A

patients with lung disease

50
Q

Exercising muscle utilizes ____ to run aerobic metabolism to generate ATP necessary for muscle contraction

oxygen

51
Q

what is produced as a byproduct of aerobic metabolism in the muscles that is excreted by exhalation

52
Q

which muscle type uses O2 very efficiently (high endurance)

type I (slow oxidative)

Q

this muscle type can have high VO2 maxes, but to a lesser extent (antelopes and gazelles can run fast for a long period of time)

A

type IIa (fast oxidative)

54
Q

this muscle type tends to be in outstanding sprinters, but not able to sustain aerobic activity for a long and high level (alligators– very fast but tire quickly)

A

type IIb (fast glycolytic)

55
Q

In _____ time period, our muscles have access to sources of ATP that are sufficient to meet early metabolic demands

A

oxygen deficit

56
Q

in steady state exercise, _____ from glycolysis is moved into mitochondria for oxidative phosphorylation

A

pyruvate

57
Q

____ can also be brought into mitochondria and utilized for ATP generation

58
Q

At the _____ of exercise, our ATP requirements drop (despite this fact, we continue to have an increase in oxygen consumption that extends for a long period of time)

end

59
Q

benefit of exercise: our metabolic activity remains elevated for an extended period of time after exercise is completed (what is this known as)

A

excessive post-exercise oxygen consumption

60

role of EPOC (excessive post-exercise oxygen consumption)

61
Q

_____ will extend for a very significant amount of time (think after HIIT workout)

79
Q

exercise increases ___ and ___ in the blood that will lower pH

A

80
Q

We know that with intense exercise, there is increase in anaerobic metabolism due to fermentation that leads to production of lactate and proton; We know that that proton is consumed by bicarbonate to generate CO2; We know that with increasing oxygen consumption, there is a non linear increase of VCO2 at ventilatory threshold
——that is sufficient to blow down CO2, but not sufficient to ______ blood pH

normalize
