The Berlin Blockade
Under the Potsdam Agreement of 1945, the victorious Allied powers agreed to split Germany into four different zones. Berlin, being such an important city was also split into four, against Stalin's wishes as Berlin was miles within his territory. The relationship between the Western Allies and the USSR began to cool as the reason for their relationship (fear of Fascism and fear of Hitler) was gone. Also the western allies wished to rebuild the Economy of Germany, using Marshall Aid money. They thought that rebuilding Germany's economy would prevent a resurgence of Nazism. Russia, however feared a revived German economy. One of the Allies plan's to help kick-start Germany's economy was the introduction of a new currency; the Deutsche-mark. However, Stalin was vehemently against this and was in favor of instead leaving the hyper-inflated old currency in place, hoping to destabilize the German economy. The Western Allies went ahead with their plan without Stalin and introduced the new currency. In response to this, Stalin cut all power, communication and travel links to-and-from Berlin. Stalin hoped to stop the introduction of the new currency and possibly even to force the Western Allies out of Berlin. The western allies however had different ideas and instigated one of the largest airlift operations in history. The airlift known as "Operation Vittels" and so many airplanes landed on Berlin's airports at Gatow and Templehof that a new airport had to be build at Tegel with the help of 19'000 volunteers. After one year of Soviet siege, Stalin eventually called of the blockade of Berlin. The first major incident of the Cold War had been won the Western Allies. The three Western allies merged their zones into the Federal Republic of Deutshland (FDR), a democratic country and Stalin turned his zone into the Deutscher Democratic Republic (DDR), a communist country.0 -

Q 4: People In History
A named religious reformer at the time of the Reformation.
John Calvin was born in France in the year 1509. His parents raised him as a Catholic. Calvin questioned the Catholic Church and studied the writings of Martin Luther and also he studied the bible.
Calvin went to Geneva in the hop to build a church but it was too severe a time and instead he returned a few years later to build his church. John Calvin believed Rome was the city of the devil.
Calvin's main beliefs were that God had selected a few who would go to heaven and to hell. Those who were saved and went to heaven were called the elect. The only source of teachings of Christ in Calvin's eyes was the bible. The only two sacraments Calvin believed in was Baptism and the Eucharist.
Calvin's followers grew as well as his church. The church was run by four different groups which included pastors who preached and conducted services, teachers who ran the schools and educated people to read the bible, Deacons who took care of the elderly and the sick and Elders who acted like a secret police. They encouraged people to spy on others and enforced Calvin's strict rules!
Calvin's rules included if found drunk a fine had to be paid, if caught singing or dancing which was immoral a jail sentence for three days and if someone was caught gambling they faced a very severe punishment such as being burned at the stake.
There are many reasons why Calvin's church had so many followers. People believed he would lead the to heaven. Others took inspiration for Calvin and set up churches in their own areas such as John Knox of Scotland who set up the Presbyterian Church.0 -

The Evangelists:
Mark - Mark is the author of the first gospel. His gospel was written in 70CE. Mark wrote his gospel for Christians living in Rome who were suffering from persecution. The theme of his gospel is that "Jesus had to suffer too", therefore relating to what the Roman Christians were going through. The symbol of Mark's gospel is a lion. Mark based his gospel on evidence from Peter, one of the apostles. Mark's gospel is a synoptic gospel.
Matthew - Matthew was a tax collector and he was one of Jesus' apostles. He wrote his gospel around the same time as Luke, in 85CE. Mark wrote his gospel for Christians living in Antioch, which was in modern-day Turkey. The theme of Matthew's gospel is that "Jesus is the human messiah". The symbol of Matthew's gospel is a man. This is to show that Jesus was the messiah and was fully human. Matthew based his gospel on Paul's gospel, his own life and a mysterious and anonymous document called Q, of which no copies exist today. Matthew's gospel is a synoptic gospel.
