Question 1.
Write a note on nutrients.
Answer:
Nutrients:

  • Nutrients are obtained from food and are used as a source of energy by the body.
  • The main nutrients obtained from food are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins, minerals and water. Most nutrients are organic macromolecules.
  • Along with providing energy, these nutrients also regulate various body functions like growth, repair of damaged body tissues, etc.

The following table consists of different types of nutrients and their major sources.

Type of nutrient Sources
Carbohydrates Grains, fruits, vegetables, etc.
Proteins Meat, fish. eggs, dairy products, pulses, etc.
Lipids Dairy products, vegetable oil, animal fats, etc.
Vitamins Grains, fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, pulses, etc.

Question 2.
What happens when proteins and carbohydrates present in foods are digested in presence of enzymes?
Answer:

  • Proteins and carbohydrates are organic polymeric macromolecules.
  • When food is digested in presence of enzymes, the polymeric carbohydrates and proteins break down into monomers, i.e., glucose and α-amino acids, respectively.

Question 3.
Quality of food changes on shelving. Explain.
Answer:

  • Enzymes are naturally present in all food materials.
  • Quality of food changes on shelving mostly due to enzyme action, chemical reactions with the environment, and the action of microorganisms.

Question 4.
Give two beneficial effects of shelving of food in day-to-day life.
Answer:

  • The setting of milk into curd.
  • Raising flour dough to make bread.

[Note: These changes are brought about by the action of microorganisms.]

Question 5.
How are the chemical reactions of foodstuff with the environment controlled during storage?
Answer:

  • Primarily the oxygen and microorganisms in the air are responsible for adverse effects on stored food.
  • The exposure of stored food to the atmosphere is minimized by storing them in an airtight container, evacuating or filling the container with N2 gas.
  • The rate of a chemical reaction decreases with the lowering of temperature. Thus, refrigeration is useful for controlling the chemical reaction of foodstuff with the environment.
  • The reactions of foodstuff with the environment are catalyzed by enzymes. Due to boiling, the enzymes become denatured and the reactions are controlled.

Question 6.
What is the main aim of food preservation and food processing methods?
Answer:
Food preservation and food processing methods aim at the prevention of undesirable changes and attempt to bring about desirable changes in food.

Question 7.
The melting points of unsaturated fats are lower. Give reason.
Answer:

  • The long carbon chains of unsaturated fatty acids contain one or more C=C double bonds which produces one or more ‘kinks’ in the chain. This prevents the molecules from packing closely together.
  • Also, the van der Waals forces between the unsaturated chains are weak.

Hence, the melting points of unsaturated fats are lower.

Question 8.
i. What are natural fats? Comment on their melting points.
ii. Explain how unsaturation affects the melting point and crystalline nature of fats.
Answer:
i. Natural fats are mixtures of triglycerides. They do not have sharp melting points and melt over a range of temperatures.

ii. Effect of unsaturation:

  • The more unsaturated the fat (i.e., the presence of C=C bonds), lower is its melting point.
  • Also, they will be less crystalline in nature.

Note: Naturals fats and their physical states

Mainly saturated fats Mainly monounsaturated fats Mainly polyunsaturated fats
Coconut fat/oil, butterfat, lard, margarine, Vanaspati ghee Olive oil, peanut oil, canola oil Safflower oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, com oil, fish oil

Note: Molecular shapes of fats (A schematic representation):
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 16 Chemistry in Everyday Life 1

Question 9.
Write a note on cis and trans form of unsaturated fats.
Answer:
Due to the presence of C=C double bonds, unsaturated fats can have two geometrical isomers, i.e., cis form and transform.
i. Cis form:

  • In the cis form of an unsaturated fatty acid, the two hydrogens on the two double bonded carbons are on the same side of the double bond.
  • It is the most common form of unsaturated fats.
  • Cis fats do not cause deposition of cholesterol in blood vessels and thus, decrease the chance of developing coronary heart disease.

ii. Transform:

  • In the transform of an unsaturated fatty acid, the two hydrogens on the two double bonded carbons are on the opposite sides of the double bond.
  • Trans fats are difficult to metabolize and may get deposited to dangerous levels in fatty tissues.
  • Large amount of trans unsaturated fats, increase the tendency of cholesterol getting deposited in the blood vessels leading to increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

[Note: Transform occurs only in animal fats and processed unsaturated fats.]

Question 10.
In which form, fats are used to transport cholesterol in the body?
Answer:
Fats in the form of lipoprotein are used to transport cholesterol in the body.

Question 11.
Give reason: Excessive low-density lipoprotein (LDL) increases the risk of cardio vascular diseases.
Answer:
Excessive low-density lipoprotein (LDL) increases the risk of cardio vascular diseases because it causes deposition of cholesterol in blood vessels.

Question 12.
What does the term omega represent in unsaturated fatty acids? Explain with the help of an example.
Answer:
i. Omega denotes the last carbon of the carbon chain in unsaturated fatty acids.
ii. Depending upon the position of the double bond, there are several omega fatty acids such as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
iii. These names are given for the position of the double bond in a long carbon chain of the unsaturated fatty acid.
iv. Omega-3 fatty acids have C = C bond between the third and fourth carbon from the end of a carbon chain.
e.g. Linolenic acid (9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid).
