Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Feedback:
The 1400 cal/day diet recommends the following: 5 oz grains, 1.5 cups vegetables, 1.5 cups fruit, 2 cups milk, 4 oz protein, and 4 teaspoon oil on a daily basis.

Answer to Question 2

B
Malnutrition decreases skin density and slows wound healing. Fevers and infection may cause excessive sweating, reddening and soreness, but these symptoms would not be caused by malnu-trition. Malnutrition tends to decrease hair growth or cause hair to become brittle and easily pluckable.
