Ch 4 Exercise Metabolism and Bioenergetics

Question 1

Gluconeogenesis

Answer 1

Process during a negative energy balance that uses amino acids in energy production
amino acids=proteins

Question 2

Glycogen

Answer 2

Stored glucose.

The storage form of carbohydrates in muscle tissue and the liver

Question 3

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)

Answer 3

Energy storage and transfer unit within the cells of the body

Question 4

ATP-PC System

Answer 4

ATP-PC (creatine) 0-30 sec in duration, HIGH intensity, Fast twitch muscle fibers (type II) and carb utilization (sprinter)

Energy system used during the onset of activity and primarily maintained during the first 30 seconds of activity

Question 5

Glycolysis

Answer 5

The anaerobic chemical breakdown of glucose for energy.

Energy system without oxygen used primarily for the first 30 to 50 seconds of activity, dropping off around 3 minutes ex: jogging 1-2 laps

Question 6

Oxidative System (Aerobic)

Answer 6

• known as the Krebs cycle and the citric acid cycle. In this system, carbohydrates and fats are the primary energy sources converted into ATP and this process takes place in the mitochondria of the cell.
• powers the capacity for Client to recover from anaerobic activity optimally.

Question 7

Excess Post Oxygen Consumption (EPOC)

Answer 7

The state where there is an elevation of the body’s metabolism after exercise

Question 8

What is the proper order for oxidation of a FREE FATTY ACID?

Answer 8

Aerobic Glycolysis, Krebs cycle, Electron Transport Train

AKE - all kittens eat

Question 9

What energy system is a power lifter/sprinter utilizing?

Answer 9

ATP-PC

Question 10

What is the chief source of energy for all body functions and muscular exertion?

Answer 10

Carbs

Question 11

Glucose

Answer 11

Primary end product after the digestion of carbohydrates

Question 12

Anaerobic

Answer 12

Processes that do not require the use of oxygen.

Ex: sprinting/lifting weights

Question 13

Aerobic

Answer 13

Processes of energy that require the use of oxygen
Ex: running/swimming
Aerobic is the first part of beta oxidation, krebs cycle is second, Electron Transport Chain(ETC) is the third

Question 14

What is the most efficient, but slowest and most complex pathway to energy where ATP is created in the presence of oxygen?

Answer 14

Oxidative phosphorylation (aerobic glycolysis + Krebs cycle + electron transport chain)

Question 15

What are 2 factors that determine energy use during exercise?

Answer 15

Intensity and duration

Question 16

By which 3 pathways can cells generate ATP?

Answer 16

APT-PC, glycolysis, oxidative
