Storage depends on 3 principles: The work done The work must be against some force, such as gravity and elasticity undo the work The stored energy becomes active (kinetic)
eats the food and breathes the oxygen, the potential
energy of the plants from the sun becomes the possession of the body; Then it is converted into kinetic energy as the needs of the body require. From the Sun to the cells: ‘the child of the Sun”– dependence upon the sun for our supply of energy.
Слайд 8
Bodily control of energy. (only a union of food
and oxygen can produce energy)
Rule: quantity of kinetic energy
supplied to the body is proportional to the work that is done. It is done through the ability of the body to store up the food materials and hold them in reserve until they are oxidized.
Слайд 9
Bodily energy as heat. 5/6 of the whole amount
is used to keeping warm; Important for carrying on the
vital processes; All parts of body (through oxidation) furnish heat (muscles, brain, liver – larger share); Blood serves as a heat distributor.
Слайд 10
Hygiene of energy supply Increase Heat – producing capacity of
the body; Heat- producing exercise (in the open air); Introduction of
the proper amounts of food and oxygen efficiency of the vital processes.
Слайд 11
Hygiene of energy supply Decrease: Spending time in poorly lighted
and ventilated overheating rooms; Wearing heavy clothing and sleeping under
excess of bed clothes; Overworking your body – too much arousal; Taking stimulants: alcohol, tobacco, strong tea and coffee tend to exhaust the bodily resources.
