Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, E
Essential fatty acids are required for cell membrane structure, prostaglandin production, and eicosanoid production. Essential fatty acids are not a source of energy, do not catalyze metabolic reactions, and do not stimulate growth hormone.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C
The macronutrients protein, fat, and carbohydrate are primary energy sources required for balanced metabolism. Minerals and vitamins are not primary sources of energy for the body.
