What are the answer options
Doing strength training to build muscle. This helps build muscle mass, and muscle tissue burns more calories -- even when you're at rest -- than body fat.
Doing aerobic exercise.
Drinking caffeine. Caffeine is a stimulant, and stimulants tend to increase the calories you burn. It gives the body the impression that it has more energy, which means you would be moving more.
Drinking water. Drinking water can help burn more calories. Drinking cold water burns more calories because your body is going to warm up and make it the same temperature as your body.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Body Mass Index is not a superior way to measure a person's health because<u> it doesn't actually measure the amount of fat in the body.</u> For example, a person with a high BMI doesn't necessarily mean that his body composition is mostly made up of fat. It could be that he's muscular that's why his BMI is high (just like the healthy athletes).
On the other hand, "body composition" (like body fat percentage) is a more reliable measure of one's health because<em> it tells you exactly what your body is made of or composed of. </em>If a person has high fat percentage, then he's more likely to get certain types of diseases.
Answer:
D. Proteins that are consumed in the diet are absorbed as individual amino acids following digestion
Explanation:
Protein digestion begins from stomach and continues in small intestine too. In stomach, enzyme pepsin is responsible for breakdown of proteins into smaller fragments. The acidic environment created by hydrochloric acid facilitates this process.
Protein fragments move from stomach to small intestine where the main breakdown occurs. Pancreas releases two enzymes, trypsin and chymotrypsin in small intestine. These two enzymes along with some enzymes secreted by the small intestine breakdown the small protein fragments into individual amino acids which are finally absorbed via villi in small intestine.
Answer:
The amino acids in protein help with wound healing and tissue regeneration. Protein can also help with strength and energy following surgery. Lean meats such as chicken, turkey, pork and seafood are excellent sources of protein. You can also get protein from eggs, nuts, beans and tofu.
