Introduction :
Nutrition is the process by which a person can take in and uses food. Food supplies building blocks and energy to maintain body mass. The daily intake of energy from food should be equal to the amount of energy that a person uses daily. A calorie is a unit used to measure the energy content of the food.
Answer to Problem 19A
Correct answer :
The correct answer is option (C) 5 percent.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer :
Option (C) 5 percent. Nutrition labels are provided on commercially packaged foods. These labels are based on a 2000-Calorie per day diet. Labels can be especially useful for monitoring fat and sodium intake, two nutrients that need to be consumed in moderation. According to the given nutrition label, the recommended daily value of saturated fat is 5 percent entire. Meat, cheeses, and other dairy products are sources of saturated fats. So, the correct answer is option (C).
Explanation for incorrect answer :
Option (A) 14 percent. According to the given nutrition label, the daily recommended value of saturated fat is 5 percent. So, this is an incorrect option.
Option (B) 28 percent. The nutrition labels are based on a 2000-Calorie per day diet. In the given nutrition label, the recommended daily value of saturated fat is 5 percent. So, this is an incorrect answer.
Option (D) 35 percent. According to the given nutrition label, the daily recommended value of saturated fat is 5 percent, not 35 percent. So, this is an incorrect answer.

Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas.
