A diet provides 2 500 kcal per day with the macronutrient distribution 55 % carbohydrate, 30 % fat and 15 % protein. (a) Determine the grams of carbohydrate, fat and protein supplied each day. (b) Assuming each gram of carbohydrate yields 4 kcal and that oxidation of one molecule of glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆, molar mass 180 g mol⁻¹) produces 30 ATP, calculate the total moles of ATP generated per day from carbohydrate oxidation.

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. Carbohydrate 343.8 g, Fat 83.3 g, Protein 93.8 g; ATP from carbohydrate oxidation ≈ 57.3 mol
B. Carbohydrate 340.0 g, Fat 85.0 g, Protein 95.0 g; ATP from carbohydrate oxidation ≈ 60.0 mol
C. Carbohydrate 345.0 g, Fat 82.0 g, Protein 92.0 g; ATP from carbohydrate oxidation ≈ 58.0 mol
D. Carbohydrate 350.0 g, Fat 80.0 g, Protein 90.0 g; ATP from carbohydrate oxidation ≈ 55.0 mol
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
Carbohydrate 343.8 g, Fat 83.3 g, Protein 93.8 g; ATP from carbohydrate oxidation ≈ 57.3 mol
