Q

ATP hydrolizationton ADP

A

1) Interaction of ADP with creatine phosphate.
2) Formed stored glycogen via the anaerobic pathway called glycolysis.
3) By aerobic respiration

Q

Stored ATP

A

Provides energy for cross bridge movement and detachment and for operation of calcium pumps.
Muscles store limited amounts of ATP. Only energy source. ATP is hydrolyzed to ADP and inorganic phosphate.

Q

Direct phosphorylation of ADP by Creatine Phosphate

A

Unique high energy molecule stored in muscles, is tapped to regenerateATP while metabolic pathways are adjusting to suddenly higher demands for ATP. Result of coupling CP with ADP is almost instant transfer for energy nada phosphate group from CP to ADP to for ATP.

Q

Glycolysis

A

Initial phase of glucose respiration.

Pg302
Occurs in both presence and absence of oxygen, does not use oxygen, which makes it anaerobic.

Q

Pyruvic acid

A

During glycolysis, glucose is broken down into 2 pyruvic acid molecules, releasing enough energy to form small amounts of ATP.

Q

Aerobic respiration

A

Occurs in the mitochondria, requires oxygen, and involves a sequence of chemical reactions in which the bonds of fuel molecules are broken and the energy is used to make ATP.

Q

Contracture

A

Availability of ATP declines during contraction and a total lack of ATP results in contracture a, states of continuous contraction because the cross bridges are unable to detach.

Q

Oxygen debt

A

Defined as the extra amount of oxygen that the body must take in for these restorative processes. Represents difference between the amount of oxygen needed for totally aerobic muscle activity and the amount actually used.

Q

External tension

A

(Internal tension) These in turn become taut and transfer their tension.
When contraction ends, their recoil helps to return the muscle to its resting length.

16
Q

Length tension relationship

A

Occurs when a muscle is slightly stretched and the thick and thin filaments overlap optimally, because this permits sliding along the entire length of the thin filaments.
