To solve this problem, we need to look at the Food Pyramid shown in the diagram. The pyramid is divided into different sections, and each section lists a food group along with the recommended number of servings per day.
Here is the step-by-step breakdown based on the labels in the image:
1.
Top Section (Tip): This section is for "Fats, Oils and Sweets." The text says to
"use sparingly."
2.
Second Section from Top: This is the "Milk, Yogurt and Cheese Group." The label indicates
2-3 Servings.
3.
Third Section from Top: This is the "Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dry Beans, Eggs, and Nuts Group." The label indicates
2-3 Servings.
4.
Fourth Section from Top: This is the "Vegetable Group." The label indicates
3-5 Servings.
5.
Fifth Section from Top: This is the "Fruit Group." The label indicates
2-4 Servings.
6.
Bottom Section (Base): This is the "Bread, Cereal, Rice, and Pasta Group." The label indicates
6-11 Servings.
Now, we can fill in the blanks for "How many servings of each food group are recommended?":
*
Fats, Oils, and Sweets: Use sparingly
*
Milk, Yogurt, and Cheese: 2-3 servings
*
Meat, Poultry, Fish, etc.: 2-3 servings
*
Vegetables: 3-5 servings
*
Fruits: 2-4 servings
*
Bread, Cereal, Rice, and Pasta: 6-11 servings
Final Answer:
Fats, Oils, and Sweets: Use sparingly
Milk, Yogurt, and Cheese: 2-3 servings
Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dry Beans, Eggs, and Nuts: 2-3 servings
Vegetables: 3-5 servings
Fruits: 2-4 servings
Bread, Cereal, Rice, and Pasta: 6-11 servings
