Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

MET is short for metabolic equivalent. Physicians who work with cardiac patients frequently use METs to measure activity levels. One MET represents the body's energy requirement at rest, or the equivalent of a VO2 of 3.5 mL/kg/min. A 10-MET activity requires a 10-fold increase in the resting energy requirement, or approximately 35 mL/kg/min. MET levels for a given activity vary according to the individual's effort. The harder a person exercises, the higher the MET level.
