Question

owen is counting calories. what does this most likely mean? (1 point) he is calculating his basal metabolic rate (bmr). he is testing his blood sugar levels on a regular basis. he is measuring the vitamins that enter his bloodstream. he is seeing how much energy his body consumes.

Explanation:

Calories are a measure of energy. When Owen is counting calories, he is essentially tracking the energy (in the form of calories) that his body consumes. Basal metabolic rate (BMR) calculation is about energy consumption at rest, but the act of "counting calories" more directly relates to seeing how much energy (calories = energy units) his body takes in (from food, etc.) which is a form of seeing energy consumption. Measuring vitamins is about nutrient intake (not energy in the form of calories), testing blood - sugar is about glucose levels (a type of energy but not the general act of counting all calories), and calculating BMR is a more specific metabolic rate calculation (not the same as the general act of counting calories).

Answer:

He is seeing how much energy his body consumes.
