University of Windsor Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry BIOC 3100-R-Fall 2023 Catabolic Assignment Submission date December 2, 2022 Duration 50 days (Approximately) Submit on or before Dec 04, 2023, 5:00 pm (Ontario Time) Total Marks: 10.0 Name: Dawson Carter Student# 110008012 Please answer all the questions. Submit this answer sheet with your Exercise sheet with signature. Question 1: What is the change in your weight from Oct 16, 2022 to Nov 30, 2022? 4.0 (based on signing sheet info), Please submit the signed sheet. Decreased: 3lbs ( 1360.777 g ¿ Question 2: Explain the result you got in Question 1. 1.25 453.59237g 1lbs 453.59237 g 1 lbs x ( 244 lbs 241 lbs ) 453.59237 g 1 lbs x 3 lbs x≈ 3 ( 453.59237 ) x≈ 1360.777 I lost 3 lbs whichequated ¿ 1360.777 g Question 3: This assignment involved a mild exercise for 45 days but every day without a break. What do you think is the advantage of this kind of exercise? 1.25 Engaging in mild exercise for 45 consecutive days without a break offers several advantages. This consistent routine establishes healthy habits, promoting a steady caloric expenditure that can contribute to weight management. The daily exercise enhances metabolism, boosts mood, and increases energy levels, fostering overall well-being. Additionally, the routine supports cardiovascular health, with the gentle nature of mild exercises reducing the risk of joint injury. Habit formation is a key outcome, making it likely that the exercise routine becomes a sustained part of one's lifestyle.
Question 4: What will be the status of your blood VLDL and HDL after one year if you carried out this assignment for one year without changing your caloric intake? Explain the reason for your answer. 1.25 Engaging in the year-long exercise assignment without altering caloric intake could potentially bring about favorable changes in blood lipid profiles, more specifically VLDL (Very Low-Density Lipoprotein) and HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) cholesterol levels. Regular, mild exercise can be linked to increased levels of HDL cholesterol, commonly referred to as "good cholesterol." HDL plays a crucial role in cardiovascular health by transporting excess cholesterol from the bloodstream to the liver for excretion, contributing to a reduction in the risk of heart disease. Additionally, the assignment's consistent physical activity component may have a positive impact on triglyceride levels, which are closely associated with VLDL cholesterol. Regular exercise is known to enhance triglyceride metabolism, leading to a potential decrease in the production and circulation of VLDL. This could contribute to a more favorable lipid profile overall, as elevated VLDL levels are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. However, it's crucial to recognize that my own individual responses to exercise can vary, and genetic factors, as well as other lifestyle choices, play a role in determining lipid profiles. Question 5: If you included one can of soft drink (150 Cal) in your daily food, what will be the weight gain in one year due to this dietary change despite your daily exercise for burning 100 Cal per day? Use 1 gram carb to 4 Calory formula. 1.25 If I lost 100g a day for 365 days and included one can of soft drink (1 year) x≈ 150 cal 365 days x≈ 54750 cals gained one year y ≈ 100 cal 365 days y ≈ 36500 calslost one year z≈ x y z≈ 54750 36500 z≈ 18250 cals gained one year 1 g 4 cal x g 18250 cal 4 x ≈ 18250 x≈ 4562.5 g gained one year 453.59237 g 1 lbs 4562.5 g x 453.59237 x ≈ 4562.5 x≈ 10.06 lbs gained one year if I were ¿ continuethe workout throughout the year drinkone soft drink aday, I would gain 10.06 lbs ( 4562.5 g )
Question 6. If you follow the same routine for one year (365 days), how much weight will be lost (or gained), if you did not change your eating behavior? Provide theoretical and practical values. Hint: Theoretically 100 Cal burning will lead to the loss of 25gram weight. 1.25 Practical 1360.777 glost 45 days x glost 365 days 45 x ≈ 496683.605 x≈ 11037.4134444 glost one year 453.59237 g 1 lbs 11037.4134444 g x 453.59237 x ≈ 11037.4134444 x≈ 24.33 lbslost one year , pratically ,I wouldlose 24.33 lbs ( 11037.4134444 g )∈ one year Theoretical Totalweight lost one year = ( xcals per day ) ( 365 days ) 100 cals ( 25 g ) Totalweight lost one year ≈ ( 100 cals per day ) ( 365 days ) 100 cals ( 25 g ) Totalweight lost one year ≈ ( 365 days )( 25 g ) Totalweight lost one year ≈ 9125 g 453.59237 g 1 lbs 9125 g x 453.59237 x ≈ 9125 x≈ 20.12 lbslost one year ,theoretically ,I would lose 20.12 lbs ( 9125 g )∈ one year
