Why the popcorn pops y nor NnuI
understood, says a recent bulIee1o q
the agricultural department, ToeDeeiy
II was suggested that the popping -.
suited from the expansion Of Oh n -
kernel on being heated. but more Prob
ably 1t is due to the expansion oe
moisture contained In the starch cells.
This moisture expands. when heated.
with sufficient force to cause IN ex-
pIosion Of the cells. and Tie kernel
turns completely inside out. enveioping
the embryo and hun. Probably the ex-
pansion Of the air within the seed
coat also plays some part in tho pro-
