Question

question 3 0.5 pts the rate at which your body expends energy while at rest is referred to as ____ ____. normal resting body mass basal metabolic high glucose

Explanation:

The question is about a term related to the body's energy expenditure at rest. "Basal metabolic rate" (the full term, but the option here is "basal metabolic" as part of it) refers to the rate of energy expenditure by the body at rest. "Normal resting" is not a standard term for this concept, "body mass" relates to weight/ mass of the body, and "high glucose" is about blood sugar levels, not energy expenditure at rest. So the correct option is the one with "basal metabolic".

Answer:

C. basal metabolic (assuming the options are labeled A to D with A. normal resting, B. body mass, C. basal metabolic, D. high glucose)
