c fruit
d. vegetables

Explanation:

• Question 14: Complete proteins are defined as those that supply all essential amino acids. Essential amino acids are those that the body cannot synthesize on its own and must be obtained from the diet. Options a (increase cholesterol levels) is not a general property of complete protein sources. Option b (stored as fat) is more related to excess calories from any macronutrient (not specific to protein source type). Option c (supply more energy) - proteins (both complete and incomplete) supply \(4\) kcal per gram.
• Question 15: Dietary fiber is composed of plant substances that are difficult or impossible to digest. Amino acids are the building - blocks of proteins. Triglycerides are a type of fat. Simple sugars are a form of carbohydrate (monosaccharides or disaccharides) which are digested easily.
• Question 16: Oils and sugars are generally recommended to be consumed in the fewest daily servings. Meat, while it should be consumed in moderation (especially red and processed meat), is a source of protein. Fruits and vegetables are recommended to be consumed in relatively large quantities due to their high fiber, vitamin, and mineral content.
