Assignment #21: The Vitamins and Minerals


We aren’t going to have sufficient time to cover the vitamins and minerals in depth as I had hoped.  Regardless, the next assignment won’t be that difficult.  Each of you is assigned a group of Vitamins and Minerals. I’ll send you each group by email. The goal is to tell your fellow students the following:

A)     A general description—is it fat soluble?  Water soluble?  What is it chemically? 

B)     Why the vitamin or mineral is needed.  Do a good job here—tell us WHY it’s needed (not just “it helps eyesight”).  You will see that each vitamin and mineral does many, many jobs!

C)     What foods are excellent or good sources of the vitamin or mineral

From what your classmates provide, make a “master table” for use during the 3rd exam.  Email me your “master table” for credit.
