Question 13 • {HS} Healthy Living [Semester Only]

Which of the following is NOT true about energy balance?

Answer
A
Energy balance is influenced by the amount of exercise one gets and their dietary habits.
B
Inactive people use more energy so they should consume fewer calories.
C
Stored body fat will increase if calorie intake is greater than energy used.
D
Energy balance is the balance between the amount of calories consumed and the amount used for energy.

Explanation

Energy balance compares the calories consumed with the energy the body uses. Exercise and dietary habits affect this balance, and when calorie intake exceeds energy use, the surplus can be stored as body fat. Choice B is not true because inactive people generally use less energy, not more.
