Answer to Problem 22.6E
The macronutrient found in potato chips is carbohydrate.
The decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in potato chips is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
Potatoes are good source of carbohydrate and small amount of protein. Potato chips are formed by deep frying in oil. Deep frying makes potatoes a source of lipid also. Therefore, potato chips are a good source of carbohydrates.

Answer to Problem 22.6E
The macronutrient found in a plain sandwich with jam is carbohydrates.
The decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a plain toast with jam is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
Jam is made up of different types of fruits. Fruits are rich in sugar. This makes jam a good source of carbohydrates. Therefore, the type of macronutrient found in plain toast with jam is carbohydrate.
Therefore, the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a cheese sandwich is shown below.
The macronutrient found in a plain sandwich with jam is carbohydrate and the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a plain sandwich with jam is
(d)
Interpretation:
The type of macronutrient found in cheese sandwich is to be stated. The decreasing order of abundance of macronutrients present in cheese sandwich is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Macronutrients are required in large amounts in the human body. Three types of macronutrients are necessary for the human body for the proper functioning of metabolism. The three types of macronutrients are lipids, proteins and carbohydrates.
Answer to Problem 22.6E
The macronutrient found in a cheese sandwich is carbohydrate.
The decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a cheese sandwich is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
Cheese is milk made product. It is a good source of carbohydrate with sufficient amount of lipid. Milk sugar is also present in a cheese sandwich which makes cheese sandwich a good source of lipid also.
Therefore, the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a cheese sandwich is shown below.
The macronutrient found in a cheese sandwich is carbohydrate and the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a cheese sandwich is
(e)
Interpretation:
The type of macronutrient found in a lean steak is to be stated. The decreasing order of abundance of macronutrients present in a lean steak is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Macronutrients are required in large amounts in the human body. Three types of macronutrients are necessary for the human body for the proper functioning of metabolism. The three types of macronutrients are lipids, proteins and carbohydrates.
Answer to Problem 22.6E
The macronutrient found in a lean steak is protein.
The decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a lean steak is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
A lean steak means a piece of meat. It is a good source of protein with sufficient amount of lipid. A lean steak does not contain much amount of fat or carbohydrate. Therefore, a lean steak is a good source of protein.
Therefore, the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a lean steak is shown below.
The macronutrient found in a lean steak is protein and the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a lean steak is
(f)
Interpretation:
The type of macronutrient found in a fried egg is to be stated. The decreasing order of abundance of macronutrients present in a fried egg is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Macronutrients are required in large amounts in the human body. Three types of macronutrients are necessary for the human body for the proper functioning of metabolism. The three types of macronutrients are lipids, proteins and carbohydrates.
Answer to Problem 22.6E
The macronutrient found in a fried egg is lipid.
The decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a fried egg is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
Eggs are good source of lipid with sufficient amount of protein. The process of frying increases the concentration of lipid in egg. Therefore, fried egg is a good source of lipid.
Therefore, the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a fried egg is shown below.
The macronutrient found in a fried egg is lipid and the decreasing abundance order of macronutrients present in a fried egg is

- One of the most common types of kidney stones are composed of calcium oxalate. In addition to calcium oxalate another product is also formed in the formation of kidney stones in the body. Certain foods are high in oxalate and lead to an increase of forming kidney stones in the human body. These high-risk foods are as follows: Spinach Swiss Chard Almonds (nuts in general) Sesame Seeds Soy Products (such as soy-based milk, cheese, yogurt) Sweet Potatoes Okra Beets Chocolate Black Tea Another risk factor to developing kidney stones is not drinking enough water. Males have a higher chance than females of developing kidney stones, with the average age being 30. Oxalate in food binds to calcium during digestion in the stomach and intestines and then is excreted in the body as waste. If too much oxalate appears in the urine and not enough liquid (due to not drinking enough water), then calcium oxalate crystals form, which are the kidney stone. A 35 year old male was taken to the hospital…arrow_forwardOne of the most common types of kidney stones are composed of calcium oxalate.
