energy systems

Question 1

what is the function of ATP

Answer 1

release energy by breaking phospholipid bond

Question 2

describe ATP-PC (aerobic/anaerobic, how energy is produced, how long it lasts, sporting example.)

Answer 2

anaerobic, breaking down phospholipids, short term (10s), 100m

Question 3

describe lactate (aerobic/anaerobic, how energy is produced, how long it lasts, sporting example.)

Answer 3

anaerobic, breaking down glucose, moderate term (400m)

Question 4

describe aerobic (aerobic/anaerobic, how energy is produced, how long it lasts, sporting example.)

Answer 4

aerobic, produced by mitochondria (releases h20 and co2 relies on breaking down fat stores to produce energy), lasts a long time, 10k run

Question 5

what is anaerobic glycolysis

Answer 5

when ATP-PC fades, system breaks down liver and glycogen stores without needing o2. this releases 2 ATP in glucose. glycogen produces 3 ATP.

Question 6

lactic acid production

Answer 6

anaerobic glycosis produce lactic acid. goes into the blood. cause fatigue. cause burning sensation.

Question 7

what are the adaptations of the energy systems

Answer 7

• adpation to physical demand
• ^ creatine store
• ^ lactate tolerance
• ^ aerobic energy system
• ^use of fats
• ^ number of mitochondria

Question 8

what is diabetes (hypoglycemic attack)

Answer 8

due to too low/high blood sugar. bellow 4mmg or 7. symptoms is shaking, sweating, blurry vision, due to missed meal.

Question 9

childrens lack of lactate system

Answer 9

lactate system wont develop till 20, reduce anaerobic capabilities. due to lacking muscle mass.
