Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Total fat intake should be between 20 and 35 of total calories with most fats coming from polyunsaturated or monounsaturated fatty acids. The Food Guide Pyramid is a basic guide for buying food and meal preparation. This basic system provides for diets ranging from 1600 to 2800 kcal/day. Losing weight at a slow rate is healthier than taking it off quickly. In general, when energy requirements are completely met by kilocalorie intake in food, weight does not change. When the kilocalories ingested exceed a person's energy demands, the individual gains weight. If the kilocalories ingested fail to meet a person's energy requirements, the individual loses weight.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
The infant usually doubles birth weight at 4 to 5 months and triples it at 1 year.
