Concept explainers
a.
To determine:
The fiber which can mix with water.
Introduction:
The carbohydrates are also taken as the dietary fibers which cannot be digested with the enzymes of body. So they are classified in two classes, soluble fibers and insoluble fibers. The fibers which can mix with water are soluble fibers and the fibers which do not mix with water known as insoluble fibers.
b.
To determine:
The fiber which can lower the blood cholesterol.
Introduction:
The carbohydrates are also taken as the dietary fibers which cannot be digested with the enzymes of body. So they are classified in two classes, soluble fibers and insoluble fibers. The fibers which can mix with water are soluble fibers and the fibers which do not mix with water known as insoluble fibers.
c.
To determine:
The fiber that has a laxative effect.
Introduction:
The carbohydrates are also taken as the dietary fibers which cannot be digested with the enzymes of body. So they are classified in two classes, soluble fibers and insoluble fibers. The fibers which can mix with water are soluble fibers and the fibers which do not mix with water known as insoluble fibers.
