When metabolism is measured by the rate of oxygen consumed, the metabolic rate increases rapidly at the onset of a physical task in an exponential fashion to meet the task requirements. Describe briefly what happens to the metabolic rate immediately after the individual stops performing the task and rests. Explain how this change in metabolic rate affects the design of jobs and job requirements.

You conduct an experiment to measure gas exchange. A 15 g mouse consumes 4.4 ml of oxygen and produces 3.6 ml carbon dioxide (both volumes are corrected to standard temperature and pressure).

a. Determine the mouse's mass specific metabolic rate.

c. What substrate(s) do you think the mouse is (are) burning?

e. Do you expect the mass-specific metabolic rate of an elephant to be greater than that of a mouse? Why does size affect mass-specific metabolic rate?

The thermoneutral zone refers to the range of temperatures where a homeotherm's resting metabolic rate: A. is relatively constant B.is elevated because the ambient temperature is below the lower critical temperature C. is elevated because the ambient temperature is above the upper critical temperature D. declines because the ambient temperature is above the upper critical temperature
