Answer 1

1. Basal metabolism is the energy spent to keep the body functioning at rest. Jillian needs a minimum of 1,400 kilocalories to support body functions, such as the work of her heart, lungs, and brain.

2. Physical activity means the movement of the body that uses energy. David burns 250 kilocalories raking the leaves in his yard.

3. Thermic effect of food is a specific dynamic action. It is the amount of energy expenditure above the basal metabolic rate due to the cost of processing food for use and storage. Sherry's body uses 100 kilocalories to digest, absorb, and process the calories from her day's food intake.

4. Adaptive thermogenesis is the production of heat in response to environmental changes in temperature and diet which leads to metabolic inefficiency. Linda's constant fidgeting burns 200 kilocalories throughout the day.
