Soc 18-Areobic,Anaerobic Exercise And energy Sources

Question 1

Where is glucose stored?

Answer 1

Muscles and liver store glucose and glycogen. This then can be converted back to glucose during exercise

Question 2

Glucose?

Answer 2

Glucose: a major source of energy for most cells in the body.

Question 3

Latic acid?

Answer 3

Lactic acid: a colourless acid produced in muscle tissues during strenuous exercise when the body is exercising anaerobically at high intensity.

Question 4

Cramp?

Answer 4

Cramp: painful, involuntary contraction of a muscle, usually caused by fatigue.

Question 5

Aerobic? (Equation)

Answer 5

Training with oxygen at a moderate intensity.
Glucose + oxygen === water + carbon dioxide + energy (ATP)
C02 and water are bi-waste products.

Question 6

Anaerobic? (Equation)

Answer 6

Training without oxygen at a high intensity
Glucose === energy + latic acid
Latic acid (waste product)

Question 7

Where does energy come from?

Answer 7

Energy comes from a range of different foods,including fats and lipids.

Question 8

Fat? (What they do e.t.c)

Answer 8

-Provide energy for moderate intensity (aerobic)
-long periods of time
-fats are broken down into fatty acids,which are absorbed into the blood and delivered to cells (in muscles)
-fatty acids that are not needed are stored in fat cells
(E.g butter,cooking oils,bacon,cheese,fish and nuts)

Question 9

Carbohydrates? (Job)

Answer 9

-provide energy for moderate intensity (aerobic) and high intensity (anaerobic)
-can only be stored for 1-2 days
-broken down into glucose or glycogen,which can absorbed through the small intestines into the blood
-excess glucose is stored in the liver and ready to be distributed if your blood glucose levels get too low

Question 10

Complex carbohydrates?

Answer 10

Slow releasing and long lasting energy for exercise

Question 11

Simple carbohydrates?

Answer 11

Quick fix of energy (e.g banana at half time in a football match)
