Food and Energy Notes
• Food: provides the materials for energy, growth
and repair of tissues.
• Calorie: amount of energy needed to raise the
temperature of one gram of water by one degree
Celsius.
• Metabolism: represents the sum of all chemical
reactions that takes place within an organism.
• Nutrients: substances in food that provide the
raw materials and energy the body needs to
carry out all vital processes. There are six (6)
nutrients: carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins,
minerals and water.
• Human Body: ~ 60-70% water
Food and Energy Notes
• Carbohydrates: major source of quick
energy; provides the raw materials to
make parts of cells
• Fats: stored energy. Fats form part of the
cell membrane and fatty tissue protects
and supports your internal organs and
insulates your body. Brain Development
• Protein: needed for tissue growth and
repair/maintenance (ex: muscle).
Proteins play a role in chemical reactions
within the cell (= enzymes).
Food and Energy Notes
• Vitamins and Minerals are needed in
small amounts to carry out chemical
reactions.
• Water is important because the chemical
reactions take place in water; blood flows
due to water; joints lubricated by water;
body temperature is regulated by water
(perspiration/sweat).
