Answer to Question 1

C
Protein provides 4 kcals/g; fat provides 9 kcals/g; carbohydrate provides 4 kcals/g. Therefore, the soup contains (5 x 4) + (2 x 9) + (20 x 4) = 20 + 18 + 80 = 118 kcals.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Irradiation is sometimes referred to as cold pasteurization because it does not use heat.
