Q

Glycolysis

A

the breakdown of carbohydrates to resynthesize ATP

25
Q

Pyruvate

A

the end result of glycosis

26
Q

Anaerobic Glycolysis

A

aka fast glycolysis; when pyruvate is converted to lactate, ATP resynthesis is fast, but limited in duration

27
Q

Aerobic Glycolysis

A

aka slow glycolysis; when pyruvate is sent to mitochondria to the Krebs cycle, ATP resynthesis is slower, but much longer duration

28
Q

Lactate

A

product when pyruvate is catalyzed by enzyme lactate dehydrogenase

29
Q

Lactic Acid

A

mistaken for end result of pyruvate catalyzation

30
Q

Metabolic Acidosis

A

exercise-induced decrease in pH

31
Q

Wet Muscle

A

muscle that has not been desiccated

32
Q

Cori Cylce

A

cycle in which lactate is transported from muscle to blood to the liver where it is converted to glucose

33
Q

Mitochondria

A

specialized regular organelles where the reactions of aerobic metabolism occur

34
Q

Phosphorylation

A

process of adding inorganic phosphate to another molecule

35
Q

Oxidative Phosphorylation

A

refers to resynthesis of ATP in the ETC

36
Q

Substrate-Level Phosphorylation

A

describes the direct resynthesis of ATP from ADP during a single reaction in the metabolic pathways

37
Q

Allosteric Inhibition

A

occurs when an end product binds to the regulatory enzyme and decreases its turnover rate and slows product formation

38
Q

Allosteric Activation

A

occurs when the “activator” binds with the enzyme and increases its turnover rate

39
Q

Rate-Limiting Step

A

limiting factor in reaction

40
Q

Lactate Threshold (LT)

A

exercise intensity or relative intensity at which blood lactate begins an abrupt increase above baseline concentration

41
Q

Onset of Blood Lactate Accumulation (OBLA)

A

occurs when the concentration of blood lactate reaches 4mmol/L

42
Q

Oxidative System

A

primary source of ATP at rest and during low-intensity activites

43
Q

A

aka citric acid cycle or tricarboxylic acid cycle; series of reactions that continues the oxidation of the substrate begun in glycolysis and produces 2 ATP indirectly from guanine triphosphate via substrate-level phosphorylation for each molecule of glucose

A

where hyrdogen atoms are passed down to form a proton concentration gradient to provide energy for ATP production

45
Q

Cytochromes
