Macomb Community College Wellness, Health & Exercise Science Department Child Diet Summary Questions (100 points) Before answering the questions for this assignment please view the SAMPLE DIET ANALYSIS document that I provided in the directions. This will help you understand exactly how it should look when you submit. You will need submit the following reports and be sure you enter your Student ID info for each report. A. RECOMMENDATIONS REPORT B. BAR GRAPH REPORT (2) C. MY PLATE REPORT (2) Save your reports as an .html, this will enable you to highlight the report so you can copy and paste them directly into the word document under the appropriate sections. If that does not work then you can screenshot the reports and save them as an image to your computer. Then you can insert the image into the word document. You can also save them as .pdf and insert them into the word document that way. If you are having trouble with this then contact online support to help you with inserting the saved reports into the word document. I cannot grade your answers if I cannot see the reports. DO NOT submit links. I cannot open them and when I can open them they take me to the NutriCalc log in page. REPORTS ARE TO BE SUBMITTED UNDER THE CORRECT PART.
