b . 4.1 kcal, 4.0 kcal and 5.65 kcal, 5.00 kcal
c . 4.1 kcal, 4.0 kcal and 5.65 kcal, 4.0 kcal
d . 9.65 kcal, 5.65 kcal and 4 kcal, 4.1 kcal

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

a . 4.1 kcal, 4.0 kcal and 9.45 kcal, 9.0 kcal

Explanation:

Calorific value is the value of energy produced upon complete combustion of 1gm of food in a laboratory calorimeter. Physiological value is the value of energy produced upon oxidation of 1gm of food in a biological system. The calorific value of carbohydrates, lipid, and protein is 4.1,9.45, and 5.65 respectively. The physiological value of carbohydrates, lipid, and protein is 4, 9, and 4 respectively. All values are in Kcal per gram
