Study Notes
Energy Utilization in the Body
- Excess energy left from food after organ operation is stored as fat for future use.
- The capacity of the body to do work is defined as metabolism, which encompasses all chemical reactions for energy production.
- The brain consumes about 20% of the body's total energy while at rest.
Energy Consumption by Organs
- The liver is known to utilize approximately 25% of the body's energy under resting conditions.
Sensory Responses
- The eyes are the sense organs that respond to visible light, enabling sight.
Basic Energy Source
- The basic energy source for the body is glucose, derived from carbohydrates in the diet.
