The purpose of a controlled experiment is to allow a scientist to isolate and test?

A single variable.

In an experiment we are trying to figure out how one thing (independent) effects another thing (dependent) so we want to keep everything constant. We want that experiment to be controlled so nothing else is effecting our dependent variable. That way we can be 100% sure that any change to our dependent is due to our independent variable. Hope that makes sense

The 4 categories of macromolecules include carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Carbohydrates (grains and vegetables) are the largest group at the base of the pyramid, proteins (milk, poultry, eggs, nuts) follow up the pyramid while lipids (fats and oils) are the least amount at the summit of the pyramid.

The aim of the pyramid is to recommend ideal rations for a healthy diet. Carbohydrates provide most of the energy needs for the days’ activities hence taking the largest portion. Proteins are used in building muscles, f0r nutrition, and body’s immunity hence required in lesser amounts compared to carbohydrates.
