15
Q

ATP-PCr System

A

ATP and PCr are released to sustain the muscle’s energy. PCr is used to synthesize ATP, so it is dependent. This occurs in the cytoplasm (1 mole ATP: 1 mole PCr)

16
Q

Glycolytic System

A

Breaks down glycogen to lactic acid, producing ATP, without oxygen. 3 moles of ATP from 1 mole glycogen and 2 ATP from 1 glucose

17
Q

Oxidative system

A

Uses oxygen to produce ATP in the mitochondria.it is slow to turn on but produces more energy. Includes the Krebs cycle and the ETC

18
Q

Oxidation of Carbs

A

Pyruvic acid from glycolysis is converted to acetyl CoA, which then enters the Krebs cycle and for 2 ATP

19
Q

Electron Transport Chain

A

Produced H+ which are recombined with O to produce water. Elections produced provide energy to convert ADP to ATP. One molecule of glycogen can generate 37-39 molecules of ATP

20
Q

Oxidation of fat

A

Lipomas is forms glycerol and FFAs. FFAs travel to muscles and are broken down I to acetic acid which is converted to acetyl CoA through beta oxidation

21
Q

Oxidation of protein

A

some amino acids can be converted into glucose, while the nitrogen is converted to urea

22
Q

Steroid hormones

A

Formed from cholesterol. Lipid soluble. Capable of direct gene activation. Diffuse across cell membrane.
Ex. Cortisol, aldosterone, estrogen, testosterone

23
Q

Nonsteroid hormones

A

Formed from proteins. Not lipid soluble. Triggers intercellular events.
Ex. Thyroxine and epinephrine

24
Lipolysis is hormonally controlled by
Decreased insulin | Increased epinephrine, cortisol, GH
25
Fluid and electrolyte regulation
ADH, aldosterone, and renin
26
ADH
Released from posterior pituitary, promotes water retention
27
Aldosterone
Produced in adrenal glands, promotes renal reabsorption of sodium
28
Kidneys
Influence maintenance of plasma volume and blood pressure regulation through release if renin
