What is Thyroid Hormones and Metabolic Rates about?

This document summarizes the results of a lab experiment on the endocrine system physiology. The experiment measured the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of rats in various conditions to understand the effects of thyroid hormones. It found that: 1) A normal rat had a BMR in the normal/euthyroid range. 2) Rats that were thyroidectomized or hypophysectomized had lower, hypothyroid BMRs. 3) Injecting thyroxine increased the BMR of all rats, but did not cause goiters.
