Which of the following animals uses the largest percentage ofits energy budget for homeostatic regulation?(A) marine jelly (an invertebrate)(B) snake in a temperate forest(C) desert insect(D) desert bird
Consider the energy budgets for a human, an elephant, apenguin, a mouse, and a snake. The __________ would have thehighest total annual energy expenditure, and the __________would have the highest energy expenditure per unit mass.(A) elephant; mouse(B) elephant; human(C) mouse; snake(D) penguin; mouse
Different lifestyles and careers can result in completely
different energy requirements -even between two
similarly sized people of the same sex.
(a) Compare the energy requirements of an office
worker and a landscaper who mows lawns with a
push mower for 8 hours each day. Who has the higher energy requirement and why? [2]
(b) What might happen over the course of one year if
they each consume the same number of Calories
daily? Explain why.

- Explain briefly the physiological reason for this survival rule: When left in an island with little or no freshwater, never eat solid food in large volume; eat only small portions at a time.arrow_forwardA man is found after being lost in a foodless desert for a week. He only survived because he found a water source. Even though he could not have any glucose from food left in his body, he still has the energy to walk and move around. How is he getting energy?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements best explains why all animals need food in order to live? O Body mass must be maintained, and food supplies the needed body mass. O Cells, tissues, and organs require energy to carry out their tasks, and food provides the needed energy. A balanced diet is neccessary to maintain strong bones and healthy teeth. O Food contains essential vitamins and minerals bodies need in order to process other nutrients.arrow_forward
