Smaller mammals use proportionately more energy than larger mammals; that is, it takes more energy per gram to power a mouse than a human. a typical mouse has a mass of 20 g and, at rest, needs to consume 3.0 cal each day for basic body processes.
1. if a 68 {\rm kg} human used the same energy per {\rm kg} of body mass as a mouse, how much energy would be needed each day?
2. what resting power does this correspond to?
3. how much greater is this than the resting power noted in the chapter?
p = ?
