Detailed explanation-1: -Your basal metabolic rate (BMR) refers to the minimum number of calories your body needs to function while you’re resting. This amount varies from person to person. Your BMR fulfills 60% to 70% of the energy your body uses.

Detailed explanation-2: -An average man has a BMR of around 7, 100 kJ per day, while an average woman has a BMR of around 5, 900 kJ per day. Energy expenditure is continuous, but the rate varies throughout the day. The rate of energy expenditure is usually lowest in the early morning.

Detailed explanation-3: -The BMR is the rate at which your body burns calories to sustain life and is roughly 50-80 calories per hour in most people, which is 1, 200 to 1, 920 calories burned all day. If you were to lie in bed all day, you would burn whatever your BMR is (your BMR depends on genetics, muscle mass, and a number of other factors).

Detailed explanation-4: -The total metabolic rate is the amount of energy you need per day to maintain your weight. An additional factor here is the degree of activity (active metabolic rate).

Detailed explanation-5: -Metabolism or metabolic rate is defined as the series of chemical reactions in a living organism that create and break down energy necessary for life. More simply, it’s the rate at which your body expends energy or burns calories.
