15
Q

ATP-PCr System

A

ATP and PCr are released to sustain the muscle’s energy. PCr is used to synthesize ATP, so it is dependent. This occurs in the cytoplasm (1 mole ATP: 1 mole PCr)

16
Q

Glycolytic System

A

Breaks down glycogen to lactic acid, producing ATP, without oxygen. 3 moles of ATP from 1 mole glycogen and 2 ATP from 1 glucose

17
Q

Oxidative system

A

Uses oxygen to produce ATP in the mitochondria.it is slow to turn on but produces more energy. Includes the Krebs cycle and the ETC

18
Q

Oxidation of Carbs

A

Pyruvic acid from glycolysis is converted to acetyl CoA, which then enters the Krebs cycle and for 2 ATP

19
Q

Electron Transport Chain

A

Produced H+ which are recombined with O to produce water. Elections produced provide energy to convert ADP to ATP. One molecule of glycogen can generate 37-39 molecules of ATP

20
Q

Oxidation of fat

A

Lipomas is forms glycerol and FFAs. FFAs travel to muscles and are broken down I to acetic acid which is converted to acetyl CoA through beta oxidation

21
Q

Oxidation of protein

A

some amino acids can be converted into glucose, while the nitrogen is converted to urea

22
Q

Steroid hormones

A

Formed from cholesterol. Lipid soluble. Capable of direct gene activation. Diffuse across cell membrane.
Ex. Cortisol, aldosterone, estrogen, testosterone

23
Q

Nonsteroid hormones

A

Formed from proteins. Not lipid soluble. Triggers intercellular events.
Ex. Thyroxine and epinephrine

24
Q

Lipolysis is hormonally controlled by

A

Decreased insulin

Increased epinephrine, cortisol, GH

25
Q

Fluid and electrolyte regulation

A

ADH, aldosterone, and renin

26
Q

ADH

A

Released from posterior pituitary, promotes water retention

27
Q

Aldosterone

A

Produced in adrenal glands, promotes renal reabsorption of sodium

28
Q

Kidneys

A

Influence maintenance of plasma volume and blood pressure regulation through release if renin
