Plant sterols and stanols are structurally similar to cholesterol and, as a result, plant sterols and stanols can interfere with cholesterol absorption True False

True

Which of the following statements about sphincters is FALSE? When a sphincter relaxes, the passageway closes to prevent movement of GI contents. Sphincters are important for controlling the flow of the contents through the GI tract. Sphincters are thickened regions of circular muscle. Sphincters are essential for normal digestion.

When a sphincter relaxes, the passageway closes to prevent movement of GI contents.

In the stomach, _______ participate in the chemical digestion of protein hydrochloric acid and pepsin gastric lipase and intrinsic factor mucus and cholocystokinin pancreatic amylase and intrinsic factor

hydrochloric acid and pepsin

Which of the following substance carries cholesterol away from tissues? HDL LDL Insoluble fiber Insulin

HDL

Dorothy is an 85-year-old woman who is having difficulty swallowing. Food seems to enter her stomach too slowly. Based on this information, Dorothy probably has a(n) condition characterized by loss of peristaltic functioning. excessive amount of secretory activity within her digestive tract. overgrowth of probiotics in her stomach. blockage caused by undigested fiber deposits in her jejunum.

condition characterized by loss of peristaltic functioning.

Your patient has hypothyroidism. His thyroid hormone levels have not responded well to medication. After speaking with your patient, you find that he consumes a high amount of broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage each day. What dietary advice do you have for him?

These foods contain goitrogens which inhibit iodide metabolism by the thyroid gland. This interferes with the production of thyroid hormones, so foods like broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage should be reduced in the diet or cut out completely.

True

Amino acids becoming muscle tissue is anabolism. True False

True

Digestion begins in the oral cavity (mouth) where teeth chew food via mastication, a form of mechanical digestion that prepares food for swallowing and chemical digestion. True False

True

direct vs indirect calorimetry.

Direct: Measures heat production as indication of metabolic rate Indirect: Measurement of oxygen consumption as an estimate of resting metabolic rate

Glycogen that is stored in muscle tissue can be broken down and sent to other places in the body. True False

False

Approximately how many grams of carbohydrate are in a sugar-sweetened beverage that supplies 200 kcals and contains no fiber, fat, protein, or alcohol? 50 grams carbohydrate 30 grams carbohydrate 43 grams carbohydrate 65 grams carbohydrate

50 grams carbohydrate

Explain the metabolic responses to an overnight fast.

As blood glucose levels fall during early part of an overnight fast, the pancreas secretes glucagon. Liver increases glycogenolysis. Blood glucose levels are maintained. When liver glycogen stores are depleted, glucagon stimulates gluconeogenesis in liver. Liver and muscle tissue mainly use fatty acids for fuel. Upon "breaking the fast" with a carbohydrate-rich meal, the insulin response promotes a shift from a catabolic to an anabolic state

Simple carbohydrates (monosaccharides and disaccharides)

Monosaccharides- Glucose (fruits/veggies) Fructose (fruit sugar- honey) Galactose (comp of lactose) Disaccharides- Maltose (malt sugar-starch digestion) Lactose (milk sugar) Sucrose (table sugar)

Aerobic metabolism is the production of ATP that occurs in the presence of ______________. Oxygen Lactate Hydrogen Pyruvate

Oxygen

The pancreas secretes enzymes important for digestion. Match the four following enzymes to their function. (pancreatic amylase, pancreatic lipase, trypsin & chemotrypsin) digests fat digests starch Partially digests protein

Pancreatic lipase- digests fat Pancreatic amylase- digests starch Trypsin & chemotrypsin- Partially digests protein

Who is most at risk for vitamin E deficiency? Choose all correct responses. Preterm infants Adults with Crohn's disease Adults with diabetes Adults with heart disease Adults with ulcerative colitis Pregnant women

Preterm infants Adults with Crohn's disease Adults with ulcerative colitis

What is the major difference between soluble and insoluble forms of fiber? Soluble fiber dissolves or swells in water, whereas insoluble fiber generally does not change in water Soluble fiber is in animal foods, whereas insoluble fiber is in plant foods Soluble fiber provides no health benefits to humans, whereas insoluble fiber reduces the risk of heart disease Soluble fiber can be digested by humans, whereas insoluble fiber cannot be digested

Soluble fiber dissolves or swells in water, whereas insoluble fiber generally does not change in water

For lunch today Quentin ate a turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread, a small bag of pretzels, and an apple. He also drank a 20-fluid ounce orange-flavored sports drink. Which component of his lunch would be considered a source of empty calories? Sports drink Turkey Whole wheat bread Pretzels
