One complete breath comprises one inhalation when the chest rises, followed by one exhalation when the chest falls. To measure the respiratory rate, count the number of breaths for an entire minute or count for 30 seconds and multiply that number by two.

Step-by-step explanation:

Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) equations:

(RMR) kcal/day: (males) = 9.99 x weight (kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) - 4.92 x age(years) + 5; (RMR) kcal/day: (females) = 9.99 x weight(kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) - 4.92 x age (years) - 161.
