16. If the aerobic catabolism of 1 mol of glucose yields 38 mol of ATP, and the energy released by
aerobic ATP hydrolysis to ADP is -46 kJ/mol, how much energy is available from 1 mol of
glucose via aerobic catabolism?
17. A particular 70-kg man has a basal metabolic rate (BMR) of 7000 kJ/day. A large mouse
weighing 30 g has a BMR of about 20 kJ/day. In each case, what is the BMR expressed per kg of
body mass?
18. The allometric equation is BMR = aWb. For mammals, the value of a is approximately 293
kJ/day and the value of b is 0.75. What is the predicted BMR for a blue whale of 100,000 kg?
