While you are sleeping, approximately between 30% and 70% of the energy your cells use is derived from fats, fats and proteins are the main source of energy and the percentage is going to depend on the type of body and metabolism.

The percentage of energy derived from fat while sleeping is <em><u>60-70 percent per day. </u></em>

Further explanation

Calories are units for measuring energy. The energy needed by the body to breathe, to take selfies (which can sometimes be dozens of times a day), fights with girlfriends, eat, and so on.

Fat is an element (compound) that exists in living things (humans, animals, and plants). Fat functions to maintain body temperature, protect internal organs and help the absorption of vitamins A, D, E, and K in our body.

It can be concluded that Calories are a unit of measuring energy, while fat is a compound whose measuring unit is grams. So, the forms of calories and fat are different. Fat is part of the food, while calories are the energy contained in the food.

There are three types of burning of calories in the body which are as follows:

  • Primary Combustion

Basal Metabolic Rate, to carry out its function so that we stay alive, all internal organs of the human body burn calories, including activities while sleeping. How many? An average of 60-70 percent of the total calories spent a day.

  • Second Burning

Digestion, which means the process of "transferring" nutrients and energy from food into the body. To digest food, we burn calories. How many? An average of 10-15 percent of the total energy spent a day.

  • Third Burning

To move, as small as, to high-intensity exercise, we burn calories. On average about 15-30 percent of the total energy, we spend a day.

So, for example, in one day you eat food with a total energy of 2,000 calories. Then it turns out that your BMR is 1,400 calories. Then to digest food, you spend 300 calories, and from exercise that day you spend 300 calories. That means the total energy you spend is 1,400 plus 300 plus 300 calories or 2,000 calories. This means you do not burn fat.

Johann gregor mendel's work in genetics focused on traits that exhibit discontinuous variation. what kind of traits are these?
kvasek [131]
Discontinuous variation is when a trait is seen in a population in two or more different forms and there is no continuation along a gradient. A good example that Mendel studied is flower color. The flowers  were either white or purple. There was no in between color. This is caused by an allele for purple or a lack of an allele for purple, which produces no pigment, or  white.
