Chapter 50, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
To determine: In what way the energy cost per hop differ at the two frequencies and also how this is related to energy storage in tendons.
Concept introduction: The locomotion is one of the most important characteristics of animals. It helps them to find mates, forage and to escape from enemies.
The locomotion on land is mediated in animals by the structural adaptations that evolved over the time to overcome the
Given data:
The energy consumed when standing is 159 joules/sec.
The energy consumed during hopping at different frequency is given as follows:
| Frequency (hops/sec) | Energy used (joules/sec) |
| 1.85 | 735 |
| 0.92 | 716 |

Conflicting Claims About the Effect of Exercise on the Rate of Clothespin Squeezing
Student A claims that a person will be able to squeeze a clothespin more times in a minute if the
person exercises first. Student A suggests that exercising produces a faster pulse rate, which indicates
that the blood is getting to the muscles faster.
Student B claims that a person will be able to squeeze the clothespin more times in a minute if the
person does not exercise first. Student B suggests that exercise takes energy away from the muscles,
and a person who has been resting will have more energy.
Which of the two students do you agree with?
How could you find out for sure which
claim is correct ?
A student weighing 700 N took a weight
management course with a Basal Metabolic Rate
(BMR) of 1500 kcal, which is 20% of their total
daily fat intake. If a student consumed 40.0 g of
fat in a day, how many minutes would the student
perform sitting exercises at the rate of 1 time per
second? (Up-down counts as 1 time) to burn
excess fat received if each time the center of
gravity shifts to a distance of H = 50.0 cm, as
shown in the figure, muscle efficiency is 25% and
fat 1.0 g provides 9.0 energy. kcal (1 kcal = 4184 J)

Consider Figure 49.3 in the textbook. Aerobic scope can be understood as an animal's capacity to increase its metabolic rate above maintenance levels so that they can perform physically demanding tasks. The following statements are true. Please choose all applicable options.
a.Salmon performance is highly dependent on and sensitive to temperature changes.
b.All salmon stocks have the same percentage of aerobic scope at any given temperature.
c.All salmon stocks have a similar trend that relates temperature to their percentage of aerobic scope.
d.As temperature increases, various salmon stocks have higher percentage of aerobic scope available to complete cardiovascular demands.
e.As temperature increases, various salmon stocks have lower percentage of aerobic scope available to complete cardiovascular demands.
