Which of the following is listed as a nutrient group in the material?

• A. Oils
• B. Carrots
• C. Tofu
• D. Bread

Answer: (A)

Nutrient groups include fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Oils are a form of fat, so they appear as a listed nutrient group in materials that categorize nutrients by type. The other options are individual foods that provide nutrients within those categories—carrots contribute vitamins and minerals, tofu is a protein source, and bread is a carbohydrate source—but they themselves are not nutrient groups.
