- How do animals/consumers use ATP (energy)?arrow_forwardHumans can survive longer by total fasting than on a diet consisting entirely of small amounts of carbohydrates. What is going on?arrow_forwardVegetarian diets are associated with a lower risk of obesity and diabetes as well as other chronic conditions (Marsh, Zeuschner, & Saunders, 2012). Clearly a vegetarian diet can be a healthy one, but can a vegetarian diet lack nutrients? If so, which nutrients may be lacking? How could these nutrients be measured in the body to determine if someone is deficient in them? Are there vegetarian foods that provide these nutrients or would supplementation be necessary? Are there any interactions to be aware of with the supplements that a vegetarian may take?arrow_forward
- Cats should eat more than once a day. Mention two research articles related to this topic.arrow_forwardAn animal’s inputs of energy and materials would exceedits outputs(A) if the animal is an endotherm, which must always take inmore energy because of its high metabolic rate.(B) if it is actively foraging for food.(C) if it is growing and increasing its mass.(D) never; due to homeostasis, these energy and materialbudgets always balancearrow_forwardWhich statement best summarizes the steps are involved before sugar is able to enter the bloodstream? (a) food is mechanically and chemically broken down until it becomes oxygen in the blood stream until we chemically break oxygen away from it to get energy we can use (b) we mechanically break down food until it turns into sugar and enters the bloodstream and can be broken down for energy we can use (c) food and oxygen are broken down by the digestive system and they’re chemically combined to make sugar, which we can use as energy (d) food is mechanically and chemically broken down until nutrients enter the bloodstream and can be combined with oxygen to create energy we can usearrow_forward
