Answer:

D. resting metabolic rate.

Explanation:

The Resting Metabolic Rate is the energy spent under conditions similar to basal energy expenditure that is defined as the minimum energy rate spent at 24 hours, corresponding to the energy spent to maintain the normal functioning of the body, such as breathing, blood circulation, blood body temperature, among others.

In this case, we can say that the number of calories needed to breathe, pump blood, grow hair and be alive is called the resting metabolic rate budget.

many americans ingest too many fats, sugar, salt, and high caloric foods and too little fiber and othe nutrients. What is the pr
vampirchik [111]
I can think of some reasons

1) Foods with too many fats, sugar, salt, and high caloric foods, generally taste better than other foods like veggies or other healthy options. We naturally have a sweet tooth as a survival instinct, so we naturally crave those types of foods and satisfies our Reward System in our brains 

2) Think of fast food vs. Grocery shopping. Which is cheaper? Fast food is simply cheaper, faster, and more convenient than cooking something healthy at home or eating with family. Americans are so busy and many low-income families simply cannot afford to eat healthily.

those are some reasons I hope this helps :)

In the United States, people who live in urban areas have a life expectancy ______ years longer than those who live in rural are
stiks02 [169]

Answer: 2.0 years

Explanation:

NOTE:

17% of the U.S. population lives in rural areas, while 83% in urban areas.

During the past 40 years, there is a consistent overall increase in U.S. life expectancy from 70.8 years in 1970 to 78.7 years in 2010. However, a decade ago, a study reveals the rural-urban gap widening from 0.4 years in 1969 through 1971 to 2.0 years in 2005 through 2009.

Study showed that 70% of the overall rural-urban gap in life expectancy and 54% of the life expectancy gap between the urban rich and rural poor in 2005 to 2009 are caused by accidents, cardiovascular disease, COPD and lung cancer.

A combination of factors likely accounts for this disparity. Compared to urban areas, rural areas have higher rates of both smoking and lung cancer, plus obesity, yet reduced access to health care services. Also, rural dwellers have a very low median family income, higher poverty rate and very few have college degrees.
