43
Q

What is the definition of oxygen debt?

A

The amount of oxygen required to remove the lactic acid and replace the body’s reserves of oxygen

44
Q

What happens to smooth, skeletal, cardiac muscle during an O2 debt?

A

Smooth: will die
Skeletal: can tolerate
Cardiac: Will die within 30 secs

45
Q

What is myoglobin

A

Protein found in striated muscles
*skeletal
*cardiac
*Supply oxygen to cells in muscles

46
Q

What is a tendon, ligament, and articulate capsule/
