a.
water balance/osmoregulation/transmit impulses along nerves/muscle contraction/blood pressure/ sodium potassium pump/sodium-glucose cotransporter / sodium-amino acid cotransporter
b.
whole milk because it contains more fat/energy
Reason is required.
c.
a. skimmed milk has more calcium so better
b. both milks have the same amount of vitamin D so no difference between the two.
Skimmed milk alone is worth no marks. Two reasons are required for both marks.
