Which nutrient provides energy and provides bulk in the diet?
Carbohydrates are the nutrient that provides energy for the body. Fiber is the nutrient that provides bulk in the diet and supports healthy digestion.
Why do peanuts carry energy?
Peanuts contain high levels of unsaturated fats, protein, and carbohydrates, all of which are sources of energy for the body when consumed. The fats in peanuts provide a concentrated form of energy, while the protein and carbohydrates are converted into energy during digestion and metabolism.
How much energy does each bean represent?
Each bean typically contains about 3-4 calories, depending on the type of bean. This provides the body with energy from carbohydrates, protein, and fiber.
Why is human hair strong?
Human hair is strong due to its structure, which consists of a protein called keratin. This protein forms a network of fibers that provides strength and elasticity to the hair shaft. Additionally, the outer layer of the hair, known as the cuticle, helps protect the inner layers and contributes to the overall strength of the hair.
What cell type can withstand friction and tension?
Skin cells, specifically keratinocytes, are designed to withstand friction and tension. These cells are found in the outer layer of the skin and produce a tough protein called keratin, which provides strength and resilience to the skin.
How many grams of nitrogen are contained in a 2500-kcalorie diet that provides 15 percent of the energy as protein?
15 grams of Nitrogen are contained in a 2500 kcalorie diet that provides 15 percent of the energy as a protein.
During the first few days of a fast what energy source provides about 90 percent of the glucose needed to fuel the body?
Protein
How many grams of nitrogen are in a gram of protein?
protein is 16% nitrogen so the answer would be 0.16g of nitrogen per gram of protein
If a diet provides a total of 2200 kilo-calories of which 40 percent of the energy is from fat and 20 percent from protein how many grams of carbohydrate are contained in the diet?
800X.50= 400kcals of carbs, 800X.20= 160kcals of protein, 800-560=240kcals of fat fat has 9kcals per gram, so 240/9= around 27 grams of fat
Why you do proximate analysis?
We do proximate analysis of the matter to know the nitrogen (protein), oil (fat), mineral, ash content etc to have an idea about the energy contained in that matter.
Which parts of the human body that contain nitrogen?
Nitrogen is present in various parts of the human body including amino acids which are the building blocks of proteins, nucleic acids in DNA and RNA, and in molecules such as urea and creatinine that are involved in waste excretion through urine.
What is nitrogen a component of?
Nitrogen is a component of a protein.
What is nitrogen a component?
Nitrogen is a component of a protein.
Does protein contain nitrogen?
yesEvery protein should contain Nitrogen.To be a protein it should contain -NH2 gruop
What are the protein in building structures contained in all cells?
Ribosomes are the protein-building structures contained in all cells.Ribosomes
Identify one plant which is rich in protein?
Leguminous plants are rich in protein for the following reason. Leguminous plants have nodules on their roots containing bacteria which can fix nitrogen contained in the air in the soil. This nitrogen becomes available to the plant, which uses the nitrogen as an essential part of the proteins of its cells. Other types of plant cannot do this, and have available only the nitrate which is already present in the water in the soil.
Where does urea and ammonium come from?
The breakdown or metabolism of protein. Proteins have a nitogenous group on the end that provides nitrogen for NH3 or NH4... components of ammonia and urea
