- Let’s play the role of a Dietician once again. Suppose that a parent of a young child came to you for advice about nutrition for their child. Provide at least five examples of healthy snacks and iron-rich foods and snacks that you would suggest and why?arrow_forwardThe human digestive system has evolved to efficiently process regular meals, and many of us eat normal-sized meals a few times a day. However, imagine if humans could only eat one *giant* meal, just once every *week*. How might our digestive systems be changed to make this possible? Describe two specific ways that you could modify the human digestive system to accommodate eating much larger meals, much less often.arrow_forwardDuring digestion we produce energy by converting large complex molecules into smaller simpler molecules. During this process what best describes the changes in energy? 1. Stays the same 2. Increases 3. Decreases 4. Increases then decreasesarrow_forward

Comparing accessory organs: liver, gallbladder, pancreas. Compare 2 different vertebrates, include function of the organs. Remember not all vertebrates will have a gall bladder.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true about digestion and digestive tracts? Check all that apply. Intracellular digestion is common amongst herbivores because cellulose needs to be broken down. Intracellular digestion is common amongst herbivores because cellulose needs to be broken down. Animals with an incomplete digestive tract have a body cavity with one opening.Animals with an incomplete digestive tract have a body cavity with one opening. Carnivores have more digestive organs than do herbivores due to the need to break down meat. Carnivores have more digestive organs than do herbivores due to the need to break down meat.

Using figure 5.3, compare what you could burn off those calories. How far would you have to run, swim, or walk to burn 1 pound of fat, and how long would it take? Which method of burning calories appeals the most to you? The least? How much of each food would you have to consume in order to gain a single pound? How does 1 pound's worth of food compare with 1 pounds worth of exercise? Does it seem like an even trade off?arrow_forward
