phosphocreatine-creatine system aka
creatine phosphate
what decomposes to make creatine and phosphate ions releasing large amounts of energy
high energy phosphate bonds
what transfers to atp almost instantaneously
phosphocreatine energy
what does the phosphagen energy system provide
cell atp + phosphocreatine
quick bursts of energy
what splits into glucose for energy
glycogen
what part of the glycogen-lactic acid system is used for anaerobic metabolism
glycolysis
what does glycolysis do
glucose to two pyruvic acid to make 4atp
what part of the glycogen-lactic acid system is used for lack of air (anaerobic)
lactic acid
what is pyruvic acid converted into
lactic acid
T/F lactic acid causes considerable amount of ATP formation in 1.3-1.6 min
true
what is oxidized in the mitochondria for energy in the aerobic system
glucose, fatty acids, carbs, amino acids
what converts into atp
amp and adp
