  2. Proteins
  3. Vitamins and minerals
  4. Fats
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: CVitamins and minerals
Award 1 mark for identifying that green leafy vegetables like callaloo are rich sources of vitamins (especially A and C) and minerals (especially iron and calcium). A is incorrect — carbohydrates are most abundant in the rice. B is incorrect — proteins are most abundant in the chicken. D is incorrect — fats would be found in cooking oil or the chicken skin.

  4. translucent
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: Ablue-black
Award 1 mark for recognising that iodine solution turns blue-black in the presence of starch, which is abundant in cassava. B is incorrect — brick-red is the result of Benedict's test for reducing sugars when heated. C is incorrect — purple is the colour of the Biuret reagent, not a positive result. D is incorrect — translucent spots indicate the presence of fats/oils in the emulsion or grease spot test.

CXC CSEC Integrated Science: Nutrition FAQ

How many CXC CSEC Integrated Science questions on Nutrition are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Nutrition for CXC CSEC Integrated Science, with new questions added every week. Each question gives you instant feedback and a full examiner-style mark scheme that tells you exactly what would earn marks on a real CXC paper. The questions span the full difficulty range — from straightforward recall (level 1) right up to multi-step reasoning and evaluation (level 3) — so the bank works for first-pass revision and final exam-week stress testing alike.
Is Kramizo free for CXC CSEC students preparing for Integrated Science?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Nutrition practice with other Integrated Science topics or even switch to a totally different CXC subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Nutrition questions aligned to the official CXC CSEC Integrated Science syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CXC CSEC Integrated Science specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CXC paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CXC.
How is Nutrition typically tested on CXC CSEC Integrated Science papers?
Nutrition appears across multiple question types on real CXC CSEC Integrated Science papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
