In proximate analysis pyrogallol is used for analysis of which element?
its answer is oxygen because pyrogallol absorbs oxygen so used to measure amount of oxygen in any substance
How the metabolic rate of an animal can be determined by measuring its rate of oxygen consumption.?
Oxygen is needed in ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation.
What does an oxygen meter measure?
An oxygen meter measures the percentage of oxygen in the air being tested.
Which gas is used when fossil fuels burn carbon dioxide or oxygen?
Oxygen is used and CO2 is produced.
How does an oxygen meter measure the amount of oxygen from the pulse in a finger?
An oxygen meter measures the amount of oxygen from the pulse in a finger by being placed on an individuals fingertip which causes two wavelengths to be able to pass through the individual to a photo detector.
Oxygen consumption can be used as a measure of metabolic rate because oxygen is?
oxygen is used for cellular respiration and is used more when metabolic rate increases
Does the oxygen consumption of a cell mirror the oxygen consumption of an animal?
yes
How does oxygen consumption change when adding succinate to mitochondria?
oxygen consumption increases
May be used to calculate the amount of energy expended by the body?
Oxygen consumption
Suppose that a scientist is simultaneously measuring both the amount of oxygen and the amount of glucose that is being used by cells. If a chemical were added that inhibited the electron transport chain?
Oxygen consumption decreases while glucose consumption increases
What does MET measure?
Oxygen used by the body
What does excess postexercise oxygen consumption represent?
the difference between the amount of oxygen needed for totally aerobic muscle activity and the amount actually used
In proximate analysis pyrogallol is used for analysis of which element?
its answer is oxygen because pyrogallol absorbs oxygen so used to measure amount of oxygen in any substance
Oxygen consumption is related to exercise intensity in a generally fashion?
oxygen consumption is nearly linear with power output or running velocity
What is oxygen consumption?
It is a measure of how much oxygen you need to breath to burn the sugars in your body in order to provide energy for you to function. Among several factors that help determine this are size and how much activity is taking place.
What are the 3 steps to deliver oxygen to the cells?
oxygenation, oxygen delivery,oxygen consumption
How is a pulse oximeter used?
A pulse oximeter is used to measure the oxygen content of your blood. Most modern day pulse oximeters fit over the tip of your finger and measure the oxygen saturation indirectly.
