Question: 1.Does a persons BMR change throughout his or her lifetime? Is there different metabolic homeostasis for a 10-year-old and a 60-year-old? 2. Basal Metabolic Rate

1.Does a person’s BMR change throughout his or her lifetime?  Is there different metabolic homeostasis for a 10-year-old and a 60-year-old? 

2. Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) homeostasis is under the endocrine control system. When a patient hyper-secretes the hormone that controls metabolism, how would the following change? (use up or down arrow to indicate increase or decrease.)

       ____ BMR       ____ Respiration Rate    ____ Body weight.