Luke - Luke was a doctor and was a gentile until he converted to Chrisitanity. He wrote his gospel around the same time as Matthew, in 85CE. Luke wrote his gospel for non-Christians living in Corinth, which is in Greece. He wrote his gospel for non-Christians in an attempt to convert them to Christianity, like he had himself done. The theme of Luke's gospel is that "Jesus is the saviour of all people." This was to show them that God loved all people, Christians and non-Christians. The symbol of Luke's gospel is the Ox. Luke based his gospel on the document Q, Mark's gospel and on his travels with Paul, the Christian missionary. Luke's gospel is a synoptic gospel.
John - John is said to be on of the lesser known apostles of Jesus, who outlived the others and was not killed because of his faith. He is known as Jesus' "beloved one". John was the final evangelist, he wrote his gospel in 95CE. John wrote his gospel for Jewish Christians living in Ephesus, which is in Turkey. The theme of John's gospel is that "Jesus is the Messiah and the Son of God". The symbol of John's gospel is the eagle, which symbolises with resurrection and acsension of Jesus. John based his gospel entirely on his own life as an apostle. John's gospel is not a synoptic gospel as it is not similar to the other gospels and also because he did not use Mark's gospel as a reference.0 -

Summary of the Munster Plantation:
The Monarch: Queen Elizabeth 1 ordered the plantation.
The immediate cause: The Fitzgeralds of Munster rebelled against the Queen in 1579 and were finally defeated in 1583. The Queen then confiscated their lands.
The Plantation: Half - a - million acres of Fitzgerald land in Kerry, Cork, Limerick and Waterford were given to English Undertakers who were English/Scottish gentlemen who were each given estates of 4000,8000 or 12000 acres at a small annual rent. They could NOT rent Irish tenants. They had to build stone houses with bawns surrounding them as protection. They had to follow the Protestant religion.
The result: The plantation failed because not enough English undertakers came to Ireland. Most of those who did come broke their promise by taking in Irish tenants/slaves. But the planters did succeed in bringing English farming methods to Munster and set up new towns eg. Killarney :C0 -
Q4 (A) i.
The Archaeologist:
Archaeologists find out about about the past by studying the thinks people left behind them. These things are called artefacts. Artefacts give archaeologists evidence about what happened in the past. Artefacts are primary sources as they come directly from the time being studied, examples are houses, tools, pottery and weapons.
Archaeologists find artefacts by digging or excavating in places where people once lived. They usually decided to excavate: near old buildings such as castles, in the centre of cities when old houses are being replaced, where aerial photographs show signs of old fields or houses or at places connected to stories or legend like the Hill of Tara.
After deciding on the site for the excavation, the archaeologists: make a plan of the site, dig very carefully using trowels and brushes, photograph or draw each artefact they find, mark on the site plan where each artefact was found and send each find to a museum where it is dated and studied.
Archaeologists use the artefacts they find as evidence about the lives of people who lived on the site long ago. From bones, shells and seeds they learn what people ate. From pollen they learn what crops they grew. From post holes they learn the shape and size of their houses. From scraps of cloth or bits of leather, they learn about their dress. From burials they learn about their culture and religion.
Archaeologists have three ways of finding how old an artefact is. The deeper down in the soil an object is the older it is. This is called stratigraphy. Living matter (i.e. animals and plants) contain carbon. After death, the carbon slowly leaks away. By measuring how much is left, archaeologists can tell how old an object is. This is called carbon dating. Finally, trees which grow at the same time have a similar pattern of tree rings. By comparing the pattern of rings in old pieces of timber, archaeologists can work out when the tree grew. This is called dendrochronology.0 -
Q4 (A) ii.
A Medieval Craftsman/Townsperson
For centuries after the fall of the Roman empire, Europe was disturbed by wars. Merchants could not trade safely and towns declined. However, after 1000 AD life became more peaceful, trade increased and towns revived.
