BMR (basal metabolic rate) Basal metabolic rate (BMR)‚ and the closely related resting metabolic rate (RMR)‚ is the amount of energy expended while at rest in a neutrally temperate environment‚ in the post-absorptive state (meaning that the digestive system is inactive‚ which requires about twelve hours of fasting in humans). The release of energy in this state is sufficient only for the functioning of the vital organs‚ the heart‚ lungs and kidneys and the rest of the nervous system‚ intestine‚

medications- 1.Thyroxine 2. Alendronate 3. Ginkgo Biloba Thyroxine Introduction- Thyroxine tablets are important in managing hypothyroidism‚ but treatment may be sub-optimal if they are used incorrectly. The tablets have pharmaceutical properties‚ which can impair the patients management. Discussing the correct use and storage of the tablets is an important part of prescribing thyroxine. Availability Synthetic preparations of thyroxine contain the laevo isomer of thyroxine‚ usually as the

Small Animal Metabolism Materials: 3 Gerbils (8‚ 24‚ 17) Cage Circular Tube 2 Plugs Brown Paper Towel Weight and Balance Soap Solution Drierite Glass Pipette Metal Poker Procedure Our hypothesis for the Small Animal Metabolism lab was that the gerbil will consume oxygen at a greater rate than a mouse because the gerbil is larger in size. To begin this experiment we obtained a gerbil from a specific cage and weighed it on a balance. After we had weighed the gerbil‚ we inserted

Should we use animals for experiments? (against) The question is‚what it means to use animals for experiments? It means‚ the investigators and doctors whose are producing medicines they have to test is first‚somehow‚to see how is the effect of the medicine.This “somehow” means the animals.Moreover I haven’t said anything about testing new products like cosmetic products‚make-ups‚sprays. In my opinion‚the animals are different‚they body and organism are different.For this reason the scientists

Is it normally acceptable to experiment on non-human animals to develop products and medicines that benefit human beings? New scientific research has cast grave doubt on the safety testing of hundreds of thousands of consumer products. Everyday products‚ from soft drinks to paints‚ contain numerous synthetic chemicals. Official assurances of the safety of these chemicals are based largely on animal experiments. But recent results from a consortium in America suggested such assurances may be worthless

The Aim of the experiment: In this experiment I will investigate the relationship between the concentration of the hydrochloric acid and the rate of a reaction. To find this out I will react different concentration of hydrochloric acid and magnesium‚ from there I will monitor the gas (hydrogen) produced and analyse the results. Prediction: I predict the higher the molarity of the hydrochloric acid the faster the rate of reaction therefore the quicker the gas will be produced in the specific

Animal metabolism consists of the utilization of nutrients absorbed from the digestive tract and their catabolism as fuel for energy or their conversion into substances of the body. Metabolism is a continuous process because the molecules and even most cells of the body have brief lifetimes and are constantly replaced‚ while tissue as a whole maintains its characteristic structure. This constant rebuilding process without a net change in the amount of a cell constituent is known as dynamic equilibrium

Metabolism “Metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that happen in living organisms to maintain life. These processes allow organisms to grow and reproduce‚ maintain their structures‚ and respond to their environments” (Metabolism). Metabolism breaks down the food that we eat‚ transforming it into energy for our bodies. Metabolism is broken down into two categories Anabolism and Catabolism‚ which help aid in the chemical reaction process. Specific proteins in the body control the chemical

Metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that happen in the cells of living organisms to sustain life. These processes allow organisms to grow and reproduce‚ maintain their structures‚ and respond to their environments. I never thought that people blame their weight on slow metabolism‚ but this article have changed my opinion on why someone can blame on metabolism I learned that metabolism is linked to weight. Metabolism is the process by which your body changes what you eat and drink into energy
