Nutrition and diet

We are involved in several daily activities. These actions need a significant quantity of energy. The food we eat provides this energy. Food is necessary for development, repair, and other living activities since it supplies energy. All of these are part of the living practice known as nutrition. Nutrition is the study of nutrients in food, how the body uses them, and the relationship between diet, health, and disease. Nutritionists employ concepts from molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics to understand how nutrients affect the human body. Nutrition also looks at how people can use their diet to reduce their risk of disease, as well as what happens when they ingest too much or too little of a nutrient and how allergies emerge.

a.
Eat earlier in the food chain.

e. Take more vitamins
C.
d.
12. According to the demographic transition model, what happens to population size as societies move from
agricultural production to industrialization?
a. It increases as death rates exceed birth rates.
b. It decreases as death rates exceed birth rates.
c. It increases as birth rates exceed death rates.
d. It stabilizes with no changes in birth and death rates.
e. It stabilizes as birth and death rates are balanced