Because medieval roads were bad, most goods were carried on the sea or along rivers, o that is where most medieval towns developed. Towns brought wealth to an area, so kings and lords gave charters to townspeople. Charters allowed townspeople to elect their own rulers and decide their own taxes.
Because wars were still common, townspeople built walls for protection. Gates in the walls were protected with gatehouses and were shut at sunset. One paved street, often called High Street, crossed the town from one gate to another. Other streets were unpaved lanes that got muddy when it rained. Rich merchants lived on High Street. Their houses, built partly of wood and partly of stone, had two or three storeys. The upper storey often leaned out in the street. Poorer people lived in single-storey wooden houses on the back lanes. The front room in many houses was also a shop. The family lived at the back and made goods there which were sold in the shop. Townspeople built handsome stone churches where they could worship God. Because there was no way of disposing of waste, people threw it into the street or over the walls. As a result, disease was common. When a plague, the Black Death, came in 1345 up to a third of townspeople died.
Many townspeople worked at a craft. There were butchers, bakers, tailors, fishmongers, carpenters, masons, goldsmiths and so on. Each craft had its own guild. The guilds set exams to check that every craftsmen knew his trade, checked the quality of the goods the craftsmen made and set wages for workers and provided help for members in sickness and old age.
To be admitted to a guild, a boy had to go through three stages. At twelve he went to work for a master as an apprentice. He lived in the master's house and had to work without pay. It was illegal to leave his master. After seven years he became a journeyman. He could now travel to look for better wages from another master. To become a master,the journeyman had to make a "masterpiece" and show it to the guild. If it was good enough he could join the guild, open his own shop and employ apprentices and journeymen.
An elected corporation ruled medieval towns: in theory all men in a town could vote for the corporation, but in most places only masters in the guild were allowed to vote. To protect the town from its enemies, the corporation had to keep the walls in good repair and see that they were guarded. To avoid disease, it had to keep the town clean and supply clean water. To stop fire from destroying the wooden houses, it enforced a curfew. That meant that the townspeople had to put of their fires at night.
Towns were centres of trade: The corporation organised a weekly market. Peasants from the countryside came to sell their produce to the townspeople and buy things they needed from the craftsmen's shops. The corporation also organised annual fairs on the fair green outside the walls. Foreign merchants came to buy local produce and sell things the locals could produce themselves like wine, iron and furs. There were also singers, jugglers, fortune tellers and people with strange animals. The corporation charged people a toll if they wanted to sell at its markets or fairs.0 -
Q4 (A) iii.
A named religious reformer
Jean Calvin - The main reformer in Switzerland was a Frenchman, Jean Calvin. He was born in 1509 into a Catholic family. As a student in Paris, Calvin became interested in Luther's ideas and converted to Protestantism. When the king of France began to persecute Protestants, Calvin fled to Switzerland. The people of Geneva asked him to help them set up a Protestant Church. He spent the rest of his life there.
Calvin shared many of Luther's ideas but he some that were different. He thought that God decided in advance who should go to heaven. Nothing a person did could change that. This idea is called "predestination". Neither popes nor princes should rule the Church. Instead the people in a parish should elect their own leaders, who would be called elders or presbyters.
Calvin tried to make Geneva into a "city of God". Gambling and dancing were forbidden. People had to wear dark, sober clothes. He believed that churches should be very plain with no statues, music or flowers. But he set up schools so that all children could learn to read and write. Reformers from around Europe admired Calvin and went to study in Geneva. When they returned home, they took his ideas with them. John Knox brought Calvin's ideas to Scotland and from there they spread to Ireland. Because of this, Calvin's version of the Reformation spread to more countries than Luther's. Jean Calvin died in 1564.0 -

The Penal Laws discriminated Catholics, they left them poor and powerless. Presbyterians were also slightly discriminated by the Anglicans as they would not allow them to sit in government jobs. Anglicans were divided into two groups, The Protestant Ascendancy, who controlled almost all the land and jobs and then the rest who had little wealth or power. Wolfetone belonged to this group.
