Muscle metabolism

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.

Question
Answer
The supply of ATP depends on   the availability of oxygen &organic energy sources such as glucose & fatty acids  
🗑
Aerobic metabolism(respiration)   provides most ATP needed for contraction, uses O2 to generate large amounts of ATP from glucose or fatty acids  
🗑
In a resting muscle, most ATP is generated by   aerobic respiration of fatty acids.  
🗑
Anaerobic glycolysis(fermentation)   allows the cell to produce ATP in the absence of oxygen, but yield is limited & lactic acid, a toxic end product, is a major factor in muscle fatigue.  
🗑
What is used at peak activity to generate ATP   anaerobic glycolysis  
🗑
Creatine phosphate   releases stored energy to convert ADP to ATP  
🗑
Slow oxidative (SO), slow-twitch, red, or type I fibers   Have high concentrations of myoglobin Used in endurance actvities(areobic): Running a marathon, maintaining posture, or antigravity actities  
🗑
Fast glycolytic (FG), fast-twitch, or whit fibers   Used in Short term activites/intsense or powerful activities(anaerobic glycolosis): Hitting a baseball.  
🗑
Intermediate(fast oxidative)Type IIA fibers   Most human muscles are mixtures of these fibers Greater resistance to fatigue compared to fast fibers  
🗑
Pale muscles(white muscles) are dominated by   fast fibers  
🗑
Dark muscles(red muscles) are dominated by   slow fibers and myoglobin  
🗑
hypertrophy   is the increase of the size of muscle cells  
🗑
Atrophy   reduction or loss of muscle mass  
🗑
Anaerobic endurance   Time over which muscular contractions are sustained by glycolysis and ATP/CP reserves  
🗑
Aerobic endurance   Time over which muscle can continue to contract while supported by mitochondrial activities  
🗑
Myoglobin   A protien which has oxygen attached to it, provides extra oxygen for the muscle to maintain a high level of activity for a longer period of time.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
