Energy system Flashcards
What is ATP made up of
1 adenosine molecule bound with 3 phosphate molecules
Where is energy stored in ATP
In the bonds between adenosine and phosphate
What is left when ATP is broken down for energy
ADP
What enzyme controls the reaction during muscular contraction
Myosin ATPase
What does the creatine phosphate system (CP) provide energy for
High energy short duration activities
What is the primary source of energy for CP system
Intramuscular stores of ATP and CP
How can ATP be instantly regenerated
Breaking down high energy bonk in CP
What is the max time allowance for CP system
10 Seconds
How much CP is found in the human body
About 120g
Where is creatine replenished from
Liver or kidneys from amino acids or from diet through meat and fish
Does CP system require oxygen
No
How long does the lactate system last
60-180s
What intensity (HR) does lactate system work under
75-95% max heart rate
Where does the lactate system get its energy
From the incomplete breakdown of glucose
Where does glucose used in lactate system come from
In blood or converted from glycogen
