Answer: The correct answer would be 112.5 pounds
Explanation:
Let us first covert the pound into grams. We know that 1 pound is equal to 453.59 grams.
Thus, 50 pound of fat = 50 x 453.59 = 22,679.5 grams.
We know that, 1 gram of fat releases 9 Kcal of energy. Thus, total energy produced by 22679.5 grams = 9 x 22679.5 = 204,115.5 Kcal
Glycogen is carbohydrate thus, it will produce 4 Kcal of energy per gram.
Thus, 4 x C = 204,115.5 (where C is the grams of glycogen)
⇒ C =
⇒ C = 51,028.875 grams
Using 1 pound = 453.59 grams, we con convert 51,028.875 grams into pounds:
453.59 = 1
1 =
51,028.875 =
= 112.5 pounds
Thus, 112.5 pound of glycogen would be needed to produce the same amount of energy as produced by 50 pounds of fat.
Answer: A scientific hypothesis is the initial building block in the scientific method. Many describe it as an "educated guess," based on prior knowledge and observation. While this is true, the definition can be expanded. A hypothesis also includes an explanation of why the guess may be correct
