ENERGY Flashcards
total available nrg in food
gross nrg
nrg available to animal after metabolic processes of digest, absorp, excrete
net nrg
___% as heat, capture rest in ____ bond
55-60; high energy phosphate
amt nrg required to raise temp of 1g of H2O by 1 degree C
calorie
amt of nrg expended when 1 kg moved 1m by force of 1 newton
joule
what is gross nrg in foods?
heat of combustion, amt heat released when substance oxidized completely (bomb calorimeter)
gross nrg depend on:
1) proportion CHO, protein, fat
2) composition of individual CHO, ptn, fat
find GE value using ____ analysis
proximate
GE - fecal energy =
Digestible energy
nrg that is useful to animal
metabolizable energy
ME=
GE - fecal E - urinary E
for humans, ME=?
(GE - urinary E) x digestibility coefficients; Atwater fuel values
nrg expended to sustain life
basal metabolism
how to measure BMR?
1) direct (hard to do)
2) indirect (resp)
2 types of indirect calorimetry?
1) closed–>spirometer
2) open–>more precise than closed
