body and its functions
disease - ✔✔abnormal condition affecting the health of an organism with specific
signs/symptoms
macronutrients - ✔✔nutrients needed in large amounts; carbs, lipids, and proteins
carbohydrates - ✔✔critical for energy (glucose), building blocks, functionality of
nervous system, heart, and kidneys; 4kcals per 1g; 45%-65% daily
lipids - ✔✔provide energy, growth/maintenance, support, and regulation of body
processes (triglycerides, phospholipids, sterols); 9kcals per 1g

composed of amino acids (H, C, O, & N); 4kcals per 1g; 10%-35% daily
, vitamins/minerals - ✔✔hormones, antioxidants, or co-enzymes; micronutrients;
DON'T PROVIDE ENERGY
enzymes - ✔✔proteins that catalyze chemical reactions; produce energy, digest
nutrients, build macromolecules
vitamins - ✔✔make red blood cells, synthesize bone tissue, functionality of
vision, nervous/immune system; helps prevent disease
minerals - ✔✔enzyme function, fluid balance, build bone tissue, synthesize
hormones, transmit nerve impulses
water - ✔✔medium for all chemical reactions; 60% of body weight
essential nutrient - ✔✔necessary for body; not produced naturally
scientific method - ✔✔process for studying the world (scientific consensus)
observational research - ✔✔don't change the condition of subjects; can only show
correlation
experimental research - ✔✔change the condition of subjects; may show causation
cross-sectional study - ✔✔"snapshot" of a specific group
