Answer to Question 1

A
The body uses sterols to make sex hormones, bile, and vitamin D. Triglycerides are used for energy and stored fat. Phospholipids are important in cell membranes. Chylomicrons are the first lipoproteins formed after absorption of lipids from the blood.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Clients with dry mouth should be encouraged to drink high-calorie, high-protein liquids between meals. Boost and Ensure are two commercially available drinks.

A
Fat provides the densest energy source. Fat provides 9 kcal/g; protein and carbohydrate each provide 4 kcal/g; alcohol provides 7 kcal/g.
