Aerobic metabolism‚ uses fats‚ proteins and carbohydrates that are oxidized and turned into carbon dioxide and water. Anaerobic metabolism‚ uses only carbohydrates and enters the fluid‚ or cytoplasm‚ of the cell and is turned into lactic acid. Aerobic exercises are running‚ biking‚ and swimming‚ whereas anaerobic exercises are sprinting‚ jumping‚ weight training. 3. My activity is considered

Introduction: Basal Metabolic Rate has been defined as the minimum amount of energy needed by an animal to maintain the basic functions of survival (such as breathing). Several factors including age‚ gender‚ weight‚ and exercise affect the BMR. "BMR increases with increasing muscle tissue" therefore‚ exercising will enhance BMR while with increasing age‚ BMR is reduced (Scott‚ 2008). Also gender differences exist between males and females; it has been shown that males have higher BMRs

Do you get the exact same results each time? How do the results compare to each other and to your prediction? What factors might contribute to susceptibility to the disease? 2. If the contagion rate is calculated as the number of new cases per day per total population‚ what would the average contagion rate be for Kold? Unlike some of the other interactive labs‚ this model has some randomness built in to reflect the real spread of a disease‚ which is a matter of probabilities. Despite this variability

Total number of births in the US (2008) = 4‚247‚694 Total population US = 307‚006‚550 Birth Rate = ___________ (per 1000) Death Rate Dividing the total number of deaths in a year by the population and multiplying by 1000. Death rate UK (2008) = _______________ per 1000 people Death rate in Botswana (2008)

Investigative Quest The purpose of this experiment was to find out how music affects the female human heart rate. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that female resting heart rate will increase as the music tempo increases. If the tempo is slower the heart rate will stay at resting heart rate or decrease. Variables The variables used in this experiment were: • The tempo of the music. • The subject’s heart rate. • The subject’s age. Controls The controls used in this experiment were: • How long the subject

Introduction The heart is an extremely important organ in the human body‚ and it must be able to adjust the heart rate for when a person is resting or for when a person is running. Heart rate is defined as the number of heartbeats per unit of time‚ usually per minute (Medicine-Net). The heart rate is based on the number of contractions of the ventricles. The pulse is defined as a bulge of an artery from waves of blood that course through the blood vessels each time the heart beats (Medicine-Net)

Factors that affect exchange rates. Like any price‚ the exchange rate deviates from the cost basis - the purchasing power of currencies – under the influence of supply and demand of currency. The ratio of the supply and demand depends on several factors. It reflects connections with other economic categories - cost‚ price‚ money‚ interest‚ balance of payments‚ etc. There is a complex of interweaving and nomination of decisive factors. Among them are the following. • 1.The rate of inflation. The ratio

metabolic rate are investigated. Hypothesis: With the information given‚ we tested the effects of given hormones on the body by using virtual rats. We expect to see a greater metabolic rate for the normal rat as opposed to the thyroidectomized rat. The hypox rat is expected to have the lowest metabolic rate. Metabolic rate will increase once thyroxine is injected. TSH will increase the metabolic rate of all the rats with
