Q

What is the downside of sprinting?

A

due to anaerobic respiration there is a build of lactic acid in the muscles , which lead to muscle fatigue and muscle aching

Q

liquid paraffin, yeast cell experiment, what is the purpose of the liquid paraffin in tube A

Q

what happens once lactic acid has been transported to the liver?

A

lactic acid is oxidised to carbon dioxide and water

22
Q

what does anaerobic mean and what is it

A

it means respiring without oxygen and is the incomplete breakdown of glucose (without oxygen)

23
Q

what does repaying the oxygen debt mean??

A

it means providing the skeletal muscles with enough oxygen to break down all the lactic acid

24
Q

what sort of a molecule is glycogen

A

it’s a polymer molecule

25
what is a polymer molecule
a storage molecule
26
where is glycogen found
liver and skeletal muscles
27
which hormone promotes glycogen formation
insulin
28
when is glycogen used
blood glucose levels are low - when fasting or exercising
29
how is glycogen used
broken down into glucose which is then used in respiration
30
what is aerobic respiration
the complete breakdown of glucose and oxyge
31
which one - aerobic or anaerobic produces more energy
aerobic since its the complete breakdown
32
How to answer 6 marker - how does your fitness level affect the changes in breathing rate when exercising
answer for during and after exercising and for either unfit or fit person not both
33
how does your fitness level affect the changes in breathing rate when exercising : a fitter person's heart beats more ? so it has a higher ? volume - more ? per beat so more oxygenated ? and glucose gets to the muscles more ?. Because of this breathing ? can stay lower so can supply same ? of 02 for ? respiration. when exercise stops, person's breathing rate ? to normal more ?. as there is less oxygen ? to be repaid since they had less ? respiration and due to being fitter have a ? heart rate in general
efficiently, stroke, blood, blood, quickly, rate, amount, aerobic, returns, quickly, debt, anaerobic , lower
34
in exercise why does the heart rate increase/ get a lot faster
because the heart is having to pump more blood around the body and lungs to gain more oxygen for aerobic respiration, meaning more contractions and more glucose to lungs
35
why does breathing rate increase during exercise
because more oxygen is needed for aerobic respiration - also means more oxygen in blood and more carbon dioxide being removed
36
why does breath volume increase during exercise
to bring more air into lungs, meaning more oxygen in blood
37
why does level of glucose increase during exercise
for more aerobic respiration
38
why does level of glucose increase during exercise
increases supply of respiratory substrate
39
what is respiratory substrate
the organic nutrients oxidized at the time of respiration
40
metabolism is the sum of all of the ? reactions that happen in a living ?. these reactions include ? of food, aerobic and anaerobic ?, and protein ?. in plants ? is also a part of respiration!
chemical, organism, digestion, respiration , synthesis, photosynthesis
41
most of these metabolic ? are controlled by ?
reactions, enzymes
42
what does an anabolic reaction do
builds things
43
what does a catabolic reaction do
breaks things down
44
sugars, amino acids, fatty acids and ? are important in the synthesis and ? of carbohydrates, ? and lipids
glycerol, breakdown, proteins
45
what 3 things are glucose converted to in metabolism??
starch, glycogen and cellulose
46
what two substances synthesise proteins and are also used to form amino acids
glucose and nitrate ions
47
metabolism also ? ? excess proteins to ? urea for excretion
breaks down, form
48
what are the correct products of the digestion of a lipid molecule ( ratio) ?
3 fatty acids to 1 glycerol molecule
49
the production of an organic compound in a living thing, especially as aided by enzymes - what is this the definition of..?
synthesis/ synthesising
50
what 3 ways is energy from respiration used by an organism
synthesis reactions, active transport and also to maintain body temperature - ( NOT DIFFUSION!!)
