### process | consumption:

Fish consumption
* dominates the pathway for human and wildlife exposure to methylmercury.
* is associated with a reduced risk of stroke mortality
  - known to be the dominant pathway for exposure of humans and wildlife to mercury
  - on the increase around the world

Food consumption
* alters enzyme levels
* depends on the size of the animal.
* is low in winter until colonies begin to rear brood.

Fuel consumption
* Some fuel consumption occurs in transportation.
* increases drastically with increased speed.
* is also a commonly used method for measuring severity
  - economic due to the high lift wing
  - expressed in kg

Global consumption
* is broadly flat while production is in long-term decline
  - dictated by demand for acrylic fiber and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene
* very important aspect of globalization.

Heavy consumption
* can cause anxiety, dizziness, insomnia, and heart palpitations.
* causes cirrhosis of the liver and other physical problems.
* interferes with thyroid function.

Household consumption
* is also at a high level
  - estimated according to product
  - explained in terms of a hierarchy of needs
* remains the motor of economic growth.

Human consumption
* accounts for the majority of all antibiotic use.
* is the main threat to the Chinese giant salamander.

Meat consumption
* Some meat consumption increases cellular inflammation
* is associated with excess fat
  - just as dangerous to public health as tobacco use
  - probably the biggest contributor to parasites flourishing in our bodies
* tends to increase during all Jewish holidays.

Moderate consumption
* has effects
  - negative effects
* wills have effects

Oxygen consumption
* See oxygen uptake.
* Some oxygen consumption is caused by actions
  - microbial actions
* declines because of the loss of muscle tissue.
* is almost directly proportional to body size
  - studied through indirect calorimetry

Power consumption
* critical issue in the development of mesoscale mobile robots.
* is proportional to the switching frequency.
* key element in color liquid crystal panels for cell phones.
* minmal consideration in a server next to price and performance.
* third of conventional CRTs.
* varies widely.

Sip
* are panels which sandwich plastic foam insulation between two layers of a wood product
  - solid, one-piece structural components that can be used in walls, floors, and roofs
* create flat solid surfaces for attaching finishes to.
* have no 'air' within their solid cores of insulation.

Total consumption
* continues to increase in close association with population and income growth.
* is assumed to equal imports less re-exports and losses.
* is the sum of private and g statistical discrepancy in the use of resources
  - general government consumption

Water consumption
* decreases as time progresses.
* increases with egg production and with temperature.
* is affected by various factors, including the kind and quality of feed
  - dependent on climatic conditions, feed types, production level and salt intake
  - important in preventing and in treating uroliths
  - seen to decrease by an order of magnitude
* varies with age, ambient temperature and humidity, and moisture content of food
  - the water content of the vegetation available locally
