please answer this question
If this woman weighed 70 kg, determine her absolute oxygen consumption in (ml/min). It \"costs\" the body about 1 kcal for every 200 ml of oxygen consumed. Determine the approximate caloric cost (kcal/min) for the 70 kg woman described in #14 above.Solution
Question No. 14 is incomplete. Would request you submit the whole question next time.
I will still provide you with some definitions - hope it helps.
There are 2 ways Oxygen consumption (VO2) can be reported: 1. Absolute terms (L/min) and 2. Relative to body mass (ml/Kg*min)
Absolute Oxygen consumption - millilitres of oxygen consumed per minute. (Independent of the mass of the body).
Relative Oxygen consumption - millilitres of oxygen/Kilogram of body weight/minute.
Eg - 2 people can have the same Absolute Oxygen consumption, but 1 could be a heavy person and the other little person. It implies better aerobic capacity of the little person, and not so much for the heavy person.
Again, the second question is linked to the first question which in itself is incomplete. Please do share more information.
