Question

which food contains resistant starch, which escapes digestion and absorption?
o a. milk
o b. legumes
o c. applesauce
o d. very ripe banana

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Resistant starch is a type of starch that resists digestion in the small intestine. Legumes are known to be a good source of resistant starch. Milk mainly contains lactose (a sugar), not starch. Applesauce has little starch and what it has is more digestible. Very ripe bananas have less resistant starch compared to unripe ones as the starch converts to sugar during ripening.

Answer:

B. Legumes
