5 An example of community support for health promotion is

a teaching a young mother safe food preparation skills

b watching a television show exposé about industry errors in food processing

c labeling fresh poultry packages with information about proper food storage

d being aware that Salmonella can be spread because of inadequate food preparation

skills

ANS: C

Food labeling information is an example of community support because it is a regulatory measure that supports new health-promoting behaviors within a social context Teaching, watching television and awareness may increase knowledge, but they do not alter the social context by regulation or environmental change

6 An example of a technique for health promotion is

a a client who exercises five times a week

b local supermarkets expanding the availability of fresh fruits and vegetables

c teaching a teenager how to choose healthier foods at fast-food restaurants

d information about the relationship of dietary intake and diet-related disorders

Trang 3

ANS: C

Health promotion consists of strategies that are designed to bring about a change in health, such as teaching a teenager how to choose healthier fast foods Exercising regularly

contributes to wellness, but is not bringing about a change in health unless this is a change in behavior A wider availability of fresh produce does not promote health, unless the

supermarket uses specific strategies to encourage their consumption Information about the relationship between nutrients and disease is simply information unless it is used to promote behavior change

7 For the efficient functioning and maintenance of the body, a person needs to consume sufficient amounts of

a fiber

b nutrients

c minerals

d supplements

ANS: B

The body needs sufficient amounts of all nutrients for efficient functioning and maintenance Fiber and minerals are both needed, but each only represents one type of nutrient

Supplements are not always necessary because sufficient nutrients can often be obtained from food

9 A healthy female client asks what she can do to prevent the development of type 2 diabetes The strategies you discuss with her are considered

a primary treatment

b primary prevention

c secondary prevention

d tertiary prevention

ANS: B

Prevention of the development of type 2 diabetes before the disorder develops is considered primary prevention Secondary prevention involves early detection to halt and minimize the effects of the disease, and tertiary prevention minimizes complications and helps restore health after the disorder has developed Primary treatment is not a recognized term

10 As a home health care nurse, you are visiting a 70-year-old client who has just returned home from the hospital after being treated for coronary artery disease The medical nutrition therapy or diet therapy developed for him by the hospital dietitian is

a primary treatment

b primary prevention

c secondary prevention

d tertiary prevention

ANS: D

This is an example of tertiary prevention to minimize complications and help restore health after heart disease has developed Primary prevention would occur before the disease

developed, and secondary prevention would involve early detection to minimize the effects

of the disease Primary treatment is not a recognized term

11 A nutrient that can be made by the body is called

a essential

b complete

c incomplete

d nonessential

ANS: D

Nonessential nutrients can be made by the body Essential nutrients cannot be made by the body and must be consumed The terms complete and incomplete refer to proteins Complete proteins contain all the essential amino acids; incomplete proteins are lacking one or more essential amino acids

DIF: Cognitive Level: Knowledge REF: Pages 7-8

12 Nutrients that do not yield energy include

a minerals, vitamins, and water

b protein, water, and vitamins

c water, vitamins, and carbohydrates

d minerals, vitamins, and protein

ANS: A

Minerals, vitamins, and water are all nutrients that do not yield energy Protein and

carbohydrates both yield energy; each provides 4 kcals per gram

DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension REF: Pages 7-9

13 Glucose is the

a sweetest of all sugars

b most efficient form of energy for the brain

c only carbohydrate found in fruits and sugars

d carbohydrate to avoid to prevent diabetes

ANS: B

Glucose provides the most efficient form of energy for the brain (and muscles too) Fructose and sucrose are both sweeter than glucose so it is not the sweetest sugar Various other carbohydrates are found in fruits and sugars Avoiding glucose does not prevent diabetes

14 The nutrient that provides the highest number of kcals per gram is

a protein

b alcohol

c fat

d carbohydrate

ANS: C

Fat provides the highest number of kcals: 9 per gram Protein and carbohydrate each provide

4 kcals per gram Alcohol provides 7 kcals per gram

Trang 6

15 A cup of frozen yogurt contains 24 g carbohydrate, 2 g fat, and 4 g protein The total number of kcals in the frozen yogurt is

a 110

b 130

c 140

d 162

ANS: B

24 g carbohydrate provides 24  4 = 96 kcals 2 g fat provides 2  9 = 18 kcals 4 g protein provides 4  4 = 16 kcals Therefore the total kcals in the frozen yogurt is 96 + 18 + 16 =

130 kcals

16 Combinations of amino acids link together to form

a protein

b carbohydrates

c dietary fiber

d lipids

ANS: A

Proteins are made up of various combinations of amino acids, linked together Carbohydrates are made up of one or more units of simple sugars Dietary fiber consists mostly of

carbohydrate that cannot be digested Lipids are made up of glycerol and triglycerides or sterols

17 Amino acids that must be consumed from plant and animal foods are called _ amino acids

a nonessential

b essential

c formative

d biologic

ANS: B

Amino acids that must be consumed from plant and animal foods are called essential amino acids Nonessential amino acids can be formed by the body from other nutrients Formative amino acids and biologic amino acids are not recognized terms

