Missed Questions Flashcards
During oxidative phosphorylation, what is the net amount of ATP produced (assuming 2 ATP are consumed during the process)?
1 glucose –> 40 total ATP, 38 net ATP
What are the time considerations for assessing local muscular endurance?
10-120 seconds
What comprises long, thin chains of proteins that are arranged into sarcomeres and responsible for muscle contraction?
Myofibrils
What does the QRS complex represent on an EKG?
Depolarization of the ventricles
What is the basic function of allosteric Binding sites?
Allosteric Binding sites allow substances other than hormones to bind to a receptor and increase or decrease the activity of the primary hormone
What are the stages of general adaptation syndrome?
- Alarm 2. Resistance (positive adaptation seen) 3. Exhaustion (over-training)
What muscle fiber type has the greatest capacity for force production and hypertrophy?
Type IIb - fast glycolytic
Function in high force, explosive type movements
What are the areas of training an athlete should focus on first when returning from an injury before resuming concentric strength training
Flexibility –> eccentric strength –> concentric strength
What is the primary function of the sarcolemma?
To conduct electrical signals via transduction signaling the release of Ca ions
What 2 sites are used in skin fold measurements for high school females?
suprailiac and triceps
What 2 sites are used in skin fold measurements for high school males?
thigh and subscapular
When evaluating athlete readiness for engaging in a plyometric program, what are the primary considerations?
Strength, technique, balance, speed
What determines the energy systems used during a training session?
Session duration
The series elastic component of the stretch-shortening cycle is primarily concerned with what structure?
Tendons; involves the capacity of tendons to store and released elastic energy in response to a rapid stretching action
What is the difference between interval and repetition training?
Repetition training usually involves shorter more higher intensity intervals, lasting 30-90 seconds and focuses on increasing anaerobic power vs. aerobic power/endurance
