Intersexual differences in energy expenditure of Anolis carolinensis lizards during breeding and postbreeding seasons.
Although the amount of energy that males and females invest in reproduction is an integral component of theories explaining the evolution of particular mating strategies, few studies have actually determined the amount of energy that each sex allocates to reproduction. We compared how energy is expended by male and female Anolis carolinensis lizards during both the breeding and postbreeding sea...
متن کاملDifferences in basal energy expenditure and obesity.
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of differences in basal energy expenditure on adiposity. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES Statistical analysis was performed on a published database giving anthropometric and energy expenditure measurements for 433 women and 335 men. Published equations derived by multiple regression analysis were used to predict basal metabolic rates in women and in men as a fun...
متن کاملSex differences in energy intake and expenditure.
Men are different from women. We might even say ‘males are different from females’, which is not such an obviously basic statement, since a male child of only 3 months, might, apart from some superficial and relatively unimportant areas of distinction, appear to have few real differences from a 3-month-old female. However, it is an opinion which I shall attempt to argue, in relation to energy, ...
متن کاملEnergy expenditure during overfeeding
The large inter-individual variation in weight gain during standardized overfeeding together with a weight gain that is often less than theoretically calculated from the energy excess suggest that there are differences between persons in the capacity to regulate energy expenditure and hence metabolic efficiency. Adaptive thermogenesis is defined as the regulated production of heat in response t...
متن کاملEnergy expenditure during stepping.
Previous studies from this department have emphasized the wide variations occurring amongst healthy young adults, both in the daily intake of energy as judged by records of food consumption, and in energy expenditure recorded by indirect calorimetry, for a set task such as walking under standard conditions (Kitchin and others, 1949; Delbue and others, 1949). Although no correlation was demonstr...
