refers to a protein that contains all of the essential amino acids in a concentration/ratio that is capable of supporting growth and preventing deficiency if consumed in appropriate quantities

There are eight main functions of protein highlighted in Chapter 3. List each of these eight functions and provide a brief description of the function. 

Chapter 3 discusses six important factors that influence protein requirements for physically active and inactive people. Please list these six factors. 

True or False: Of the energy substrates (carbohydrates, proteins and fats), only the amino acids that make up proteins contain nitrogen. 

Using the calculations discussed in Chapter 3 reading and lecture, please calculate the following. Please show all of your work. Points will be awarded/docked based on work shown.  Tim is a 18 year old male distance runner. He is 5’11” and weighs 160 lbs. Calculate an appropriate total daily protein intake range for him. 

What amino acid appears to be the most potent stimulator of protein synthesis?

Let q represent “I get an A,” let r represent “I eat bananas,” and let p represent “It is Tuesday.”  Write the following compound statement in symbols (using p, q and r): It is Tuesday, and if I eat bananas, I do not get an A.
