LO5 Energy systems Flashcards
1
Q
What are the 3 systems?
A
ATP/PC,
Lactic Acid,
Aerobic.
2
Q
What is ATP?
A
ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate.
3
Q
When ATP loses a phosphate what does it become?
A
ADP.
4
Q
How does ATP become energy?
A
ATP=ADP+P+energy.
5
Q
What is the full stages of the ATP system?
A
ATP loses a P to become ADP it is resynthesiesed by PC and creatine Kinase to remove the C and add the P back.
6
Q
How long after the ATP system begins does it switch to the lattice acid system?
A
10 seconds.
7
Q
How long does the LS last?
A
15-180 seconds.
8
Q
What is glycogen broken down into?
A
Short glucose chains.
9
Q
What is the full LC system?
A
Glycogen becomes glucose which is eventually converted to pyruvic acid which is too toxic for the body so becomes Lactic acid.
10
Q
How many moles of ATP are produced by the LC system?
A
