Lesson 2.6 - Energy balance
Learning Goals: By the end of this lesson you will be able to
- Explain the concept of energy balance,
- Describe how energy balance is achieved
- Analyze various factors affect calorie expenditure
Success Criteria: By the end of this lesson you will be able to
1. Why is energy balance important to overall health and well-being?
2. How can an analysis of caloric intake versus caloric expenditure provide someone with the tools to improve overall health?
Assignments / Homework:
Overall Expectations:
B3. Energy Balance: demonstrate an understanding of the physical processes involved in maintaining energy balance; B3. Energy Balance: demonstrate an understanding of the physical processes involved in maintaining energy balance;
Specific Expectations:
· B3.3 explain the concept of energy balance, and describe how energy balance is achieved (e.g., by changing the volume and types of food eaten; by changing the type, duration, or intensity of exercise)
- B3.4 c and interpret data to determine how various factors affect calorie expenditure (e.g., data about duration and intensity of exercise, body composition, basal metabolic rate, energy required for various forms of activity) Teacher prompts: “How does basal metabolic rate (BMR) change throughout the lifespan?” “How does the average daily caloric expenditure of a sixteen-year-old male compare to that of a seventy-year-old male?”
