Define vmax. How is vmax related to kcat?
A 25 year old male athlete who weighs 75 kg and is 178 cm tall consumes 3200 kcal's/day. His daily physical activity level would be considered heavy.
Based on this information, what is his predicted daily energy expenditure? With his current diet and activity level, is he in positive, negative, or neutral energy balance?
Define basal metabolic rate and discuss factors that can decrease or increase it.

- Endurance athletes sometimes follow the exercise-and-diet plan described here: 7 days before an event, do exhaustive exercises so as to all but deplete glycogen stores. For the next 2 to 3 days, consume few carbohydrates and do moderate- to low- intensity exercises. Finally, 3 to 4 days before the event, consume a diet rich in carbohydrates. Explain the benefits of this regime.arrow_forwardWhat are the two types of diabetes mellitus? Describe in detail the pathophysiology (how the disease develops) on individuals.
