The macronutrient composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms in structures containing glycerol esters.

The mass remaining of the body after subtracting the body’s fat mass.

The condition characterized by a decrease in performance and/or muscle contractile force.

Pertaining to feces or human solid waste.

The contractile speed and metabolic classification of muscle fibers. Traditionally, this has been done using myosin ATPase staining, resulting in slow (type I), intermediate (type Iia) or fast (type Iib) classifications. However other methods of classification also exist, such as typing the myosin heavy chain, and different muscle fiber categories than the three divisions identified can result.

The instrument used to quantify the concentration of molecules in solution based on the principle of fluorometry.

The biochemical method of quantifying molecules in solution based on the use of ultraviolet light to energize molecules, causing them to release visible light. The intensity of light emitted is proportional to the concentration of the molecule.

An electronic device implanted in the ground at surface level that quantifies the forces applies to it, such as during walking, running, jumping, etc.

The sweetest form of simple carbohydrate, and the main sugar of fruits and certain vegetables.

The atoms that make up a component of a molecule that give the molecule a specific trait.
