A

1g at a velocity of 1 m/s

21
Q

Rate of O2 consumed is directly related to …?

A

Rate of energy produced

22
Q

Closed circuit spirometry describes…

A

breathe through mouthpiece, CO2 gets trapped, O2 consumed decrease O2 in spirometer, Change in volume is measured and O2 uptake is used to calculate EE

23
Q

Open circuit spirometry describes….

A
  • measured breathing ambient air

- EE is measured from O2 and CO2 content of inspired and expired air

24
Q

Indirect calorimetry…?

A
  • Douglas bag

- Breath-by-breath systems: measure volume at mouth piece, small gas sample is collected at every expiration

25
Q

A

40-75%

26
Q

What percentage of energy expenditure is diet induced thermogenesis using?

A

10%

27
Q

Resting metabolic rate is…

A

Energy required for normal functions and homeostasis under resting conditions

28
Q

The largest component of energy expenditure is….

A

Resting metabolic rate (60-75%)

29
Q

Factors can influence your RMR(3)?

A
  • sympathetic nervous system
  • thyroid hormone activity
  • sodium potassium pump activity
30
Q

liver, gut, brain, kidney uses ___% of energy

A

75% (even though only 10% BW)

31
Q

Skeletal muscle uses ____% of energy

A

20% (and 40% BW)

32
Q

Does resting metabolic rate increase or decrease with age?

A

Decrease

33
Q

Men have ____ RMR’s than women

A

higher (due to mass)

34
Q

Charles law:

A
  • increase temp causes increase molecular movement

- gas expands with heat

35
Q

Boyles law:

A
  • inverse relationship with pressure

- decreased volume = increase pressure
