Marasmus- which of the following is not correct?

  • Simultaneous deficiency of proteins and calories

  • Affects infants of less than 1 year

  • Mother's milk is replaced by protein rich diet

  • Pregnancy in lactation period.

Marasmus is not characterized by-

  • Protein deficiency

  • Impaired growth

  • Replacement of tissue proteins

  • Swelling of limbs

Emaciation of the body, thinning of limbs, skin becomes dry, thin and wrinkled. The above symptoms are associated with-

Fats under the skin, Extensive oedema and swelling of body parts. These are related to

  • Marasmus

  • Kawashiorkar

  • Both

  • Protemia

The energy requirement of animals and the energy content of food is expressed in terms of

Heat energy is the measure of food content because it is

  • The ultimate form of all energies

  • Better to measure

  • Better to express

  • The most easy way to write energy calculation
