Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the rate of energy expenditure per unit time by endothermic animals at rest. It is reported in energy units per unit time...

Abnormal basal metabolic rate refers to a high or low basal metabolic rate (BMR). It has numerous causes, both physiological (part of the body's normal...

Metabolic age is calculated by comparing one's basal metabolic rate to the average of one's chronological age group. All the components in the body require...

physiological homeostasis and biological equilibrium. RMR differs from basal metabolic rate (BMR) because BMR measurements must meet total physiological equilibrium...

Harris-Benedict principle) is a method used to estimate an individual's basal metabolic rate (BMR). The estimated BMR value may be multiplied by a number that...

sulfide as a nutrient, yet this gas is poisonous to animals. The basal metabolic rate of an organism is the measure of the amount of energy consumed by...

to the total number of smallest tubules. Thus, if B denotes the basal metabolic rate, Q the total fluid flow, and N the number of minimal tubules, B ∝...

continuous basal metabolic rate to maintain normal function. The energetic cost of walking itself is therefore best understood by subtracting basal metabolic rate...

discovery of Max Kleiber's law in 1932. Kleiber found that an organism's basal metabolic rate could be predicted by taking 3/4 the power of the organism's body...

the basal metabolic rate. In bodybuilding, athletes wishing to reduce body fat percentage use thermogenics in order to attempt to increase their basal metabolic...

food energy. Energy consumption in the body is a product of the basal metabolic rate and the physical activity level. The physical activity level are...

estimate their total energy expenditure. In combination with the basal metabolic rate, it can be used to compute the amount of food energy a person needs...

thermogenesis (DIT), is the amount of energy expenditure above the basal metabolic rate due to the cost of processing food for use and storage. Heat production...

The metabolic equivalent of task (MET) is the objective measure of the ratio of the rate at which a person expends energy, relative to the mass of that...

balance equation: Calories consumed (food, drink) = Calories expended (basal metabolic rate, physical activity, thermogenic effect of food, acute illness) Outcome:...

insignificant. The energetic requirements of a body are composed of the basal metabolic rate (BMR) and the physical activity level (ERAT, exercise-related activity...

The Schofield Equation is a method of estimating the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of adult men and women published in 1985. This is the equation used by...

Basal Anatomy: In the direction of the base. Antonym apical. Physiology: Lowest sustained level or minimum level required, as in basal metabolic rate...

Two measures are typically obtained: standard (SMR) or basal metabolic rate (BMR) and maximal rate (VO2max). SMR is measured while the animal is at rest...

case of overdose. Researchers noticed its effect on raising the basal metabolic rate in accidental exposure and developed it as one of the first weight...

with minimal metabolic regulation within a range of ambient temperatures called the thermal neutral zone (TNZ). Within the TNZ the basal rate of heat production...

maintain an equilibrium (basal metabolic rate) between requirement and delivery of oxygen and nutrients. The normal SA node firing rate is affected by autonomic...

relative brain size is often seen in insular species as this reduces basal metabolic rate without increases in predation risk. For example, the endocranial...

body mostly depends on oxidative type 1 fibres, physical training, basal metabolic rate, and eating habits. Different levels of resting muscle glycogen are...

calories than they are expending. Humans expend energy through their basal metabolic rate, the thermic effect of food, non-exercise activity thermogenesis...

Reliability Must Run, a contract in an electrical market Resting metabolic rate, see basal metabolic rate Revelstoke Mountain Resort, a Canadian ski resort located...

vocalizations than with visual signals. Lemurs have a relatively low basal metabolic rate, and as a result may exhibit dormancy such as hibernation or torpor...

respiratory coefficient) is a dimensionless number used in calculations of basal metabolic rate (BMR) when estimated from carbon dioxide production. It is calculated...

of great heat or cold. In fact, with a very few exceptions, their basal metabolic rate is determined by body size, irrespective of the climate in which...

compared to other animals. They exhibit a higher basal metabolic rate and can further increase their metabolic rate during strenuous activity. They usually have...
