o For each of the 3 major macromolecules (i.e., proteins, fats, and carbohydrates) explain in your own words at least 2 functions each has in the human body, plants, or animals. (10 pts) o Compare the nutrition label for ground beef below to the nutrition label from any canned vegetable you may have in your pantry. Name your chosen vegetable and describe three differences between the two labels as they relate to macromolecules. (Note: if you do not have any canned vegetables, you may use the internet to find a label.) (10 pts) o Reflect on what you learned in this Unit about a healthy diet. Then, explain why you think beef is or is not necessary for a balanced diet. (10 pts)

Selected Answer: A. The three macronutrients are proteins, carbs, and fats. They each have a different fuction but work together to keep the body moving. Proteins promote muscle growth and regulate body tissue. Carbs provide energy to the body and stores energy. Fats are fuels the body and provide cell function. B. We eat only beans out of the can. Other vegetables and fruits we prefer fresh. After comparing the two foods, there are differences we do not think about. While both beans and burgers offer protein, the beef offered more protein. Because of the fat content in beef, it had more fat than beans. In this case, the beans are a leaner protein. The beans are starchy and offer more carbohydrates. C. I am not a big meat eater. Beef takes longer to digest and can do more harm than good. I would stick to the beans as a healthier choice. From this lesson, I would have to say that beans are healthier as they offer less fat, the carbs can be burned off, and the beans offer a leaner healthier choice of protein.
