What are the 6 interchangeable energy state?

A
  1. Chemical
  2. Heat
  3. Electrical
  4. Mechanical
  5. Light
  6. Nuclear
19
Q

What is Bioenergetics?

A

The flow of energy within a living system

20
Q

How does Energy transfer occurs?

A

Energy transfer occurs hrough chemical reactions utilizing a mixture of nutrients and the use of oxygen

21
Q

What are the biologic functions for Energy Extraction?

A
  1. Muscular activity
  2. Digestion, absorption, transport, assimilation of food nutrients
  3. Glandular secretion for hormones
  4. Maintenance of electrochemical gradients across cell membranes
  5. Tissue Synthesis (ex: muscle protein synthesis)
22
Q

What is ATP?

A

Compound that is directly used to fuel many chemical reactions and many biological functions

23
Q

What happen when a degradation of one mole of ATP to ADP?

A

The outermost phosphate bond splits off and liberates 7.3 kcal of free energy

24
Q

ATP Powers many Biologic functions, what are they?

A
  1. Digestion
  2. Circulation
  3. Muscle contraction
  4. Tissue synthesis
  5. Nerve conduction
  6. Glandular secretion
25
Q

Other than food source we can recharge ATP, what else could do it?

A

Phosphatecreatine

Can give us ADP to recharge ATP

26
Q

What is the benefits of Creatine Monohydrate?

A
  1. Increasing high-intensity exercise capacity
  2. Lean body mass during training
  3. Muscle uptake
27
Q

What does Skeletal Muscle energy systems for?

A

For physical activities, recovery and adaptive process such as Muscle Protein Synthesis & tissue repair for broke down tissue

28
Q

What is Power Stroke?

A

In the presence of Calcium Iron (Ca2), myosin can form a bridge with actin and pull it towards the center of the sarcomere.

29
Q

What is being used for Muscle fibers to produce high-energy phosphate molecules?

A

Carbohydrates, Fatty Acids & Amino Acids

30
Q

Where does muscle contractions comes from?

A

Food.

Carbs, fatty acids, amino acids

31
Q

What is the nutrient that must have for myosin & actin to occur repeatedly?

A. Magnesium
B. Amino acids
C. Calcium

A

C. Calcium

32
Q

What are the metabolic pathways that responsible to generate ATP?

A
  1. Glycolysis
  2. Fatty acids oxidation
  3. Oxidation of certain amino acids
33
Q

What makes ATP depleted quickly?

A

High intensity exercise

34
Q

What is the Anaerobic mechanism for ATP generation?

A

Creatine Phosphate
Glycolysis to lactic acid (anaerobic glycolysisl
Adenylyl kinase (myokinase)

35
Q

What is the role of Creatine Phosphate in muscle fibers?

A
  1. Kick start for the 1st few seconds of the activity.
  2. Regenarate ATP during very intense exercise
  3. Transfer phosphate to ADP to recharge / replenish ATP
36
Q

Where does the Creatine Phosphate produce from?

A

CP in muscle fibers is produced in mitochondria and used cytosol to associate with sarcomeres.

37
Q

Which one is the enzyme that responsible for utilisation & reformation of Creatine Phosphate?

A. Creatine kinase
B. Myokinase
C. ATPase

A

A. Creatine Kinase

38
Q

What is the role of Anaerobic Glycolysis?

A
  1. To transform the Glucose to lactic acid during high intensity & short duration exercise
  2. ATP regeneration kicks in when CP is depleted.
39
Q

A
  1. Convert back to glucose in liver
  2. Fuel for the heart & skeletal muscle
  3. The higher intensity the more lactic acid gonna produce
40
Q

What is Adenylyl Kinase for in muscle fibers?

A

Helps to convert ADP & AMP back to ATP. So that ATP is replenished during intense exercise.
