From what they decompose, it is turned into energy through form (s) of respiration.
Answer:
1. When the number of Calories a person consumes is equal to the number of Calories he or she burns in a day, that person's body is in <em>energy balance </em>
2. Someone who is in <em>positive energy balance</em> eats more Calories in a day than he or she burns.
3. <em>Negative energy balance</em> occurs when the number of Calories a person burns in a day is greater than the amount he or she consumes.
4. Used to help assess overall health, <em>Body mass index</em> is the ratio of a person's body weight to the square of his or her height.
5. The <em>basal metabolic rate</em> is the amount of energy the body uses in order to perform its basic physiological functions.
6. The <em>thermic effect of food</em> refers to the number of Calories burned in order to digest food and absorb, transport, metabolize, and store the nutrients the body needs
7. A person's <em>lean body mass</em> refers to his or her total body mass minus fat mass.
8. The <em>energy cost of physical activity</em> refers to all energy expended on body movement above basal levels.
Explanation:
the metabolism is a set of chemical reactions that take place in our cells. Our metabolism converts the food we eat into the energy we need for every action we do.
<span>The nurse should see first the client with new-onset of
shortness of breath (SOB) and a history of pulmonary edema. The rationale
behind this is, in light of such a history, SOB could indicate that
fluid-volume overload has once again developed. The client with a fever and who
is diaphoretic is at risk for insufficient fluid volume as a result of loss of
fluid through the skin, but this client is not the priority. Remember the rule
of assessment of the ABCs — airway, breathing, and circulation — which means
that the client suffering from SOB should take superiority over the other
clients on the unit. This client’s condition could progress to respiratory
arrest if the client were not assessed instantly on the basis of the signs and
symptoms.</span>
