Well I have my nutrition final tommorow and a couple of the practice problems provided are giving my grief, I was wondering if any of the folks here could give me any guidance or hints?
It is legal in the United States to directly and intentionally add to food, certain substances that:
a. Make some humans ill
b. inhibit mold and fungus
c. Make some food look and taste better
d. B, C
e. A,B,C
I know B and C are correct but I am not sure about A. I am guessing A is also correct because certain things, like artificial sweetners, do make some people sick but at the same time it seems like federal law wouldnt allow additives that are known to make people sick.
The primary function of food fat in the human is:
a. provides energy
b. regulates body processes
c. provides body tissue structure
I believe that answer is B, because carbohydrates are supposed to provide energy and I think C is related to protien. But I know fat is also used to provide energy so I am a bit confused.
Any ideas on these two questions? Any help would be greatly appreciated
