The right answer is to measure the amount of released carbon dioxide.
The carbon dioxide exhaled by the lungs can reflect the energy consumed by the body since it comes from the degradation of glucose which is the main energy substrate. And this is a better indicator of energy consumption than measuring heart rate because it can be inflected by several factors.
A is false because glucose is not found in the urine, except in the case of diabetes mellitus.
C is false because the consumption of calories does not mean that we will directly use it.
D is wrong because perspiration is independent of energy consumption, this is a way to cool the body after exercise.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
Includes at least two groups, one of which does not receive the experimental treatment. (B)
Explanation:
A controlled experiment is made up of at least two groups of participants (subjects). One group (the test group) receives the experimental treatment, which can be an intervention or a new drug to be tested etc, and the effect of the treatment on the subjects is measured, while the second group of similar subjects also known as the control group acts as a baseline and do not receive the treatment or intervention. They act as a baseline to ensure that the change observed in the treatment group was brought about as a result of the treatment.
<em>Note that repeating the experiment several times does not ensure accuracy of the result, rather it ensures reliability of the results hence option D is not correct</em>
