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
During the inflammatory phase, what type of training can be undertaken by the athlete?
Maintain strength and endurance in adjacent, non-affected muscles
Resistance training with high volume and brief rest periods will most heavily affect which hormone: Cortisol, testosterone, or growth hormone?
Human growth hormone
How many pyruvate molecules result from anaerobic glycolysis?
2
1 glucose –> 2 Pyruvate –> Acetyl Coenzyme A –> Krebs cycle
What is the correct distance for placement of weight trees from lifting equipment?
36 inches
What is the suggested square footage recommendation for the stretching area per athlete?
49 sq feet
What are the 3 primary functions of hemoglobin?
- Transport O2
- Transport C02 (back to lungs)
- Acid base buffer (accepts H+ ions)
Which action is the pulmonary division of the arterial system responsible for?
Pumps deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and pumps oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart
Which action is the systemic division of the arterial system responsible for?
Pumps oxygenated blood from the heart to the tissues and returns deoxygenated blood from tissues back to the heart
A type of cross training that requires an anaerobic athlete to train aerobically for a period to help facilitate recovery from prior training sessions
Combination training
How many cervical vertebrae?
7
How many thoracic vertebrae?
12
How many lumbar vertebrae?
5
How many sacral vertebrae?
5
When developing speed-endurance, what component of the training program must be considered to improve this specifically?
Training volume
Training frequency
Exercise relief patterns (work:rest ratio)
Exercise relief patterns
What training adaptation to aerobic training increases the end-diastolic volume?
Right ventricle hypertrophy
Left ventricle hypertrophy
Right atrium hypertrophy
Left ventricle hypertrophy
