Excerpt from Energy Transformations During Horizontal Walking By studying the output of carbon dioxide and the intake of oxygen, not only is information secured regarding the total oxidation of material, but also some idea is gained of the character of the combustion by noting the relationship between the volume of carbon dioxide given off and the oxygen absorbed. With equal volumes of carbon dioxide and oxygen, this relationship or respiratory quotient is and indicates that carbohydrate has been exclusively burned. When the respiratory quotient approximates the indication is that fat has exclusively been burned. By this means, therefore, it is possible to compute with great accuracy the heat output from the total oxygen consumption and the respiratory quotient.
