Problem 7
Classify the predominant carbohydrate type for each of these foods: (1) Whole-wheat bread, (2) Plain milk, (3) Hard candy. Which matching set is correct?
A
1: Pure fructose, 2: Cellulose, 3: Protein-bound sugars — because whole wheat has fruit-derived sugars, milk is rich in plant fiber, and candy typically contains glycoproteins instead of free sugars.
B
1: Starch (complex carbohydrate), 2: Sugar (lactose), 3: Sugar (sucrose or simple sugars).
C
1: Fiber only with no starch, 2: Starch, 3: Starch — because dairy and candies are high in starch polymers derived from grains used in manufacturing.
D
1: Fat, 2: Fat, 3: Fat — because modern food processing converts most carbohydrates into fats, so these items are predominantly fat-based.