Wolfetone belonged to the Church of Ireland but his family were not rich enough to be part of the Protestant Ascendancy. He studied law in Trinity College, but was more interested in politics. When the French revolution broke out, he welcomed it, hoping for "liberty, equality and fraternity" in Ireland too. In 1791 Presbyterians in Belfast set up a club to work for these ideas. Tone suggested they campaign against the Penal Laws. To convince them, he wrote a short book called "An Argument on behalf of the Catholics of Ireland". In it, Tone said that religious divisions were bad for Ireland. Many people were impressed by what he wrote and he was invited by Belfast Presbyterians him to join them in setting up the Society of United Irishmen.
The aims of the United Irishmen were to unite Irish people of all religions, reform the Irish parliament and reduce the power of the British government in Ireland. At first they worked peacefully for these aims, but in 1793 Britain went to war with France. The British thought that anyone who sympathised with French ideas was dangerous and watched the United Irishmen closely. When they found Tone talking to a French spy they forced him to leave Ireland for America and outlawed the UI.
New leaders took over after Tone left. They turned the UI into a secret society and planned a rebellion to set up an Irish republic. Tone knew they would need outside help. He went to France to persuade the French to send an army to Ireland. They listened to him and sent an army of 15,000 headed for Ireland. In December 1796 the army set out but their ships rant into terrible storms and had to go back to France.
This frightened the Ascendancy and the British government. They decided to destroy the UI before another French army could arrive. They used spies to uncover their plans and introduced a reign of terror in Ulster & Leinster. This then led to rebellions in Leinster, Wexford and Ulster which were unsuccessful. In Paris, Wolfe Tone at last persuaded the French to send more troops but they came too late to help the rebels. 1,100 men landed in Killala in Co. Mayo. Thousands of local people joined them. They defeated a small British army at Castlebar but then lost to a much larger force at Ballinamuck. A little later a small French fleet arrived in Lough Swilly in Donegal. Wolfe Tone was on board. The British navy captured them. Tone was sent to Dublin where he was tried and sentenced to hang. The asked to be shot like a soldier and when that was refused he committed suicide.0 -
Q4 (B) ii.
A named political leader in Ireland:
Éamon De Valera was an American-born Irishman who fought for Irish independence throughout the early 20th century. When the Anglo-Irish Treaty was formed between Ireland and Britain, De Valera was unhappy with the terms and opposed it. This led to the Irish Civil War, 1922-1923 between the pro-treaty and anti-treaty sides. De Valera and his followers lost the war and stayed out of Irish parliament affairs until 1926. He broke his links with the IRA and set up a new party called Fianna Fáil. De Valera and the Fianna Fáil TD's took the oath to the King of England, as set out in the Anglo-Irish Treaty and entered the Dáil. Fianna Fáil came up with new economic policies and promised to dismantle the treaty with Britain. As a result of this, they won the 1932 general election and De Valera became the head of government. He and Fianna Fáil remained in office until 1948.
Fianna Fáil quickly abolished the oath to the King and also imposed tariffs (taxes) on imports, most of which came from Britain. This angered the British who retaliated by putting taxes on Irish cattle going to Britain, this led to the "economic war" between the two countries until 1938. De Valera always opposed the treaty with Britain and once in power he began to dismantle it. First he removed the oath and downgraded the Governor General. In 1936 he removed the King as the head of state. De Valera wanted an Irish-made constitution, so in 1937 he brought in "Bunracht na hÉireann". In it the country was called "Ireland" or "Eire", Irish was it's official language, the head of state was the President and head of government was the Taoiseach. The constitution could only be changed by a vote of all people. In 1937 the people voted for the constitution in the first referendum in Irish history.
