how to calculate total # of kcals

1. carbs x 4 kcal/gram 2.protein x 4 kcal/gram 3. fat x 9 kcal/gram add total = calories

Rank the following steps of the scientific method in order, beginning with the first step at the top.

1.observe 2.develop a question 3.test the question 4.analyze 5.form conclusions 6.share the results

which of the following is likely to contain phytochemicals?

1/2 cup raw broccolli

control

A participant or animal who does not receive the treatment being studied is a member of the _____ group.

experiment

A researcher is interested in investigating whether calcium can be absorbed as well in children with dairy allergies. To test this scientific question, the researcher should conduct a(n) _____.

Metabolism

All of the chemical reactions that occur within an organism

food energy

Carbs: 4 kcal/g Protein: 4 kcal/g Fat: 9 kcal/g Alcohol: 7 kcal/g

Phytochemicals

Chemicals in plant-based foods that are not nutrients but that have effects on the body.

which of the following substances is a nutrient that provides energy?

Glucose

what is a food that is energy dense & nutrient dense?

NUTS, example- almonds

Proteins

Nutrients the body uses to build and maintain its cells and tissues. Source of energy

John likes to make oatmeal cookies. Each oatmeal cookie supplies about 105 kcal, 5 g fat, 13 g carbohydrate, and 2 g protein. Estimate the approximate percentages of total kilocalories in a cookie that are contributed by fat (yellow), carbohydrate (blue), and protein (orange) and fill in the pie chart according to your calculations. (Rounding the figures may be necessary to obtain 100%.) (To enter the percentages, click on the pencil icon in the upper left corner of each label, type in the number (do not include the percentage sign), click on the save icon in the upper left corner and drag the label to the appropriate place on the pie chart.)

There are about 9 kcal/g of fat, 4 kcal/g of carbohydrate, and 4 kcal/g of protein. Each cookie contains about 5 g fat, so multiply 5 g by 9 kcal/g to obtain the number of "fat kilocalories" (45 kcal). Each cookie has about 13 g carbohydrate, so multiply 13 g by 4 kcal/g to obtain the number of "carbohydrate kilocalories" (52 kcal). Each cookie contains about 2 g protein, so multiply 2 g by 4 kcal/g to obtain the number of "protein kilocalories" (8 kcal). To determine the approximate percentage of energy supplied by fat, divide the number of kcal from fat (45 kcal) by the total number of kcal in each cookie (105 kcal), move the decimal point two places to the right, and replace the decimal point with a percent symbol (approximately 43%). Follow the same procedures to determine the approximate percentages of energy supplied by carbohydrate and protein, except use 52÷105 for carbohydrate and 8÷105 for protein. Carbohydrate contributes about 50% and protein contributes about 7% of the calories in each cookie.
