57
Q

Describe why energy is not considered a nutrient per se, but it is very important from a nutrition standpoint.

A

Energy is not a chemical (element or compound) in the diet (recall the definition of a nutrient), but the metabolism of CHO, Protein and Fats provides energy for life purposes

58
Q

Describe the difference in starch and cellulose, and why this affects the CHO nutrition of monogastrics (nonruminants) and ruminants.

A

Starch and cellulose are both composed of glucose units, the difference being in starch (amylose) the glucose units are bound with an alpha 1,4 linkage and in cellulose the glucose units are bound with a beta 1,4 linkage. Because only MCO can break the beta 1,4 linkages (no enzyme produced by animals), monogastrics rely on starch more so because they can digest the alpha 1,4 linkages, whereas ruminants and monogastric herbivores rely on the bacteria in the rumen and large intestine to digest the cellulose which can provide VFA for energy.
