What happens to metabolism if calorie intake remains below BMR for a significant period of time?

Biology

Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

BMR is short for the basal metabolic rate. It is the rate of expenditure of the energy per unit time by the body at the time of rest. In other words it can be said that it is the the total amount of calories required to keep the body to do the necessary vital functions even  in rest. Some of the activities which are regulated in the body even the body in the rest are breathing, control of the body temperature, control of blood circulation, and contraction of muscles all these activities require the expenditure of calories.  

If the calorie intake becomes severely low than the basal metabolic rate will also get lower the body will not function as it should be.

In the cell, energy that drives endergonic reactions is often obtained from
IRISSAK [1]

Answer: B) energy released from exergonic reactions.  

Explanation:

Cell metabolism is the set of reactions that occur in the cellular environment to synthesize or degrade biomolecules to produce energy. Synthesis metabolism of biomolecules is known as anabolic (anabolism) and catabolic degradation (catabolism).

Endergonic reaction (product has more energy than reagents) and requires energy to occur. Anabolism occurs when the cell has sufficient energy or substrate. Catabolism, in turn, occurs in situations in which the body needs energy, such as between meals and fasting.

The reactions of anabolism and catabolism are opposite but occur in an articulated manner, allowing the maximization of available energy. Thus, while catabolism occurs spontaneously, an exergonic reaction with ATP production, anabolism is non-spontaneous, or endergonic, requiring energy to occur. In other words energy that drives endergonic reactions is often obtained from B) energy released from exergonic reactions.
