Describe two ways the body uses energy from food what proportion is used for each purpose?
The body utilizes energy from food primarily for two purposes: basal metabolic rate (BMR) and physical activity. Approximately 60-75% of the energy is used for BMR, which supports essential functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production. The remaining 25-40% is allocated for physical activity, encompassing all forms of movement, from exercise to daily tasks. This distribution can vary based on individual activity levels and metabolic factors.
