What else can I help you with?
Adaptive thermogenesis is defined as?
the heat energy expended in response to changes in ambient temperature and the digestion and absorption of food
How does water induced thermogenesis affect the body's metabolism and energy expenditure?
Water-induced thermogenesis is the process by which the body burns calories to heat up water that has been consumed. This can increase metabolism and energy expenditure, leading to potential weight loss.
What is the most variable part of energy expenditure and the factor that you have the most control over?
Exercise-induced thermogenesis
Is proteins the nutrient that is greatest food induced thermogenesis?
Yes, proteins have the highest food-induced thermogenesis compared to carbohydrates and fats. This means that the body expends more energy to digest, absorb, and metabolize protein-rich foods. Approximately 20-30% of the calories from protein are used during this process, making it a significant contributor to overall energy expenditure. Consequently, a higher protein intake can aid in weight management and support metabolic health.
What is the name for the minimum energy expended to keep a resting awake body alive and represents a total of 60 percent to 70 percent of total energy expenditure?
Basal Metabolism (BMR)
What tissues generate a lot of heat?
Brown adipose tissue is a type of fat tissue that generates heat through a process called thermogenesis. Muscle tissue also generates heat during activity due to the energy expended during muscle contractions.
What is the primary reson fro not including the value for adaptive thermogenesis when calculating energy requirements?
The primary reason for not including the value for adaptive thermogenesis when calculating energy requirements is that it is difficult to accurately measure and predict. Adaptive thermogenesis refers to the changes in energy expenditure that occur in response to changes in energy intake, making it a dynamic and variable component that is hard to quantify in a standard energy estimation equation.
What is the power expended when a barbell is lifted 2.2m in 2 seconds?
The power during the lift is (weight of the barbell in Newtons)/4.4 watts.Note:Power is not "expended". Energy is. Power is the rate at which energy is expended.
What is thermogenesis?
Adaptive Thermogenesis: This can be defined as the regulated production of heat in response to environmental changes in temperature and diet, resulting in metabolic inefficiency. For example, shivering when we are cold uses energy and this is an example of adaptive thermogenesis. (Alexander Bowring 24 / 04 / 2008)

Can you achieve 100 percent efficency with a lever and fulcrum?
Not if you consider the energy expended to grip or engage the lever--this does account for a minimum amount of lost efficiency
What does expended mean?
It means the same as spent. Money which is expended is spent. A battery which is expended is spent; it has been used up.
