Alana is excited about all the health benefits that might accompany a vegetarian diet. However, she is concerned
that she will not consume enough protein to meet her needs. She is also concerned about possible vitamin and
mineral deficiencies. Use Nutrition-Calc Plus or a food composition table to calculate her protein intake and see if
her concerns are valid.
| Protein (g) | |
| Breakfast Calcium-fortified orange juice, 1 cup Soy milk, 1 cup Fortified bran flakes, 1 cup Banana, medium | |
| Snack Calcium-enriched granola bar | |
| Lunch Garden Burger, 4 oz Whole-wheat bun Mustard, 1 tbsp Soy cheese, 1 oz Apple, medium Green leaf lettuce, 1 1/2 cups Peanuts, 1 oz Sunflower seeds, 1/4 cup Tomato slices, 2 Mushrooms, 3 Vinaigrette salad dressing, 2 tbsp Iced tea | |
| Dinner Kidney beans, 1/2 cup Brown rice, 3/4 cup Fortified margarine, 2tbsp Mixed vegetables, 1/4 cup Hot tea | |
| Dessert Strawberries, 1/2 cup Angel food cake, 1 small slice Soy milk, 1/2 cup | |
| TOTAL PROTEIN (grams) |
Alana's diet contained 2150 kcal, with grams of protein (Is this plenty for her?), 360 grams of carbohydrate,
57 grams of total dietary fat (only 9 grams of which came from saturated fat), and 50 grams of fiber. Her vitamin
and mineral intake with respect to those of concern to vegetarians--vitamin B-12, vitamin D, calcium, iron, and
zinc--met her needs.

QUESTION 1
Student A carried out an experiment to test for the presence of protein in skim milk. He used a chemical indicator called Biuret reagent which turns purple in the presence of proteins (the reagent is blue). He also identified egg white as an example of a solution containing protein and verified that egg white does cause the Biuret reagent to turn purple. For his milk experiment, Student A added the following items to a test tube and heated it for 3 minutes: 1 mL skim milk, 1 mL distilled water, 0.5 mL of egg white, 0.5 mL Biuret reagent. The solution turned purple and the student concluded that the milk contained protein.
What is the function of the egg white?
| it is the negative control | ||
| it is the experimental group | ||
| egg white serves no purpose in this experiment | ||
| it is a positive control |
