and outputs a similar amount in the form of waste solids, waste liquids, and carbon dioxide. The mass breakdown of these metabolic parameters is as follows: 0.84 kg of oxygen, 0.62 kg of food, and 3.54 kg of water consumed, converted through the body's physiological processes to 0.11 kg of solid wastes, 3.89 kg of liquid wastes, and 1.00 kg of carbon dioxide produced. These levels can vary due to activity level of a specific mission assignment, but must obey the principle of mass balance.
