16
Q

fats

A

0.70 a big energy source using krebs/CAC, aerobic exercise

17
Q

carbs

A

1.02 VCO2 higher than VO2, anaerobic uses glycolysis (mostly fast)

18
Q

oxidoreductases

A

oxidation-reduction, donating or accepting an electron

19
Q

transferase

A

transfer one aspect of a molecule to another molecule with same outcome

20
Q

hydrolase

A

triggers hydrolysis or a chemical bond; breaks a chemical bond by the addition of water

21
Q

lyases

A

triggers the breaking of bonds by means other than hydrolysis and oxidation; the reverse is also possible, causes different outcome

22
Q

isomerases

A

allow for simple rearrangement within a molecule

23
Q

most immediate source of energy

A

ATP

24
Q

second most immediate form of energy

A

creatine

25
Q

most limited immediate source of ATP

A

myokinase
