4 (d) Water forms about 70% of the body weight and is an important constituent of all body cells.
5 (a) Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the amount of energy expended while at rest in a neutrally temperate environment, in the post-absorptive state (meaning that the digestive system is inactive, which requires about twelve hours of fasting in humans). The release of energy in this state is sufficient only for the functioning of the vital organs, such as the heart, lungs, brain and the rest of the nervous system, liver, kidneys, sex organs, muscles and skin.
6 (a) An excess of vitamin D causes abnormally high levels of calcium in the blood, which can eventually severely damage the bones, soft tissues, and kidneys. It is almost always caused by forms of vitamin D that require a doctor's prescription.
7 (a) Peanut Oil is a Monounsaturated fat, as such it may be substituted into a diet to reduce the negative health effects of eating Trans fat and Saturated Fat.
