which of the following conditions have been proven to arise from large sugar consumption:
○ diabetes
○ dental decay
○ obesity
○ hypertension

Explanation:

Question 9

• Enzyme: Biological catalysts, not a polysaccharide.
• Dextrin: Formed from starch breakdown, not the main plant polysaccharide of glucose units.
• Glycogen: Animal storage polysaccharide, not plant - based.
• Starch: Plant polysaccharide made of many glucose units.

• Diabetes: Complex, not solely from large sugar consumption.
• Dental decay: Bacteria use sugar to produce acid, proven link to sugar.
• Obesity: Multifactorial, sugar is a contributing factor but not sole cause, and "proven" here is less direct than dental decay.
• Hypertension: Complex, sugar is a contributing factor but not a direct proven sole cause like dental decay.

Answer:

D. Starch
