  5. The Relationship between Resting Metabolic Rate and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in the Obesity

    남, 아영2011

    OBJECT: Resting metabolic rate (RMR) poses the largest portion in daily energy expenditure. After adjusting height and weight, progression towards obesity is less in higher RMR group than the lower ones. Based on the theory that obesity has a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, we studied …

  6. Inter-individual variation within social groups: how metabolic rate shapes the pace of life

    Mugel, Stephen G., author, Naug, Dhruba, advisor, Florant, Gregory L., committee member, Ode, Paul, committee memberColorado State University. Libraries2020

    Metabolic rate (MR) is often cited as the fundamental rate which determines the rate of all biological processes by shaping energetic availability for the various physiological, behavioral, and life-history traits that contribute to performance. Furthermore, the metabolic theory of ecology posits …

    Millidine, Karen JUniversity of Glasgow2008

    Animals may adopt a range of energy strategies to persist and perhaps prosper under various prevailing environmental conditions. For example, they may achieve similar growth by investing heavily in maintaining a high capacity food capture and processing system or by using a lower capacity system …

  10. The elevation of metabolic rate after combined arm-and-leg versus leg-only exercise

    Lee, Stuart M. C.Virginia Tech1992

    Previous investigations have shown that metabolic rate remains elevated for a period of time after the cessation of exercise. While other investigations have examined the effect of intensity and duration of prior exercise, the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of exercise mode and the …

    Basu, Asmita, author, Hufbauer, Ruth, advisor, Newman, Greg, committee member, Neuwald, Jennifer, committee memberColorado State University. Libraries2026

    In animals, metabolic processes play a pivotal role in shaping behavior and physiology, particularly in organisms whose energetic demands are closely linked to their performance in nature. In social insects like honeybees, variation in metabolic rate and energy intake can influence individual …

  12. The Effects of Exercise Training on Resting Metabolic Rate in Youth with Overweight or Obesity

    Yu, Winnie Wing-Yan2020

    Resting metabolic rate (RMR) is the largest component in energy expenditure and is often reduced with weight loss. Exercise training has been shown to attenuate RMR reductions in adults. However, little is known about the effects of exercise training and body composition changes on RMR in youth …

    Cassano, Julian, author, Naug, Dhruba, advisor, Ode, Paul, committee member, Florant, Gregory, committee memberColorado State University. Libraries2022

    Metabolic rate is the rate at which organisms process energy and is often considered as the fundamental driver of life history processes. The link between metabolic rate and life history is primarily mediated via foraging, which shapes the energy acquisition patterns of an individual. This predicts …
