Answer:

A desirable intake of dietary fiber is 20-35 grams daily, according to the American Dietetic Association.

Explanation:

Dietary fiber has always been a part of a healthy, balanced eating lifestyle. Fiber has 2 types, soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber is a <u>gelatin-like</u> substance when combined with water and when ingested, <u>can help slow the travel of food in the gut, making you feel</u> <em>"full."</em> Insoluble fiber or roughage is the <u>bulk-forming type</u>. It <u>holds water</u> in its structure, helping <u>regulate the bowel movements.</u>

Fiber, being a <u>complex carbohydrate</u>, can help <u>lessen the risk of an increase of bad cholesterol and blood sugar</u>. Examples of fiber-rich foods are whole grain products, barley, oats, grapes, etc.

Which two organs of a plant interact to cause seedlings to grow upward
Pie

There's tropism and stimulus, for starters. Gravity, light, and touch can all be used as stimuli. So it is debatable... If the plant is reaching upwards towards a window that is above it... It would then be light, and the plant's response would be to reach upward.

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest?

Explain using the following words describe how one phrase or word includes all of the rest of the words: trophic level, food cha
coldgirl [10]
I would say energy myself, and this is because energy plays a key role in all of these. With trophic levels energy is being transferred amongst the levels. Food chain's is a map of how the energy is passed along the chain. Food web is a web of how energy is transferred, and this is why I would say energy is a keyword.
