alcohol by volume, although versions of up to 13.5% alcohol by volume are not uncommon. In contrast to all other alcoholic beverages, the alcohol content stated on a bottle of Federweisser is inconclusive, and presents an uppermost limit, not the actual content at any given time. Across Europe, it is known as ''Suser'', ''Sauser'', ''Neuer Süßer'' ('sweet' or 'new sweet'), or ''Junger Wein'' ('young wine') in Southwest Germany, Switzerland and South Tyrol, ''Fiederwäissen'' in Luxembourg, ''Sturm'' ('storm') in Austria, ''Federweißer'' in Bavaria, ''Neuer Wein'' ('new wine') in the Palatinate, ''Federweißer'' in Franconia, ''burčiak'' in Slovakia, ''burčák'' in Czech Republic, or ...

Declension
In linguistics, declension (verb: ''to decline'') is the changing of the form of a word, generally to express its syntactic function in the sentence by way of an inflection. Declension may apply to nouns, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, and determiners. It serves to indicate grammatical number, number (e.g. singular, dual, plural), grammatical case, case (e.g. nominative case, nominative, accusative case, accusative, genitive case, genitive, or dative case, dative), grammatical gender, gender (e.g. masculine, feminine, or neuter), and a number of other grammatical categories.

Yeast
Yeasts are eukaryotic, single-celled microorganisms classified as members of the fungus kingdom (biology), kingdom. The first yeast originated hundreds of millions of years ago, and at least 1,500 species are currently recognized. They are estimated to constitute 1% of all described fungal species. Some yeast species have the ability to develop multicellular characteristics by forming strings of connected budding cells known as pseudohyphae or false hyphae, or quickly evolve into a Multicellular organism, multicellular cluster with specialised Organelle, cell organelles function. Yeast sizes vary greatly, depending on species and environment, typically measuring 3–4 micrometre, μm in diameter, although some yeasts can grow to 40 μm in size. Most yeasts reproduce asexual reproduction, asexually by mitosis, and many do so by the asymmetric division process known as budding. With their single-celled growth habit, yeasts can be contrasted with Mold (fungus), molds, wh ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
