The answer to the first question about Jacob's RDA for protein is:

The answer is the second one: about 64 grams.

Explanation: The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for protein for an average adult is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. To calculate Jacob's RDA for protein:

  1. Convert Jacob's weight from pounds to kilograms: 175 pounds / 2.2 = 79.55 kilograms.
  2. Multiply his weight in kilograms by the RDA: 79.55 kg * 0.8 g/kg = 63.64 grams.

Therefore, Jacob's RDA for protein is approximately 64 grams.

Question 7: A complete protein source has all 9 of the essential amino acids. True

Explanation: A complete protein source contains all nine essential amino acids that the human body cannot produce on its own. These amino acids must be obtained through diet.

Question 8: The majority of plant proteins are complete protein sources. False

Explanation: Most plant proteins are considered incomplete because they lack one or more of the essential amino acids. However, there are some exceptions, such as quinoa and soy, which are complete protein sources.
