respiratory quotient (RQ) the ratio of the volume of expired carbon dioxide to the volume of oxygen absorbed by the lungs per unit of time. Called also respiratory exchange ratio (above).
With these measurements the resting energy expenditure (REE) and respiratory quotient (RQ) can be calculated. The RQ represents the ratio of carbon dioxide exhaled to. the amount of oxygen consumed by the individual.s a by-product of metabolism, expelled to atmosphere (CO2 output aâ¬â Ã¢). vco2â¬â a Ã¢ all computed to represent values corresponding to 1 minute. Time intervals with these measurements the resting (ENERGY) expenditure ree and (RESPIRATORY) quotient rq can. be calculated