By 1938 - De Valera wanted peace with Britain. The Treaty was dead and Hitler threatened war. After talks, the Anglo-Irish Agreements were signed in 1938. This ended the economic war and trade returned as normal. When the Second World War began in September 1939, De Valera announced the country would be neutral. De Valera appointed Sean Lemass as Minister for Supplies to deal with rationing, this included gas and electricity. Due to this, many industries closed, unemployment was high and people went to Britain for work. De Valera passed the Offences Against the State Act when the IRA threatened Ireland's neutrality. This allowed him to imprison them without trial. During the war, De Valera followed a pro-British policy where he passed on information the the British and allowed the Irish to join the British forces.
World War II ended in 1945 but shortages of food and fuel continued. People blamed De Valera and Fianna Fáil who had been in power for 16 years. In the 1948 general election Fianna Fáil lost support and instead Ireland's first Inter-Party government was elected. The 1950's were unstable and the government changed several times. In Fianna Fáil, De Valera, who was 70 years old, retired as Taoiseach and Séan Lemass took over. De Valera was then elected as President of Ireland.0 -
Possibly will come up - Ireland during the Industrial Revolution:
Before the industrial revolution, Irish people made cloth in their own homes: woolen cloth was mainly produced in the Southern half of the country while linen cloth was mainly produced in the Northern half of the country. When industrialisation began, factories making cotton were set up on rivers mainly in the Dublin area. But when steam power became common, Ireland had a problem as there was very little coal here. Using cheap coal, British firms could produce woolen and cotton cloth more cheaply than Irish firms which closed down. The linen industry survived because not much linen was produced in Britain. Wealthy men set up linen factories in the Belfast area. Soon all linen manufacturing was located there. By 1850, Belfast was becoming an industrial city like Manchester, while other Irish cities had very little industry.
The population of Ireland doubled between 1780 and 1840 from 4 million to 8 million. But without factories most of the extra people had to make a living from farming. Wealthy landlords owned all the land in Ireland: they lived in big
houses with many servants to work for them and they divided their land into farms which they rented to farmers. Farmers paid rent to landlords for their farms. Some farmers had big crops and were well off, they grew crops like wheat and barley and kept cattle. They lived in comfortable houses and sent their children to school. They employed labourers (called cottiers) to work for them. They paid the cottiers by giving them small plots of land where they built cottages and grew potatoes. Other farmers made jobs for their children by subdividing their farms among them. This produced many tiny farms.
By 1840 about 3 million Irish people were either cottiers or farmers with tiny farms of less than 5 acres. They were very poor. Families lived in one-roomed cabins with mud walls and a thatched roof. Often they shared the cabin with chickens and pigs which they sold to help them pay the rent. Sometimes the men in the family went to Britain to work for rich farmers there and earn money for the rent. Potatoes were their main food. On one acre of land they could grow enough potatoes to feed a family for a year. Sometimes they also had milk or a piece of bacon or fish.
In 1845 the blight destroyed some potatoes. In 1846 it wiped out the whole crop. Over 3 million people were left without their main food. Many went to the workhouses which were set up to give shelter to the poor in ordinary times but not in a famine. Workhouses were soon packed with desperate people. Disease spread rapidly in them and many died. Other starving people flooded into towns and villages to beg for help. Private charities run by landlords, priests and others set up "soup kitchens" where people were fed each day. People from around the world sent money to help them.
The British government refused to give out free food. They set up public works (building roads, etc.) where people could earn money to buy food. This policy failed, without potatoes the price of other food went up and people were too weak to earn enough to pay for it. In 1847, after many had died, the British let the workhouses set up soup kitchens and give out free food.
Ireland was greatly changed by the famine. The population fell from 8.1 million in 1841 to 6.5 million in 1851. About 1 million people died of starvation. Another million emigrated to Britain, Canada or the USA. Most of those who died or left were cottiers and small farmers. Their land went to bigger farmers. Farmers no longer subdivided their land. After the famine emigration continued and the population went on falling for the rest of the 19th century. Many emigrants went to Britain where they got work in the new factories. Many endured the long sea voyage to the US where they formed large Irish communities. They often sent money to help Irish people who were fighting against British rule. Parents wanted children to know English when they left the country, so they encouraged children to forget Irish. Irish people blamed the British government for the famine and the demand for Irish independence grew.0 -

Production of oxygen O2
Hydrogen peroxide ---manganese dioxide (catalyst)---> water + oxygen.
