Answer 1

Note: This is for students who are in Connections Academy. Kindly use the following to only check your existing answers, not to cheat :)

1. MyPlate was created as a tool to help the average American eat one healthy meal a day.
A: False
It was created to help the average American consume THREE healthy meals a day, not one.

2. The five food groups represented in MyPlate does not include
A: Fats
Apparently fats are not essential, but I strongly beg to differ. This info is outdated, there are many researchers and articles out there that state the benefits of fats, but for your curriculum and grade, just stick with what they say for now ;)

3. True or False:

The more active you are, the fewer calories you should eat.
A: False.
Your body needs more calories to continue running the more active you are. Saying otherwise is like saying a car can drive longer distances with less fuel. Silly, right?

If you got any of these wrong, go back to the lesson to see what you missed, and take notes! Have a nice day! 💖
