Briefly discuss why the mass specific
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- According to Kleiber’s law, for the vast majority of animals, an animal’s metabolic rate is proportional to m 0.75, where m is the animal’s mass. When we plot the graph of the common logarithm of the mass on the horizontal axis and the common logarithm of the metabolic rate on the vertical axis, we get a straight line. Explain why the graph is a straight line. What is the slope of the line?Explain three factors that affect an animal’s metabolic rate.Discuss that an adult animal consumed 50 kcal of food. 5 kcal have been excreted in urine and feces. Where did the remaining 45 kcal eventually go?
- Describe the glucose oxidation equation and use it to explain why animals are inefficient systems.Discuss why 200kg Pacific halibut and 200kg Dall’s porpoise differ in their mass-specific metabolic rates.An adult animal consumed 50 kcal of food. 5 kcal have been excreted in urine and feces. Where did the remaining 45 kcal eventually go?
- Mention and briefly explain three factors that affect the metabolic rate of humans.Discuss the relative effectiveness of dieting and exercise in losing weight noting that most athletic activities consume food energy at a rate of 400 to 500W while a single cup of yogurt can contain 1360KJ (325 kcal) specifically is it likely that exercise alone will be sufficient to lose weight? You may wish to consider that regular exercise may increase the metabolic rate, whereas protracted dieting may reduce itAlthough adults synthesize large amounts of ATP daily, their body weight, structure, and composition do not change significantly during this period. Explain this apparent contradiction.
