The categories  of energy expenditure include the following:

  • Resting metabolic rate - This is the total number of calories burned when your body is completely at rest and accounts for 60-75 percent
  • Thermic effect of feeding - This happens during feeding in which the metabolic rate increases and heat is produced and accounts for 5-15 percent
  • The thermic effect of activity -  the amount of energy burned during all physical activity and accounts for 15-30 percent.

<h3>What is Energy expenditure?</h3>

These are the processes which involves how energy is used or spent. The categories are mentioned above with their appropriate explanations.

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The inside is becoming positive.

Explanation:

The membrane potential may be defined as the difference in the electric potential between the outside and inside of the cell. This potential difference is important for the conduction of nerve impulse.

The depolarization of the cell occur due to the movement of sodium ions inside the cell. The depolarization of the cell changes the membrane potential from -70mV to +30mV. The inside of the cell become more positive than outside of the cell.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
