Q

describe the effect that creatine supplementation has on immediate energy system function

A

creatine supplementation can increase the duration of the immediate energy system by 2-3 seconds. The muscle sarcoplasm stores create that combines with ADP to make ATP. If creatine supplementation increases the amount of Cr available, more ATP can be made. It can increase intensity or duration of exercise.

the hydrogen ions are acidic and stimulate free nerve endings in muscle fibers (muscular burn) and denatures proteins and slows their ability to function. they shut down anaerobic metabolic pathways b/c of acidic enzymes don’t work well

explain / draw electron transport / oxidative phosphorylation

A
  • cytochromes in inner membrane of mitochondria accept protons from nadh and fadh2
  • e- are stripped from H+ and passed down the chain
  • protons are pumped out of matrix, making a gradient of potential energy
  • e- are trapped by O2 and combine with H+ to make H20 (2H+ + ½ O2 + e- = H20)
  • protons that were pumped out into the inter-membrane space re-enter in OP.
  • the proton re-entering releases kinetic energy and puts a Pi on ADP to make ATP
