assembled from a pool of at least 20 different kinds of amino acids | Protein |
amino acids that must be in a diet | Essential |
amino acids that can be missing from the diet that can be made by the body | Nonessential |

vitamin deficiency | avitaminosis |
vitamin C deficiency | scurvy |
vitamin excess | hypervitaminosis |
inorganic elements that are found in the Earth | Minerals |
rate at which nutrients are catabolized when that individual is resting | basal metabolic rate |

refusal to eat | anorexia |
"food binge" and then induce vomiting | Bulimia |

transfer of heat energy to the skin and then the external environment | conduction |
transfer of heat energy to air that is continually flowing away from the skin | convection |
absorption of heat by water vaporization | evaporation |
two of the body's processes that can be altered to adjust the body's temperature | shivering and secretion of metabolism-regulating hormones |
high body temperature, pyrogens | fever |
abnormally increased body temperature when exposed to certain anesthetics | malignant hyperthermia |
environmental temperatures are high, normal body temperature maintained, causes weakness | heat exhaustion |

extremely cold environment and body temperature is lower than 95 | hypothermia |
local damage to tissues caused by extremely low temperatures. Reduction of blood flow. Causes necrosis and gangrene | frostbite |
