Detailed explanation-1: -Carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, protein provides 4 calories per gram, and fat provides 9 calories per gram.
Detailed explanation-2: -Each gram of carbohydrate and protein yield 4 calories/gram.
Detailed explanation-3: -A gram of carbohydrate has 4 calories.
Detailed explanation-4: -Carbohydrates and proteins provide about 4 calories per gram. Fat contributes more than twice as much-about 9 calories per gram. Alcohol, although not a nutrient, also supplies energy-about 7 calories per gram. Foods that are high in fat are also high in calories.
Detailed explanation-5: -Foods with the highest concentration of fats would have the highest calories per gram. Because 1g of fat = 9 calories while 1g of protein/carbs = 4 calories.
