Metabolism of Healthy Man. 



The body-temperature was measured with the rectal thermometer and the 

 pulse- and respiration-rates were taken in the usual way with the pneumograph. 

 The records for the pulse and respiration are given in table 37, and the body- 



10 h 40 m a. m., 36.84 C. ; 



a. m., 36.92 C. 



temperatures were as follows : 8 h 40 m 



12 h 40 m p. m., 36.69 C. ; 2 h 40 ,n p. m., 36.76 C 



4 h 40 m p. m., 36.80 C. The 



measurements of the metabolism are given for the four 2-hour periods in 

 table 44.

METABOLISM EXPERIMENT No. 152. 



Subject, H. R. D., March 31, 1906. (Same subject as in 

 experiment No. 150.) 



The subject entered the respiration chamber at 7 h 30 m a. m. and was weighed 

 at 7 h 42 m a. m. After the apparatus was in equilibrium, he began eating 

 bananas and sugar at 8 h 16 m a. m. and finished at 8 h 42 a. m., having eaten 

 1173 grams of bananas and 103 grams of sugar. For the following 8 hours 

 the subject sat quietly in the chair, reading most of the time. At 12 h 45 m 

 p. m. and 4 h 45 m p. m. he passed 302 grams and 257 grams of urine, respectively. 

 At 4 h 45 in p. m. the subject got up from his chair and for an additional 2 hours