2H2O2 ---MnO2---> 2H2O + O2
Proof of oxygen: relights a glowing splint.
Carbon (charcoal) burned in oxygen:
C + O2 ---> CO2 : This is an acidic oxide.
Magnesium burned in oxygen:
2Mg + O2 ---> 2MgO : This is a basic oxide.
Production of CO2, carbon dioxide (denser than air, can be poured)
Calcium Carbonate (marble chips) + Hydrochloric acid ---> Calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide
CaCO3 + 2Hcl ---> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
Proof: quenches a lighted splint.
Limewater + carbon dioxide ---> Chalk + Water
Ca(OH)2 + CO2 --->CaCO3 +H2O
Carbon dioxide + water ---> Carbonic acid (acid rain)
CO2 + H2O ---> H2CO3
Production of hydrogen, H2 (colourless, odourless, highly reactive gas)
Zinc + Hydrochloric acid = Zinc chloride + Hydrogen
Zn + 2HCl = ZnCl2 + H2
Proof of hydrogen: Popping noise with a lighted splint.
Acid Rain:
Carbon dioxide in air dissolves in rainwater
CO2 + H2O ---> H2CO3 (carbonic acid)
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) from factories and cars burning fossil fuels SO2 then dissolves into rainwater
SO2 + H2O ---> H2SO3 (sulfurous acid)
Fossil fuels are hydrocarbons containing hydrogen and carbon.

Freagra Samplach don "Anseo i lar an gleanna"
I thought of this off the top of my head the other day
TEAMA : Stair na hEireann
Rinne mé staidear ar an dán "Anseo i lar an gleanna". Scriobh Sean Mac Fheorais ag an dán seo.Roghnaigh mé an teama Stair na hEireann mar, I mo thuairim, Tá a lán rudaí sa dán seo madir leis an stair na hEireann, Ar dtús, Insítear sinn go bhfuil "Bhí an taifreann léite is gach rud deanta" agus gur chuala na daoine an glao ag teacht i a dtreo, ceapann na daoine go bhfuil na capaill ach tá siad mícheart, Is é na saighduirí sasanaigh ag teach chun an sagart a mharú.
Agus Tá an seanfhear ag dul go dtí an sagart agus míníonn sé cónas atá sé sean agus go bhfuil an sagart óg, iarrann an seanfear ag an tsagart má tá cead ag an seanfear go bhfuil eadaí a mhalartú leis an seanfhear, insíonn an seanfear an sagart go bhfuill gá agat chun dul i bhfolach roinnt áit slán saibhailté agus ansin, Cuardaíonn na saighduirí an seanfhear sna eadaí sagairt agus crochann na saighduirí an seanfhear an crann caol ard.
Usáideann an filé friotal shimplí agus iomanna beo chun teama a chur ós ár gcomhair. Tugann an filé cuntas mhaith dúinn madir leis an stair na Éireann, Míníonn sé cónas a bhí an saol in Éireann an dáinsearach don sagairt agus nach raibh cead ag na sagairt chun aifreann a rá.
Please excuse any grammatical errors as we haven't done declensions or anything of the sort yet Also this isn't as such a sample answer but one I got an A for on the Scéim Marcála0 -
Sample Answer for English[/B]
Question : From a play you have studied choose a scene that highlights the qualities of the principal character, Explain how these qualities are revealed in this scene.(30)
Once again, Not exactly a Sample answer just one I got an A for
The play I have studied is Julius Caesar by the English playwright William Shakespeare, Brutus is the principal character whos qualities are highlighted in Act II Scene I. In this scene we are shown Brutus with a troubled mind, much similar to a battlefield, this is shown when Brutus explains how he is unable to sleep,"I would it were my fault to sleep so soundly". This conveys how Brutus would desire to be the one always sleeping instead of Lucius.
