What is a characteristic of plant sources of protein like beans, nuts, and lentils?

They are complete proteins with all essential amino acids.

They are always complete proteins with all essential amino acids.

They are lower in essential amino acids compared to animal proteins.

They offer less total protein and are more likely to be incomplete proteins. (correct)

What is a characteristic of some plant proteins like soy, tofu, quinoa, and buckwheat?

They are complete proteins with all essential amino acids. (correct)

They are lower in essential amino acids compared to animal proteins.

They are always incomplete proteins.

They are never complete proteins with all essential amino acids.

Why might a well-planned plant-based diet provide the same protein-related benefits as animal protein?

Because plant-based diets always have more protein than animal-based diets.

Because a proper combination of plant sources can provide all essential amino acids. (correct)

Because plant-based diets always have fewer calories than animal-based diets.

Because plant-based diets are naturally more nutritious than animal-based diets.
