    What is most likely to contain high amounts of cholesterol?

    • Unsaturated Fats

    • Broccoli

    • Saturated Fats

    • Oranges

    Correct Answer
    A. Saturated Fats
    Explanation
    Saturated fats are most likely to contain high amounts of cholesterol. Cholesterol is a type of fat that is naturally produced by the body and is also found in certain foods. Saturated fats, which are typically solid at room temperature, are known to raise levels of LDL cholesterol in the blood. LDL cholesterol is often referred to as "bad" cholesterol because high levels can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Therefore, consuming foods high in saturated fats can contribute to high cholesterol levels.

    Complete proteins contain 9 essential amino acids

    Correct Answer
    True
    Explanation
    Complete proteins are those that contain all nine essential amino acids that our bodies cannot produce on their own and must be obtained from our diet. These essential amino acids are necessary for various functions in our body, including building and repairing tissues, producing enzymes and hormones, and supporting immune function. Therefore, the statement "Complete proteins contain 9 essential amino acids" is true.

    Explanation
    The term "intensity" refers to the level of difficulty or effort put into an exercise.

    When your body adopts to your exercise load, you should

    • Slightly decrease the load

    • Slightly increase the load

    • Change the kind of exercise

    • Stop exercising

    Correct Answer
    A. Slightly increase the load
    Explanation
    As your body adapts to your exercise load, it becomes more efficient at performing the exercises. To continue challenging your body and making progress, it is recommended to slightly increase the load. This means adding more weight, increasing the intensity, or adding more repetitions or sets to your workout routine. By doing so, you can continue to stimulate your muscles and prevent plateauing in your fitness journey.

    A proper meal usually contains proteins, carbohydrates, and fats

    Correct Answer
    True
    Explanation
    A proper meal usually contains proteins, carbohydrates, and fats because these three macronutrients are essential for providing energy, supporting growth and development, and maintaining overall health. Proteins are the building blocks of the body and are necessary for repairing and building tissues. Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy for the body. Fats are important for insulation, protecting organs, and providing a concentrated source of energy. Including all three macronutrients in a meal ensures a balanced and nutritious diet.

    Incomplete proteins contain no calories

    Correct Answer
    False
    Explanation
    This statement is false. Incomplete proteins do contain calories. Proteins are made up of amino acids, and incomplete proteins lack one or more essential amino acids. While incomplete proteins may not provide all the necessary amino acids for optimal health, they still contribute calories to the diet. Each gram of protein provides 4 calories, regardless of whether it is complete or incomplete. Therefore, incomplete proteins do contain calories.

    Everyone should eat six small meals per day

    Correct Answer
    False
    Explanation
    Eating six small meals per day is not a requirement for everyone. The number of meals a person should consume can vary depending on their individual needs, preferences, and lifestyle. Some people may prefer to eat three larger meals, while others may prefer to eat smaller, more frequent meals. It is important to listen to your body's hunger and fullness cues and eat in a way that supports your overall health and well-being.

    Eating too much fruit could have negative effects.

    Correct Answer
    True
    Explanation
    Eating too much fruit can have negative effects because fruits contain natural sugars, which can contribute to weight gain and increase the risk of developing conditions like diabetes. Additionally, excessive fruit consumption can lead to digestive issues such as bloating, gas, and diarrhea due to the high fiber content. It is important to consume fruits in moderation as part of a balanced diet to reap their health benefits without experiencing any negative consequences.

    Correct Answer
    False
    Explanation
    The given statement is false. Dumbbell Fly's primarily work the chest muscles, specifically the pectoral muscles. The exercise involves lying on a bench with dumbbells in hand and performing a fly motion by bringing the arms out to the sides and then back together.

    Squats primarily work the quadricpes muscles

    Correct Answer
    True
    Explanation
    Squats primarily work the quadriceps muscles because this exercise involves bending the knees and lowering the body, which activates the quadriceps located in the front of the thighs. The quadriceps are responsible for extending the knee joint and are heavily engaged during squats to provide stability and power. Additionally, squats also engage other muscles such as the glutes, hamstrings, and core, but the primary focus is on the quadriceps.

    Skittles is a good meal to have before a workout because the sugar gives you quick energy

    Correct Answer
    False
    Explanation
    Eating Skittles before a workout is not a good idea because although they contain sugar, it is not a sustainable source of energy for a workout. The sugar in Skittles will provide a quick burst of energy, but it will be short-lived and can lead to a crash during the workout. It is better to consume a balanced meal with complex carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats to provide sustained energy for a workout.

    It is ok to eat fast food for one meal per day

    Correct Answer
    False
    Explanation
    Eating fast food for one meal per day is not considered okay because fast food is generally high in unhealthy fats, sodium, and calories. Regularly consuming fast food can lead to weight gain, increased risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes, and poor nutrition. It is recommended to have a balanced diet consisting of whole foods that provide essential nutrients for optimal health.

    Which of the following is NOT a benefit of muscular endurance exercise

    • Increases resting heart rate

    • Decreased Body fat

    • Ability to work longer without tiring

    • Increased bone strength

    Correct Answer
    A. Increases resting heart rate
    Explanation
    Muscular endurance exercise is beneficial for various reasons, including decreased body fat, ability to work longer without tiring, and increased bone strength. However, it does not increase resting heart rate. Resting heart rate is the number of times your heart beats per minute while at rest, and it is generally desirable to have a lower resting heart rate as it indicates a healthier cardiovascular system. Muscular endurance exercise focuses on improving the endurance and strength of your muscles, rather than directly affecting your resting heart rate.

Grains are an important source of carbohydrates, fiber, and various essential nutrients. Whole wheat is an example of a grain that is rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. It is a healthier choice compared to refined grains as it contains the entire grain kernel, including the bran, germ, and endosperm.
