Yes - body burns calories all the time - blinking eyes, pumping blood through heart, brain functioning etc.
Thats why its advised to consume 2000cal/day for women - thats how much an average woman burns a day. And 2500cal/day for men because thats how much an average man burns a day.

Yes! Your body burns cals all the time. The more muscular you are, the more energy your muscles use up, even when you are sleeping!
