Energy |
|
What are the 6 forms of energy? |
Chemical , mechanical, heat , light , electric , and nuclear |
|
Conservation of energy. Dictates that the body does not produce , consume, or use up energy; rather, it transformer it from one form into another as physiologic systems undergo continual change |
First law of thermodynamics |
|
Chemical processes that release energy to it's surroundings , down hill process , give up energy |
Exergonic reactions |
|
Chemical processes that store or absorb energy. Uphill process , needs energy |
Endergonic reactions |
|
What are the three forms of biological work , which one requires most of our energy? |
Mechanical work , chemical work , and transport work . Mechanical. |
|
Refers to all the physical and chemical processes within the body that create and use energy |
Metabolism |
|
The process of building new materials the body use Ex: storing carbs and fats. Also new proteins |
