Document Summary
Energy input or output is measured in kilocalories. 1 kcal represents the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water at 15 degrees, 1 degree to 16 degrees. To use the rest of the energy to maintain metabolic pathways, keep body temperature at 37 degrees (exothermic reactions) All energy is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen with the exception of protein which has an additional nitrogen. Cho yields 5. 05 kcals/lo yet stores 4. 1 kcal/g. Fat yields 4. 69 kcals/lo but stores 9. 4 kcal/g. ** primary factors affecting energy production is the total energy demand plus the rate of demand** **when carbs are stored in the muscle as glycogen, it requires water, thus changing the amount of energy consumed per gram of carbs when stored. The part of a reaction that is capable of doing work son.
