to be a consistent pre-cursor to many metabolic diseases‚ such as obesity‚ fatty liver disease‚ atherosclerosis‚ insulin resistance‚ type II diabetes‚ degenerative disorders such as dementia‚ airway disease and some cancers.1 The relationship between diet‚ and more specifically refined carbohydrates‚ and chronic inflammation has been of high interest in the media in recent years. This interest could have a lot to do with the alarming rate that these metabolic diseases are growing. For example‚

Experiment Results Predict Question: Predict Question 1: Make a prediction about the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of the remaining rats compared with the BMR of the normal rat you just measured. Your answer : b. The hypophysectomized (Hypox) rat’s BMR will be higher than the normal rat’s BMR. Predict Question 2: What do you think will happen after you inject thyroxine into the three rats? Your answer : c. The hypophysectomized rat will become hyperthryoidic and develop a goiter. Predict Question 3:

Describe metabolic syndrome and its potential life-threatening health problems. -Metabolic syndrome is a complex of several pathophysiologic conditions marked by obesity‚ cardiovascular changes‚ and significant insulin resistance due to increased adipose tissue (Dyer and Gould‚ 2011). Metabolic syndrome and some of its potential life-threatening health problems include but are not limited to heart disease‚ stroke‚ and diabetes. Metabolic syndrome is preventable and reversible (Web). What serious

the mass specific metabolic rate (MSMR). With the comparison between mice in room and cold temperatures‚ mice held in cold temperatures had a higher MSMR (t= 3.23‚ df= 16‚ p= 0.005). The MSMR of cockroaches held in cold temperatures resulted higher than cockroaches at room temperature (t= 1.87‚ df= 15‚ p= 0.081). Also‚ the mice held at both temperatures had a higher MSMR than the cockroaches at both temperatures. Since mice are endotherms‚ they would have a higher metabolic rate at colder temperatures

Compare the baseline metabolic rates for the thyroidectomized rat and the normal rat and explain your results. The thyroidectomized rat had a lower baseline metabolic rate beause the removal of its thyroid gland prevented it from producing any thyroxine. 3.

and compared to the rates at a colder temperature. Just as expected‚ oxygen was consumed more rapidly at a lower temperature. This would lead to the conclusion that more oxygen is required to maintain homeostasis in a system. Introduction Metabolic rate is a measurement of energy used by an animal within a specific period of time. This can be measured in a number of ways: recording an animal’s heat loss with a calorimeter‚ determining the amount of carbon dioxide an animal produces‚ recording
