  2. Resting metabolic rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resting_metabolic_rate

    In the early 1970s, computer technology enabled on-site data processing, some real-time analysis, and even graphical displays of metabolic variables, such as O 2, CO 2, and air-flow, thereby encouraging academic institutions to test accuracy and precision in new ways.

  3. Schofield equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schofield_equation

    The Schofield Equation is a method of estimating the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of adult men and women published in 1985. [1]This is the equation used by the WHO in their technical report series. [2]

  4. Metabolic equivalent of task - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_equivalent_of_task

    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 person, while performing some specific physical activity compared to a reference, currently set by convention at an absolute 3.5 mL of oxygen per kg per minute, which is the energy expended when sitting quietly by a reference individual, chosen ...

    The test score is the time taken on the test, in minutes. This can also be converted to an estimated maximal oxygen uptake score using the calculator below and the following formulas, where the value "T" is the total time completed (expressed in minutes and fractions of a minute e.g. 9 minutes 15 seconds = 9.25 minutes).

  6. Energy expenditure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_expenditure

    Resting metabolic rate generally composes 60 to 75 percent of TDEE. [1] Because adipose tissue does not use much energy to maintain, fat free mass is a better predictor of metabolic rate. A taller person will typically have less fat mass than a shorter person at the same weight and therefore burn more energy.

  7. Basal metabolic rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basal_metabolic_rate

    Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the rate of energy expenditure per unit time by endothermic animals at rest. [1] It is reported in energy units per unit time ranging from watt (joule/second) to ml O 2 /min or joule per hour per kg body mass J/(h·kg).

    The Swiss women said Bern violated their right to life by failing to cut emissions in line with a pathway that limits global warming to 1.5C (2.7F) to fend off the most severe consequences of ...

  9. Rate-of-living theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-of-living_theory

    However, the ratio of resting metabolic rate to total daily energy expenditure can vary between 1.6 and 8.0 between species of mammals. Animals also vary in the degree of coupling between oxidative phosphorylation and ATP production , the amount of saturated fat in mitochondrial membranes , the amount of DNA repair , and many other factors that ...