Trang 7

18 Lipids provide the best source of

a essential amino acids

b body-building materials

c glucose for the brain

d dense energy for the body

ANS: D

Because lipids provide more energy per gram than any other nutrient (lipids provide 9 kcals per gram; protein and carbohydrate provide 4 kcals per gram and alcohol provides 7 kcals per gram), they are the best source of dense energy for the body They do provide some body-building materials: phospholipids are an important part of the structure of cell membranes However proteins and minerals probably contribute more than lipids to building body

structure Lipids cannot be converted to glucose in the body

19 The category of nutrients that has a role in the production of hormones and helps protect body organs is

a lipids

b fibers

c protein

d carbohydrates

ANS: A

Many lipids are used in the body to form hormones and lipids provide a protective layer of padding around body organs Dietary fiber does not leave the gastrointestinal tract Protein is

an important part of many body structures but does not necessarily protect body organs; proteins may act as carriers for hormones, but are not used to make the hormones themselves Carbohydrates are a source of energy and have no real role in body structure or hormonal regulation

20 Triglycerides, phospholipids, and sterols are categories of

a lipids

b vitamins

c minerals

d carbohydrates

ANS: A

Lipids are made up of triglycerides, phospholipids, and sterols Categories of vitamins are fat soluble and water soluble Minerals are divided into major minerals and trace minerals Carbohydrates are simple carbohydrate, complex carbohydrates, and dietary fiber

Trang 8

TOP: Nursing Process: Analysis MSC: Client Needs: Physiological integrity

21 Water soluble and fat soluble describe the two classes of

a fiber

b vitamins

c minerals

d carbohydrates

ANS: B

Vitamins are either water soluble or fat soluble Dietary fiber is indigestible carbohydrate Minerals are classified as major minerals or trace minerals Carbohydrates are simple

carbohydrate, complex carbohydrates, and dietary fiber

22 A category of nutrients that assists other nutrients with metabolic functions throughout the body is

a water

b protein

c vitamins

d minerals

ANS: C

Vitamins indirectly assist other nutrients through the complete processes of digestion,

absorption, metabolism, and excretion Water provides a fluid medium and a transport system for body processes Protein makes up many body structures, enzymes, and

components of the immune system Minerals serve structural purposes and are found in body fluids

23 A class of nutrients that is important in body structure and influences the function of muscles and the central nervous system is

a proteins

b minerals

c vitamins

d carbohydrates

ANS: B

Minerals are important in body structures and influence the function of muscles and the central nervous system Proteins are structural components and form part of muscles, but are less influential in the central nervous system Vitamins and carbohydrates do not have structural functions

Trang 9

24 If a mine worker was trapped in a mine and it took several days for a rescue team to reach them, the nutrient that they would need most in order to survive is

a protein

b carbohydrate

c water

d vitamins

ANS: C

The body can only survive a few days without water The body may not function optimally without other nutrients, but can survive many days and even weeks without them

25 Combining classic concerns of deficiency diseases with interest to reduce the risk of chronic diet-related diseases is the focus of the

a Healthy People 2020.

b Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs)

c Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL)

d Estimated Energy Requirement (EER)

ANS: B

DRIs combine the classic concerns of deficiency diseases that were the original focus of nutrient recommendations with the contemporary interest to reduce the risk of chronic diet-related diseases such as coronary artery disease, cancer, and osteoporosis UL is the level of nutrient intake that should not be exceeded to prevent adverse health risks The EER aims to maintain good health by providing energy intake levels to maintain individuals’ body

weights within specific age, gender, height, weight, and physical activity categories Healthy People 2020 seeks to strengthen policy and practice to improve health.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension REF: Pages 4, 10-11

26 The best course of action to provide adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals is to

a promote weight loss

b eat a variety of foods

c eat at least 3 meals per day

d consume a high-fiber, low-fat diet

ANS: B

Trang 10

Including a variety of foods increases the likelihood of obtaining adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals Loss of weight will not contribute to adequate nutrient intake Eating

at least 3 meals per day may help increase nutrient intake to some extent, but they could still

be meals that provide a limited assortment of foods Similarly, a high-fiber, low-fat diet could consist of foods that are relatively low in vitamins and minerals

27 If a nurse wants to evaluate a client’s dietary intake, he or she may use

a anthropometric measurements, 24-hour recall, and/or a food record

b computer dietary analysis and biochemical laboratory testing

c diet history, a food record, and/or computer dietary analysis

d measurements of limbs, analysis of body fluids, and a diet history

ANS: C

Methods to assess dietary intake include use of a diet history, a food record, and/or

computer-assisted dietary analysis Anthropometric measurements (including measurements

of limbs) and biochemical laboratory testing (including analysis of body fluids) are used to help assess nutritional status, but not dietary intake
