HW 8 (16, 26, 32, 38)
16. Determine how much energy is released or required for the reaction shown. Is this reaction exothermic or endothermic? CO2 + 2 H2O → CH4 + 2 O2
This reaction is endothermic
26. Why can’t we digest fiber?
We cannot digest fiber because we lack the enzyme capable of breaking the sugar linkages in cellulose.
32. Why is unsaturated fat considered much healthier than saturated or trans fat?
Unsaturated fat provides benefits of fat in the diet without the risk of cardiovascular disease and increased LDL/HDL ratio.
38. For optimal heart health, should LDL be high or low? Should HDL be high or low?
LDL should be low because it is the bad cholesterol level and HDL should be high because it is the good cholesterol level.
