total metabolic rate is the sum of basal metabolic rate and energy expenditure for which three of the following?
□ urination
□ sleep
□ exercise
□ digestion
□ thermoregulation

Explanation:

Total metabolic rate (TMR) is BMR plus energy for activities. Exercise (physical activity), Digestion (processing food), and Thermoregulation (maintaining body temp) are energy - using processes contributing to TMR. Urination and Sleep (sleep is part of BMR - related rest, not an additional TMR activity here) don't fit.

Answer:

C. Exercise, D. Digestion, E. Thermoregulation
