Physical Inactivity
Enzyme that hydrolyzes triglycerides passing by in the bloodstream and passes their parts into the cells where they can be metabolized for energy or reassembled for storage
Lipoprotein Lipase
The point at which controls are set (ex:thermostat). The body tends to maintain a certain wt by means of its own internal controls.
Set Point

Leptin
A neurotransmitter significant in sleep regulation, appetite control, intestinal mobility, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, and mood disorders
Serotonin
The changing of behaviors by the manipulation of antecedents (cues or environmental factors that trigger behaviors), the behavior itself, and consequences (the penalties/rewards attached to behavior).
