true
false

1. elders who are bed-ridden or wheelchair bound require fewer calories than a mobile person.

true
false

Explanation:

Question 51

Lactose is the main carbohydrate in breast milk and cow's milk - based formulas. Glucose is a simple sugar, galactose is a monosaccharide, maltose is a disaccharide from starch breakdown, and dextrose is another name for glucose. Lactose (glucose + galactose) is specific to milk.

Pregnant vegetarians can meet protein needs through plant - based sources like legumes, tofu, nuts, seeds, and fortified foods. A balanced vegetarian diet during pregnancy can provide sufficient protein. So the statement is false.

Bed - ridden or wheelchair - bound elders have lower physical activity levels, which means their energy (calorie) requirements are less than those of mobile individuals who expend more energy through movement. So the statement is true.

Answer:

D. Lactose
