Question

Which of the following food items will not provide energy after it is consumed?

• A. Raw potato
• B. Cooked rice
• C. A slice of a fruit
• D. Groundnut

Answer 1

The correct option is C A slice of a fruit

Cutting also raises the respiration rate, which results in sugars inside produce being broken down and carbon dioxide released.
This can result in faster spoilage as well as a change in the taste and texture of the produce. Lower temperatures help slow respiration, so pre-cut produce should be kept refrigerated.
The three factors that lead to nutrient loss are heat, oxygen, and light. Hence, a slice of a fruit is the food items which will not provide energy after it is consumed.

So, the correct option is 'a slice of a fruit'.
