A

VO2 in L/min

35
Q

what is the term defined as “oxidative metabolism of glucose and fat uses O2 and produces CO2 and water”

A

indirect calorimetry

36
Q

energy expenditure can be estimated by measuring what two variables at the mouth ?

A

VO2 and CO2 inspired and VO2 and CO2 expired

37
Q

what is the formula for indirect calorimetry rate ?

A

difference in volume divided by time = rate

38
Q

what are the two formulas we are “familiar” with ?

A

oxygen uptake (L/min) and carbon dioxide production (L/min)

39
Q

what is Douglas bag VO2 ?

A

calculation for estimating O2 uptake (VO2) during exercise in normoxia

40
Q

to estimate the amount of energy used by the body what is necessary ?

A

to know the type of food substrate being oxidized

41
Q

what does the amount of O2 used during metabolism depend on ?

A

the type of fuel being oxidized

42
Q

FILL IN THE BLANK

we can use VCO2 and VO from indirect calorimetry to determine __________ and __________

A

substrate utilization and quantify energy expenditure

43
Q

between fat and carbs which require more oxygen for ATP ?

A

more ATP per oxygen in glucose

44
Q

between fats and carbs which would you prefer in regards to oxygen consumption ?

A

prefer carbs since you need more O2 to break up fatty acids

45
Q

what is the average RER for fats ?

A

0.70

46
Q

what is the average RER for carbs ?

A

1.00

47
Q

what is better for RER in regards to oxygen ? higher or lower number ?

A

higher number (the more its being oxidized)

48
Q

between fats and carbs which is the less efficient storage of energy ?

A

carbs

49
Q

between carbs and fats which is more kcal dense ?

A

fat

50
Q

between carbs and fats which is less kcal dense ?

A

carbs

Q

what does RER stand for ?

respiratory exchange ration

53
Q

what is RQ ?

A

  • VO2 varies
  • steady state = keeping a steady pace (marathon ex)
62
Q

what scenario is it when

“increases CO2 output in excess of metabolically produce CO2; increased VCO2”

hyperventilation

what scenario is it when

“buffering of H ions via bicarbonate yields additional, non metabolic CO2 which is also breathed out at the mouth ; increased VCO2”

A

metabolic acidosis

64
Q

what scenario is it when

“VCO2 takes longer to attain steady-state compared to VO2 at exercise onset; temporal distortion”

A

non-steady-state exercise

65

“if CHO nutrition is poor and glycogen stores low, longer exercise duration could result in a amino acid oxidation”

A

prolonged exercise

66
Q

what scenario is RER > RQ ?

A

hyperventilation

67
Q

what scenario is RER > 1.0 ?

A

metabolic acidosis

non-steaduy-state exercise

69
Q

what scenario is RER doesn’t equal RQ ?

A

prolonged exercise

70
Q

what is the term used to define

“the rate at which the body used energy or the rate at which ATP must be resynthesized to satisfy bodily demand”

A

metabolic rate

71
Q

what two things work interchangeably? if were measuring ____ ; were measuring _________

A

VO2 and metabolic rate

72
Q

what does BMR stand for ?

A

basal metabolic rate

73
Q

what is BMR ?

A

the minimal amount of energy required to carry out essential physiological functions

74
