22
Q

Where is aerobic respiration found

23
Glucose--> Pyruvic Acid---> CO2+H2O+36ATP
Aerobic respirations
24
What the duration and how many net ATP is in anaerobic respiration
30-40 seconds | 2 ATP
25
Needs oxygen
Aerobic
26
Composed of bundles of cylindrical striated cells called fibers
Whole muscles
27
What is the speed of movement for smooth muscles
Steady slow pace
28
Small cylinder, extend from one bone to another
Muscle fiber cells
29
Where do you find smooth muscles
Hollow, visceral organs (stomach l, bladder, respiratory passages)
30
Hundreds of banded cylindrical myofibrils, run the length of each cells, they are the contractile elements of the cell called sacromere
Myofibril
31
What is the duration and net ATP produced in aerobic
Hours | 36 ATP
32
Actin filament, looks like a string of beads
Thin filaments
33
______ transmits electrical signal to axon terminals (on muscle cells)
Motor neuron (spinal cord)
34
_____ is released, called acetylcholine (ACh)
Neurotransmitter
35
ACh allows Na+ ions to rush into muscle cell, disrupts electrical balance is called _____
Action potentioal
36
___ conducted from one end of cell to other = contraction muscle cells
Electrical impulse
37
Results from oxygen debt during prolonged muscle activity
Muscle fatigue
38
K+ ions diffuse out of cell, NaK pump moves Na K ions back to their initial positions What is achieved
Resting state of muscles
39
Requires oxygen Occurs in mitochondria Hours
Aerobic respiration
40
___ found only in muscle fibers ____ transfers a phosphate group to ADP to make ATP 1 __ = 1ATP 15 seconds
Creatine phosphate
41
Myosin filament, rod shaped tails with head
Thick filaments
42
No oxygen available Occurs in mitochondria 30-60 seconds Accumulates lactic acid in muscles: which causes fatigue and muscle soreness
Anaerobic respiration
43
Contractions were muscles don't shorten, myofilaments are not moving, tension increases Usually against immobile object
Isometric contractions
44
A muscle that is unable to contract even though it is being stimulated
Muscle fatigue
45
Cause muscles to contract less and less effectively until stops altogether
Build up of lactic acid/ no oxygen/ lack of ATP
46
Increases blood supply, stores more oxygen, increases mitochondria
Aerobic endurance
47
Breathing deeply does what
Replenish oxygen in muscles
48
Myofilaments are sliding together normally muscle shortens and movement occurs
Isotonic contractions
49
State is continuous partial contractions Even relaxed
Muscle tone
50
Results from stimulation in systematic way from nervous system Paralysis no stimulation from nerves ___ loses ____
Muscle. Tone.
51
Stronger more flexible greater resistance to fatigue | Does not increase muscle mass
Aerobic endurance
52
Isometric, exercise where muscles are pushed against an immobile object Forcing muscles to contract as much force as possible Increase muscle cells, make more contractile filaments = big muscles Increase connective tissue
Resistance exercise
53
numerous vein and artery capillaries intertwined in the muscle to provide oxygen and remove wastes
Blood supply of SM
