Cornstarch -- Cornstarch is actually a flour. It is the endosperm of corn kernels that has been dried and ground. Corn starch is used as a thickening agent in soups and liquid-based foods, such as sauces, gravies and custard. It is sometimes preferred over flour because it forms a translucent mixture, rather than an opaque one.
A basketball game (NBA) is technically only 48 minutes. However, with half-time, timeouts, fouls, and close games, a basketball game is actually around 2 1/2 hours. <br /><br /> The game is divided into 4 quarters, each 12 minutes long. Should the score be tied at the end of the fourth quarter, the game will go into a 5 minute overtime period.
Best Answer: There are 4 quarters to a game, each quarter is 15 minutes of actual playing time. Therefore there will be 60 minutes of actual playing time, but due to commercials, timeouts, instant replay halftime, the games usually last 3 - 4 hours.0 minutes 4 quarters per game * 15 minutes per quarter = 60 minutes per game. That is how long the GAME is. If you want to know how long it takes the game to be played from opening kickoff till the last play is completed, that is a different question with a lot of different answers, because every NFL game is different.
