Which of the following statements best describes the role of dietary fiber in reducing the risk of developing diseases?

Soluble fibers slow the digestion and release of glucose preventing a spike in blood glucose following a meal. This increase in transit time may improve long-term control of diabetes. Viscous, soluble fibers slow the release of food from the stomach and, therefore, slow down the absorption of glucose. This can help individuals with diabetes to control their blood glucose levels.

Which of the following no-calorie alternative sweeteners is best used as a replacement for sugar in baked goods? aspartame Splenda Mannitol saccharin

Splenda is not digested or absorbed and is heat stable, making it a good replacement for baked goods.

Sugar causes hyperactivity in children.

__________ is observed in chronic drinkers as their liver breaks down alcohol more efficiently. Tolerance Threshold Resistance Sensitivity

TOLERANCE

Despite popular diet book claims that carbohydrates are "fattening" and should be avoided, a Recommended Dietary Allowance for this important macronutrient has been established by the Institute of Medicine. Fill in the blank about the dietary recommendations for carbohydrates. The Recommended Dietary Allowance for adults age 19 and over for carbohydrates is __________.

The RDA for carbohydrates, based on the amount of glucose the brain uses, is 130 g.

Trace the digestion of carbohydrates through the gastrointestinal tract by arranging the steps of chemical digestion of a piece of bread beginning when you take your first bite.

1. Salivary amylase breaks down amylose and amylopectin in the bread into smaller chains. 2. Carbohydrate-digesting enzymes are inactivated by hydrochloric acid. 3. Pancreatic amylase breaks down amylose and amylopectin into the disaccharide maltose. 4.Dissacharides are digested by the brush border enzymes sucrase, maltase, and lactase to yield monosaccharides. 5.Dietary fiber from the bread passes into the large intestine to be eliminated.

Diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by hyperglycemia (high blood glucose). Hypoglycemia is when blood glucose falls below the normal range. Choose the correct statement about diabetes or hypoglycemia.

Type 2 diabetes is a progressive disorder in which body cells become less responsive to insulin. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the body does not produce enough insulin. In type 2 diabetes, which affects 90%% to 95%% of people with diabetes, insulin is produced, but the body is resistant to it. If not well controlled, diabetes increases the risk for complications such as cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, neuropathy, and lower leg amputations.

Type 2 diabetes is associated with obesity among those over 45 years of age.

How is digestion altered in individuals who have been diagnosed with lactose intolerance?

Undigested lactose draws water into the gastrointestinal tract, causing diarrhea and cramping.Symptoms like diarrhea are caused by lactose drawing water into the digestive tract. Understanding the causes and symptoms of lactose intolerance may help those with the disorder to manage it.

Eating foods with fat, protein, and fiber can help slow alcohol absorption.

The most abundant form of carbohydrate found in plants is __________. glucose glycogen galactose lactose

GLUCOSE

Which of the following statements correctly describes the process of carbohydrate absorption?

Glucose and galactose are absorbed into the enterocytes by active transport while frustose is absorbed by facillitated diffusion.

Simple carbohydrates, also referred to as sugars, include monosaccharides and disaccharides. Monosaccharides consist of a single sugar molecule, and disaccharides consist of two molecules of sugar joined together. Complex carbohydrates are larger molecules with many sugar molecules. Choose the correct statement about simple or complex carbohydrates.

Glucose, fructose, and galactose each contain 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms, and 6 oxygen atoms.

Pictured below are four different carbohydrate chemical structures. Match each structure with the type of carbohydrate it best represents.

Good work. Carbohydrates come in different forms. There is a connection between carbohydrate structure and function. Knowing the chemical structure of carbohydrates can help us understand their functions. The different types of carbohydrates in foods cause different reactions. For example, heating the disaccharide sucrose leads to syrup production, whereas heating starchy foods frequently results in brown coloration and intense flavors, as in baked breads and dark beer.

The primary goal of carbohydrate digestion is to break down polysaccharides and disaccharides into monosaccharides, which can then be absorbed into the bloodstream. From the list below, choose all the correct statements about carbohydrate digestion and absorption.

In the mouth, the enzyme known as salivary amylase begins the process of carbohydrate digestion. Because fructose is the most slowly absorbed of all the monosaccharides, ingestion of fructose can lead to diarrhea. The enzymes maltase, sucrase, and lactase digest disaccharides into monosaccharides.

The alpha bonds of carbohydrates are hydrolyzed during digestion by specific enzymes. Lactose contains a beta bond, which is broken by lactase. Most carbohydrates that contain beta bonds are not digestible because humans lack the enzyme needed to hydrolyze the bond. Which of the following carbohydrates contain alpha bonds that are digestible by humans? View Available Hint(s)

amylose and amylopectin contain alpha bonds therefore CAN BE DIGESTABLE BY HUMANS

Foods naturally contain more than one type of carbohydrate, but you are to identify the type of carbohydrate that is found in the highest amount. For example, a medium banana has the following amounts of each of the listed types of carbohydrates: Monosaccharides Fructose = 6 g Glucose = 6 g Galactose = 0 g Disaccharides Sucrose = 3 g Lactose = 0 g Maltose = 0 g Polysaccharides Starch = 6 g Fiber = 3 g From these values, it can be concluded that the most significant type of carbohydrate in a banana is monosaccharide. This activity has you identify the most significant type of carbohydrate in common foods. Match the food with the one type of carbohydrate that is found in the highest amount in that food. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.
