which of the following foods would have the most fiber?
○ kidney beans
○ english muffins made with enriched flour

○ corn flakes

Explanation:

Question 5

Carbohydrate digestion starts in the mouth. Salivary amylase in saliva begins breaking down starches (a type of carbohydrate). Gastric lipase is for fat digestion, pancreatic amylase acts in the small intestine (but digestion starts earlier), and large intestine microflora handle some undigested carbs but not the start of digestion.

Kidney beans are legumes, which are high in dietary fiber. Enriched flour products (English muffins), orange juice (juice, lacks fiber from whole fruit), and corn flakes (processed cereal) have less fiber than legumes like kidney beans.

Answer:

A. mouth with salivary amylase
