Two-thirds of the water and solutes that the body reclaims by reabsorption in nephrons occurs in the proximal tubule. proximal tubule cells have large numbers of mitochondria and demand a great deal of oxygen. explain why.

im back lol i heard you where asking for me

the energy generated by an individual's metabolism is calculated in met (metabolic equivalent of task). the met is the ratio of the work metabolic rate to the resting metabolic rate. one met is illustrated as 1 kcal per kilogram per hour, and is probably equal to the energy cost of sitting quietly.

1 met is equal to 1.162 watt per kg

1 kg is equal to 1000 grams

as the person weighs 80000 gm, that is, 80 kg.

therefore, 80*1.162 = 92.96

thus, the person expends 92.96 watts of power while at rest.
