    A)  zero                                     

    B)  one

    C)  less than one                                   

    D)  more than one

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     The formula of Respiratory Quotient (RQ) is \[RQ=\frac{Volume\,of\,C{{O}^{2}}\,evolved}{Volume\,of\,{{O}_{2}}\,taken}\] In fats the amount of releasing CO; is less than absorbed \[{{O}_{2}}\]. So, RQ value is less than one (< 1) in fats.
