Question

Constance and Jennifer both watch a lot of TV, but Constance tends to get up and walk around during the commercials. Which process accounts for that fact that Constance has maintained her weight, while Jennifer has put on 10 pounds?

a. Archimedes Principle
b. Nonexercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT)
c. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
d. Hydrostatic pressure
e. Skinfold variance

Answer 1

Explanation:Answer:

b.. Nonexercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT)

Step-by-step explanation:

NEAT- Indicated sets of very light activities(apart from eating, sleeping and strenuous exercises ) that involve minute expenditure of energy; with the energy loss not as a result of basic ongoing physiological activities, but rather from usual activities of daily living of walking, standing, typing, fidgeting, to daily routine at work,and talking .

It can be measured by estimating the total amount of NEAT,( represented as the quantity of energy expended,);and subtract from this ( the basal metabolic rate and thermic effect of food .)

The second method involve the identify all the components of NEAT, and summing them up.

Answer 2

The process that accounts for the fact that Constance has maintained her weight while Jennifer has put 10 pounds is "Nonexercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT)"

Step-by-step explanation:

"Non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT): this is the energy expected for everything we do that is not sleeping, eating or sports-like exercise. It ranges from the energy we get from walking to work, typing e.tc
