Result:
Why just burning a food item provided information about its value as a portion of food? The nutritional value of food can be measured on many different scales. The most basic measurement scale is the free energy content of the food. In other words, how much energy is released when chemical bonds within the food are broken? The energy content of food is measured in calories The amount of kinetic energy required to raise the temperature of 1 ml of water, one-degree food is burn under controlled conditions breaking chemical bonds and releasing free energy. The burning is chemically similar to the break down of food. In cellular respiration all over the process occurs much more quickly and in a less controlled fashion. During a connection, calorimeter can measure the energy and food but cannot measure the digested energy of what we have.

Printed "proofs", the speaker says "provided"

Explanation: Listen again to "a food item provided information". The page shows "proofs", but you hear a different word.

Printed "nuts", the speaker says "food"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "The nutritional value of food". You see "nuts" on the page, which starts with a different letter, so trust the sound.

Printed "world", the speaker says "words"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "In other words". It shows "world" on the page, but both start with w, so listen to the full word.

Printed "crack", the speaker says "broken"

Explanation: The speaker says "bonds within the food are broken", not "crack". You will hear the ending is different, so follow the audio.

Printed "weight", the speaker says "calories"

Explanation: Listen for "measured in calories". The page shows "weight", which begins with a different letter and does not fit here, so click it.

Printed "burning", the speaker says "burn"

Explanation: You will hear "one-degree food is burn". The page reads "burning", both start with b, so listen for the shorter spoken word.

Printed "breaking", the speaker says "break down"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "similar to the break down". The printed word "breaking" ends differently, so follow the audio.

Printed "style", the speaker says "fashion"

Explanation: Listen again to "less controlled fashion". The page shows "style", which starts with a different letter, so trust the recording.

"calorimeter" matches the audio

Explanation: "connection, calorimeter can measure" has a technical name that looks tricky. The speaker says it exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"chemically" matches the audio

Explanation: "The burning is chemically similar" appears right next to a change. It may look odd, but the speaker says it exactly, so do not click it.
