Document Summary

We get energy from food and bev. Taking the food we consume and using it for energy. How to find out energy of food. Set food on fire, measure temp of h2o. Kilocalorie - measurement for energy of food. Food pkgs w large c = calorie, small c = one thousandth of a calorie. More satiating - higher fiber and protein. Less satiating - higher fat and sugar. Use body mass index to refer to bmi (using abbreviation will have partial marks) Rmbr holistic and inclusive impacts of ban of single use plastics. All cancers develop from impaired gene function. Dna is the genetic material contained within each of your cells. Damage to your genes (dna) can disrupt the functioning of proteins. There are several types of genes linked to the development of cancer. These include oncogenes, tumor suppresor genes, dna repair genes, cell death genes, cell signaling genes, cell cycle checkpoint genes, and several others.
