Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Unlike the energy-containing nutrients, vitamins do not yield energy when they are metabolized, but rather participate in the body in different ways, including aiding in metabolism. Additionally, vitamins are comprised of single units that are not linked together. Finally, vitamins are required in much smaller amounts than the energy-containing nutrients.
