Alex is on a special diet and needs to watch her intake of carbohydrates. Her doctor told her to maintain a 1,500 calorie per day diet and to make sure that these come from no more than 20% carbohydrates. She is snacking on pretzels and the nutrition label on the package says that there are 23 grams of carbohydrates per serving, which is 8% of the recommended daily allowance. How many calories should Alex get from carbohydrates and what percentage of her total recommended intake of carbohydrates in grams is this snack? (1 gram of carbohydrate provides 4 Calories.)

Alex should get 300 Calories from carbohydrates, which is about 75 grams. This snack is 30% of her total grams of carbohydrates per day.
Alex should get 300 Calories from carbohydrates, which is about 33 grams. This snack is almost 70% of her total grams of carbohydrates per day.

it's not c. i took the quiz and got it wrong. so my best guess is b.

have a great day, and hope this .

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.
