Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D
Feedback:
Solid fats and sugar are in many foods. The diligent consumer who reads labels and recognizes the various names that are used will be more aware and can make conscious decisions. Banana chips are often coated with sugar and many brands of salt, including major name brands, now have dextrose added to it. Sweet rolls and microwave popcorn have added solid fats.

Answer to Question 2

6496 ounces of fluid
Rationale: The client lost 4 pounds of fluid. If there are 16 ounces in 1 pound of fluid, then the client lost 64 ounces. The fluid required to match what has been lost is 11.5 ounces for every ounce of fluid lost. This means that the client should drink 64 to 96 ounces of fluid to make up for what has been lost during the endurance event.
