A vector is a mathematical concept that denotes direction and magnitude. They're often notated using an arrow ($\vec{v}$), or with a bold, lowercase letter. (**v**).
A vector is a mathematical concept that denotes direction and magnitude. They're often notated using an arrow ($\overrightarrow{v}$), or with a bold, lowercase letter. (**v**).
Vectors are often denoted as a matrix with two rows: $\begin{bmatrix}1 \\2\end{bmatrix}$
# Component Form
If $\vec{v}$ is a vector with the initial point $(x_y,\ y_i)$, and a terminal point $(x_t,\ y_t)$, we can express $\vec{v}$ in component form as $\vec{v} = \langle x_t - x_i,\ y_t, -y_i \rangle$
# Magnitude
The magnitude of a vector is $|\vec{v}| = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$
# Direction
The direction of a vector is $\theta = \tan^-1(\frac{b}{a})$.
# Addition
To find $\vec{u} + \vec{v}$, we can put one vector on the end of another vector. The resulting vector will share the same tail as the first vector, and the same head as the second vector.
# Scalar Multiplication
A **scalar** is just a real number. Scalar multiplication is multiplying a vector with a real number. This will scale or shrink a vector, but does not change the direction it points at.
We do not multiply two vectors together.
# Unit Vector
A vector with a magnitude of 1 is a **unit vector**.
If $\vec{v}$ is a nonzero vector, the unit vector can be found using the equation $\vec{u} = \dfrac{1}{|\vec{v}|}\vec{v}$ . In other words, to find a unit vector, divide the vector by its magnitude.
# $i$, $j$ Notation
Every 2d vector has a horizontal component and a vertical component. The horizontal unit vector could be written as $i = \langle 1, 0 \rangle$, and the vertical unit vector could be written as $j = \langle 0, 1 \rangle$ Every vector can be made up using a combination of these standard unit vectors.
# Trigonometric Form
Given a vector $\vec{v}$ with a magnitude $|\vec{v}|$ and direction $\theta$:
The component form is given as:
$$ \vec{v} = \langle \cos \theta,\ |\vec{v}|\sin\theta \rangle $$
# Standard position
- A vector is in standard position if the initial point is at $(0, 0)$.
# The Dot Product
The dot product of two vectors $\vec{u} = \langle a, b \rangle$ and $\vec{v} = \langle c, d \rangle$ is $\vec{u} * \vec{v} = ac + bd$.
- Given that $\vec{u} = \langle -7, 3 \rangle$, and $\vec{v} = \langle -3, 4 \rangle$, find $\vec{u} * \vec{v}$.
- $\vec{u} * \vec{v} = -7 * -4 + 3 * 4$
The dot product can be used to find the angle between two vectors.
If $\theta (0\degree < \theta < 180\degree)$, is the angle between two nonzero vectors $\vec{u}$ and $\vec{v}$, then
$$ \cos\theta = \dfrac{\vec{u}*\vec{v}}{|\vec{u}||\vec{v}|} $$
# Work
The dot product can be used to compute the work required to move an object a certain distance.
To compute work, you need a force and direction. If the force is applied in the same direction:
$$ W = Fd $$
The work $W$ is done by a constant force $\vec{F}$ in moving an object from a point $P$ to a point $Q$ is defined by:
$$ W = \vec{F} \cdot\vec{PQ} = |\vec{F}||\vec{PQ}|\cos\theta $$Where $\theta$ is the angle between $\vec{F}$ and $\vec{PQ}$.
$$\begin{bmatrix}
1 \\
2
\end{bmatrix}

# Macronutrients
- We need a larger amount
- Provides Calories
## Carbohydrates
- Provides 4 calories per gram
- The storage form of carbohydrates in the body is as glycogen (very branched sugar). Stored in muscles and in liver
- Only **monosaccharides** can be directly absorbed. Everything else must be broken down first.
### Simple
- Mono/Disaccharides
Monosaccharides include:
- Glucose
- Fructose (fruit sugar)
- Galactose
Disaccharides include:
- Sucrose (glucose + fructose)
- Maltose (glucose + glucose)
- Lactose (glucose + galactose)
### Complex
- Polysaccharides
Polysaccharides include:
- Starches
- Amalose
- Amalopectin (More branched)
- Fiber
- Photosynthesis +Sun + carbon + hydrogen + oxygen
## Protein
- Provides 4 calories per gram
- Protein is composed of amino acids
- There are **9 essential** amino acids
- There are **11 non-essential** amino acids
- Donkey bridge: If it starts with the letter A, it's a non-essential amino acid
- Protein has nitrogen alongside hydrogen, carbon, and
- To use protein as energy, it must be **deanimated**.
## Lipids/Fats
- Provides 9 calories per gram
- Fat is composed of hydrocarbon chains
- Tryglicerine - 3 fatty acid chains, with glycerol backbone
### Saturated Fats
- Saturated fats have no double bonds
### Unsaturated Fats
- Unsaturated fats have one or more double bond
### HDL (High Density Lipoprotein)
- We want high HDL levels
- Takes cholesterol out of the cells to the liver to be excreted
### LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein)
- We want low LDL levels
- Takes cholesterol into arteries
### oLDL (Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein)
- Damaged LDL
- Deposits plaque
# Micronutrients
- Smaller Amounts
- Don't provide calories
## Vitamins
## Minerals
## Water
- Not a macro or micronutrient, but still one of the 6 major nutrition groups
## Alcohol
- While not in a food group, provides 7 calories per gram
# Digestive System
1. Mouth
- Digestion of carbs/starches, and fats begin here.
- Mechanical digestion (chewing)
- Chemical digestion (amalayses (starch) and lipases (fat) in the mouth)
2. Esophagus
- Peristalsis is an involuntary relaxation and contraction of muscles to move food down
1. Gastroesophageal/Lower Esophageal/Cardiac Sphincter
- When this sphincter misfires, it can cause heartburn or gastroesphageal reflex disease (GERD)
2. Stomach
- Protein
3. Pyloric Sphincter
4. Small Intestine (DJI)
1. Duodenum
2. Jejunum
3. Ilium
5. Ilieocecal Valve
# DRI (Dietary Reference Intakes)
## EAR (Estimated Average Requirement)
- Meet the requirements of 50% of healthy individuals
## RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance)
- 97.5% of healthy people
- EAR plus a margin of safety
## AI (Adequate Intake)
- The average amount of nutrients a healthy population needs to consume
## UL (Upper Limit)
- Prevents overconsumption
## AMDR (Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range)
- Carbs: 45-65% / kCal
- Protein: 10-35% / kCal
- Fats: 20-35% / kCal
## EER (Estimated Energy Requirements)
- Average estimated caloric needs
- Actual needs vary
# Hormones
## Insulin
Insulin is made by the beta cells in the pancreas, and promotes absorption of glucose from the blood into liver, fat, and skeletal muscles.
- Insulin is released when blood sugar levels are too high
## Glucagon
Glucagon is a peptide hormone, produced by the alpha cells of the pancreas. It's the opposite of insulin, and it increases blood sugar levels.
- Glucagon is released when blood sugar levels are too low
## Ghrelin
Ghrellin is known as the "hunger hormone", and it increases the drive to eat. It increases gastric motility and stimulates the secretion of gastric acid.
## Leptin
Leptin's primary role is to regulate long-term energy balance. High leptin levels indicate to the brain that energy reserves are high.
# Study Types
## Exprimental
- A systematic way of testing a hypothesis
## Epidemiological
- Observations of the occurrence, distribution, and associations
