1. In the most recent edition of Choose Your Foods: Exchange List for Diabetes, the three groups into which foods are arranged are:

A. fruits and vegetables, breads, and meats.
B. fats, starches and sugars, and meat and milk.
C. fruits and vegetables, meat and milk, and starches.
D. carbohydrates, meat and meat substitutes, and fats.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: carbohydrates, meat and meat substitutes, and fats. The most recent edition of Choose Your Foods: Exchange List for Diabetes categorizes foods into these three groups for easier meal planning. Choice A is incorrect because it does not include carbohydrates and groups bread with fruits and vegetables. Choice B is incorrect because it separates carbohydrates into starches and sugars, which are usually counted together in diabetes meal planning. Choice C is incorrect as it does not specifically categorize foods into carbohydrates, meat, and fats as per the latest edition.

2. What is the process of converting glycogen to glucose called?

A. Glucogenesis.
B. Glycogenolysis.
C. Glyconeogenesis.
D. Gluconeogenesis.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Glycogenolysis. Glycogenolysis is the process of breaking down glycogen into glucose. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. Glucogenesis (choice A) is not a term used in biochemistry. Glyconeogenesis (choice C) refers to the synthesis of new glucose molecules from non-carbohydrate sources, not the breakdown of glycogen. Gluconeogenesis (choice D) is the process of producing glucose from non-carbohydrate sources, not the breakdown of glycogen.

3. Which enzyme is secreted by the salivary glands?

A. Pepsin.
B. Trypsin.
C. Sucrase.
D. Amylase.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, amylase. Amylase is an enzyme produced by the salivary glands that initiates the digestion of carbohydrates in the mouth. Pepsin (choice A) is produced in the stomach to digest proteins, trypsin (choice B) is produced in the pancreas to digest proteins, and sucrase (choice C) is produced in the small intestine to break down sucrose. Therefore, choices A, B, and C are incorrect in the context of an enzyme secreted by the salivary glands.

4. A food choice equivalent to one serving from the Protein group of MyPlate is:

A. 1 tbsp peanut butter.
B. 3 oz fish.
C. 2 oz cheese.
D. 1/2 cup cooked dry beans or peas.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: One tablespoon of peanut butter is equivalent to one serving from the Protein group in MyPlate. It provides a good amount of protein and healthy fats. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they represent larger serving sizes than a single serving from the Protein group in MyPlate. 3 oz of fish, 2 oz of cheese, and 1/2 cup of cooked dry beans or peas would exceed the recommended serving size for the Protein group.

5. What are the actions involved in the process of digestion?

A. thermal and chemical.
B. chemical and segmental.
C. muscular and chemical.
D. mechanical and thermal.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'muscular and chemical.' In the process of digestion, muscular movements help in mixing and propelling food along the digestive tract, while chemical breakdowns involving enzymes and acids break down food into smaller molecules for absorption. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as thermal, segmental, and mechanical actions are not the primary actions involved in the digestion process.
