Nutrition labels diagram1 - Start with the serving information at the top.
This will tell you the size of a single serving and the total number of servings per container (package).
2 - Next, check total calories per serving and container.
Pay attention to the calories per serving and how many calories you’re really consuming if you eat the whole package. If you double the servings you eat, you double the calories and nutrients.
The next section of information on a nutrition label is about the amounts of specific nutrients in the product.
3 - Limit certain nutrients.
Check key nutrients and understand what you’re looking for. Not all fats are bad , and total sugars can include both natural and added sugars. Limit the amounts of added sugars , saturated fat and sodium you eat, and avoid trans fat. When choosing among different brands or similar products, compare labels and choose foods with less of these nutrients when possible..
4 - Get enough of the beneficial nutrients.
Make sure you get enough of the nutrients your body needs, such as: calcium, choline, dietary fiber, iron, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins A, C, D and E.*
5 - Understand % Daily Value.
The % Daily Value (DV) tells you the percentage of each nutrient in a single serving, in terms of the daily recommended amount. If you want to consume less of a nutrient (such as saturated fat or sodium), choose foods with a lower % DV (5 percent or less). If you want to consume more of a nutrient (such as fiber), choose foods with a higher % DV (20 percent or more).
Here are more tips for getting as much health information as possible from the Nutrition Facts label:
Remember that the information shown in the label is based on a diet of 2,000 calories a day. You may need less or more than 2,000 calories depending upon your age, gender, activity level, and whether you’re trying to lose, gain or maintain your weight.
When the Nutrition Facts label says a food contains “0 g” of trans fat, but includes “partially hydrogenated oil” in the ingredient list, it means the food contains some trans fat, but less than 0.5 grams per serving. So, if you eat more than one serving, you could end up eating too much trans fat.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the Nutrition Facts label seen on packaged foods and drinks. In 2016, the FDA released changes to the label to make it easier to see how many calories and added sugars are in a product and to make serving sizes more realistic. These changes are still being implemented throughout the food industry, so for now you may see the redesigned version shown here or the old original version.

Answer:
At divergent plate boundaries, plates move away from each other.
Explanation:
Answer/Explanation:
DNA replication doubles each chromosome, meaning the cell can pass on DNA to daughter cells - the duplicated DNA is divided equally between the two new cells formed from the parent.
The laws of inheritance are:
1) The Law of Dominance: An organism with alternate forms of a gene, called alleles, will always display the form that is dominant, masking the recessive trait.
2) The Law of Segregation: In a diploid genome, like most eukaryotes, each trait is defined by a pair of genes (alleles). Each allele is randomly passed on to the gametes so that each gamete only contains one allele. The offspring inherits one allele from each parent during the process of fertilization.
2) The Law of Independent Assortment: Genes for different traits are sorted independently from one another That is, the inheritance of one trait does not depend on the inheritance of another trait. so that the inheritance of one trait is not dependent on the inheritance of another.
The DNA Is Both Physically And Chemically Broken ( Cleaved ) By The High Energy Waves. Most of this damage is due to ionization when the radiation passes,
although if levels of radiation are high there can be damage due to
heating effects as your body absorbs the energy from the radiation,
rather like heating food in a microwave oven.
