____ 18. All types of carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram.

____ 19. Research indicates that consuming foods with a lower glycemic load may offer significant health
benefits, including weight control and decreased risk of diabetes and heart disease.

____ 20. The average American consumes and exceeds the daily recommendations for fiber intake.


Completion
Complete each statement.

21. Place the steps of carbohydrate digestion in order. (1 to 10)
_____ 1. Enzyme action is inhibited due to acidic environment, and bolus is converted to chyme.
_____ 2. Chyme passes into the duodenum, and pancreatic enzymes help to break glycosidic bonds.
_____ 3. Salivary amylase begins to break polysaccharides into oligosaccharides and disaccharides.
_____ 4. Bolus moves into the stomach.
_____ 5. Brush border enzymes break carbohydrates into monosaccharides, and absorption occurs into
the microvilli.
_____ 6. Undigested carbohydrates move into the large intestine.
_____ 7. Chyme passes into the jejunum and ileum.
_____ 8. Some fiber is partially digested by bacteria through fermentation, and the remaining fiber is
excreted.
_____ 9. Monosaccharides absorbed into the bloodstream pass through portal circulation for
distribution or storage.
_____ 10. Bolus passes through the esophagus.


Short Answer

Chapter 1: Carbohydrates
Answer Section

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. ANS: B
Rationale: Lactose is a disaccharide, and fructose and galactose must be converted to glucose for the cells to
use for energy.

PTS: 1 DIF: Easy OBJ: 1-1
KEY: monosaccharide | glucose | energy sources
2. ANS: A
Rationale: The body stores carbohydrates as glycogen in the liver and muscles.

PTS: 1 DIF: Easy OBJ: 1-1 | 1-4 KEY: glycogen | carbohydrate storage
3. ANS: A
Rationale: The stevia plant produces a noncaloric, all-natural sweetener.

PTS: 1 DIF: Easy OBJ: 1-1 KEY: stevia | noncaloric sweeteners
4. ANS: D
Rationale: Oligosaccharides are chains of three to ten monosaccharides. Amylose and amylopectin are
examples of polysaccharide starches, and galactose is a monosaccharide.

PTS: 1 DIF: Easy OBJ: 1-2 KEY: oligosaccharide
5. ANS: B
Rationale: Amylose is resistant to digestion. Cellulose is a basically indigestible fiber, and glycogen is not a
form of starch.

PTS: 1 DIF: Easy OBJ: 1-2 KEY: starch | carbohydrate structure
6. ANS: C
Rationale: The enzyme lactase is responsible for breaking lactose into its component parts. The inability to
break down lactose results in painful gastrointestinal symptoms like abdominal cramps, bloating, diarrhea,
and flatulence.

PTS: 1 DIF: Moderate OBJ: 1-4
KEY: lactose intolerance | carbohydrate digestion
7. ANS: C
Rationale: The body can store approximately 240 g of glycogen (90 g in the liver and 150 g in the muscles).
Any additional glucose not needed for normal body activity is converted to fat for storage.

PTS: 1 DIF: Moderate OBJ: 1-4 KEY: glycogen | carbohydrate storage
8. ANS: A
Rationale: Insulin and glucagon, the hormones responsible for regulating blood sugar, are produced in the
pancreas.

PTS: 1 DIF: Moderate OBJ: 1-5 KEY: blood sugar
9. ANS: C
