FNDH-400 EXAM WITH QUESTIONS AND
COMPLETE ANSWERS { GRADED A+}
Macronutrients - ✔✔Nutrients that are needed in larger amounts
Micronutrients: - ✔✔Nutrients needed in smaller amounts but as
equally important as macro-nut.
Name 4 examples of Macro-nuts - ✔✔Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids,
and water.
Name 2 micro-nuts - ✔✔Vitamins and minerals.
Carbohydrates - ✔✔It is made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
exs) table sugar, oatmeal, rice, etc.
Protein - ✔✔Made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Ex)
nuts, legumes, meat, milk, etc.
,Lipids - ✔✔Made of fatty acids, triglycerides, phospholipids, sterols,
carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Ex) oils, butter, and egg yolks.
Water - ✔✔Hydrogen and oxygen. It's also the only Macro-nut that
doesn't provide energy.
Vitamins - ✔✔It's an organic compound that is essential for normal
physiologic processes in the body.
Minerals - ✔✔Are elements that are essential for normal physiological
processes in the body.
What macronutrient contains nitrogen? - ✔✔Protein
Food energy measured? - ✔✔Kilocalories (Kcals) also known as
calories
Kilocalories (Kcals) also known as calories - ✔✔Kilocalories (Kcals)
also known as calories
How much energy (kcal/g) do the following produce? Carbohydrates,
Proteins, Alcohol (Not a nutrient), Lipids, Vitamins. Minerals, and
,Water? - ✔✔Carbohydrates: 4, Proteins, 4, Alcohol: 7, Lipids: 9,
Vitamins: 0, Minerals: 0, Waster: 0.
T/F Alcohol is considered a nutrient because it provides energy?: -
✔✔False, Alcohol is not a nutrient but it does provide 7 kcal/g.
Phytochemicals - ✔✔Are a compound found in plants that are believed
to provide health benefits beyond traditional sense. ex) lycopene in
tomatoes thought to potentially reduce prostate cancer.
Zoochemical - ✔✔They are compounds in animals that are said to
provide health benefits beyond the traditional nutrients that food
contains.
Functional Foods - ✔✔a food or ingredient which provides a health
benefit beyond the traditional nutrients (mac and micro) it contains
T/F Resveratrol, found in wine made from grapes is an example of
zoochemical?: - ✔✔False, Resveratrol, found in wine made from
grapes is an example of phytochemical
, T/F The scientific method results in the development of a new research
question and hypothesis: - ✔✔True
Cross Sectional Study - ✔✔It compares different populations at the
same point in time. It's as if you take a snapshot of 2 different pops. and
then compare them. ex) the French Paradox, or comparing diabetes rate
from all the states.
T/F The following description is an example of a cross sectional study:
A researcher compares fatty fish consumption in different states across
the US to determine if it is associated with CD? - ✔✔True
Case Control Study - ✔✔studies group cases (pop. diseased) VS.
control group (Non-diseased). This type of study is retrospective in that
they try to see if the differences in diet result in the desired disease.
Participants are matched by age, Sex, BMI, disease history, etc.
T/F The following description is an example of a case-control study:
FFQs are collected from individuals with and without CD to determine if
