Unit II ENERGY Flashcards
Constitutes 60% to 75% of daily energy expenditure and is the energy associated with the maintenance of majory body functions.
Resting Energy Expenditure (REE)
The minimal amount of energy expended over 24hrs while physically and mentally resting in a thermoneutral environment.
Basal Energy Expenditure (BEE)
Is the amount of energy required for the basal metabolic processes and TEF per unit weight per unit time.
Resting Metabolic Rate
Is the cumulative increase in energy expenditure after several meals and constitutes approximately 10% of daily energy expenditure.
Thermic Effect of Food (TEEF)
A portion of the TEF; the energy required to digest, absorb, and metabolize nutrients.
Obligatory Thermogenesis
Is the excess energy expended in addition to the obligatory thermogenesis, and is attributable to the metabolic inefficiency of the system stimulated by sympathetic nervous activity.
Adaptive or Facultive Thermogenesis
Energy expended during voluntary exercise and involuntary activities.
Energy expended in Physical Activity (EEPA)
The ___ and ___ of physical active have shown to increase EPOC, resulting in elevated metabolic rate even after exercise ceased.
