PASS
constipation (con-stip-ay-shun)—ANSWER-When the intestines get blocked
up.
fibre (feye-ber)—ANSWER-Substance found in food which cannot be used by
the body. It helps to keep our intestines clean.
nutrition information (new-trish-un)—ANSWER-Information label found on a
food packet to tell you what is in the food.
nutrients (new-tree-ents)—ANSWER-Substances needed in the diet to
provide raw materials.
raw materials—ANSWER-Substances used to make other substances out of.
solvent—ANSWER-A liquid that can dissolve other substances to form
solutions.
solute—ANSWER-the minor (or smaller part) of a solution, this is generally
the name given for the thing that has been dissolved.
starch—ANSWER-Type of insoluble carbohydrate found in plants.
, water—ANSWER-A compound made of hydrogen and oxygen which the body
uses as a solvent.
balanced diet—ANSWER-Eating a wide variety of foods to give us all the
things that we need.
carbohydrate (car-bO-high-drate)—ANSWER-Substance found in food that is
used for energy.
chemical energy—ANSWER-Energy stored in chemicals like food.
fat—ANSWER-Substance found in food that is stored to be used for energy
in the future. It also helps to keep heat in our bodies and to make the
membranes of cells.
heart disease—ANSWER-Disease caused by narrowing of the arteries
carrying the blood to the muscles of the heart so the heart muscles do not
receive enough oxygen.
kilojoule (kJ) (kill-O-jool)—ANSWER-Unit of energy used on food packets.
There are 1000 J in 1 kJ.
mineral—ANSWER-Properly called a 'mineral salt' and found in food. Needed
in small quantities for health (e.g. calcium).
protein—ANSWER-Substance found in food that is used for growth and
repair and made of chains of chemicals called amino acids.
starch—ANSWER-Type of insoluble carbohydrate found in plants.
sugar—ANSWER-Type of soluble carbohydrate. Glucose is an example of a
sugar.
