Answer:

Hunger is a feeling of physical discomfort that is caused by your body's need for nutrients. Appetite is a desire for food that is not based off of a need, but a craving.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hunger

A feeling of physical discomfort that is caused by your body's need for nutrients

basal metabolic rate

The rate at which you use energy when your body is at rest.

Appetite

A desire for food that is based on emotions and other factors rather than nutritional need.