Brutus also has a great love for Rome as is shown when he expresses his desire to kill the spirit of Caesar and leave the man untouched,"O, that we then could come by Caesars spirit and not dismember Caesar" This highlights the fact that he has no desire to spill Caesars blood but if it stops him from essentially destroying Rome, Brutus is willing to do it, In a way, that speech highlights Brutus' willingness to do whatever is needed to keep Rome glorious and free of corruption and tyrancy.
Brutus is an Idealist,where everything is perfect and he has a belief that there are certain ways of doing things et cetera. Cassius however, is a realist, he sees the world the way it is,not in the idealistic view of Brutus, this difference is most evident when they talk about killing Mark Antony, Brutus is clearly disgusted by the idea of more bloodshed because Brutus thinks that he isn't killing the man Caesar but only his ambition, so as far as Brutus is concerned he isn't killing anyone, whereas Cassius insists on killing Mark Antony as he thinks he will betray them later on, but Brutus thinks differently and this conveys his one flaw, he is a bad judge of character, much like Mark Antony himself,Brutus thinks he will be not trouble at all ass "he is given to sports, to wildness and much company". Brutus dismisses him as nothing more than a playboy.
We are shown Brutus is also very Honourable and honest, much unlike Cassius who could be described as a "Shrewd Contriver", much like his description of Mark Antony, but it is very ironic when Cassius suggests swearing an oath, "Let us swear our resolution" and Brutus totally disagrees saying "Swear Cowards, priests and men cautelous" but Cassius is actually quite cautelous and sneaky in himself, this could imply that Brutus is calling Cassius cautelous and knows he only has his personal interests at heart but generally we are given the view that Brutus is too blinded by Idealism to see Cassius' and the other conspirators ideals.
Brutus is also very naive not to see the rest of the conspirators ideals. Brutus comes across, finally as a well respected man by the conspirators,"but what of Cicero shall we sound him?", and Brutus replies "O, Name him not" and then all the conspirators instantly comply with all and any of Brutus' demands.
Any tips/constructive criticism is appreciated :P0 -

Babies
Protein- babies don’t need food for the first 4-6 months except of milk which is a good source of HBV protein which is needed for growth and repair, heat and energy and production of hormones enzymes and antibodies
Fat- skimmed milk is unsuitable for babies as it lacks fat, therefore wont insulate the body, protect delicate organs, produce heat and energy, give a feeling of fullness . Skimmed milk also lacks fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, K, used to prevent dry lining tissues, retarded growth, night blindness, osteoporosis/rickets, anaemia and clotting problems
Carbohydrates- a baby doesn’t need carbohydrates for the first 4-6 months,they are slowly introduced during weening in the form of pureed vegetables these are a source of dietary fibre. Potatoes and rusks are also introduced as a source of starch
Vitamins- after 6 months vitamin c drinks are introduced for general health and absorption of iron
Minerals- babies need lots of calcium for healthy bones, after 6 months they need iron rich foods to prevent anaemia
Children
Carbohydrates - lots of fibre is needed and can be maintained from vegetables, lots of fibre prevents constapation.
Protein- children need plenty of protein for growth and production of hormones and enzymes, these are obtained from meats eggs pulses of tvp.
Fats- fats should be restricted as too much leads to obesity and heart problems, however some fat is needed for insulation, protection of delicate organs for heat and energy and to provide fat soluble vitamins A,D,E,K.
Vitamins- vitamins A and D are needed for calcium and iron absorption and are found in carrots and fish, citrus fruits will provide vitamin c for prevention of scurvy.
Minerals- calcium is vital for healthy bones and teeth whole milk should remain as their main drink for calcium. Iron is also needed for prevention of anaemia, it is found in red meat and dark green vegetables0
