Types of Energy
Carbohydrates are an available energy source, including monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.
Whar are carbohydrates?
Enzymes facilitate a chemical reaction by lowering activation energy.
What are the role of enzymes?
More effecient use of energy from a given substrate like glucose.
What is aerobic exercise?
Can oxidize substrates, produces some ATP, contains (fats, proteins, and carbohydrates), and hydrogen will be removed to the ETC.
What is the function of the Kreb's Cycle?
Glucose, Fructose, and Galactose are all considered simple sugars.
What are Monosaccharides?
A series of enzymatic reaction that results in ATP production.
What is Glycolsis?
Once substrates go through the steps to enter the aerobic pathways, it will enter the oxidative zone to enter the Kreb's Cycle.
What happens during the aerobic pathways?
It will combine with oxaloacetate to form citrate. Citrate will then go through reactions to form 2 CO2 and 1 ATP.
What is Aceytle-CoA role in teh cycle?
Fats can be in both plant and animal tissues.
What can be used to metabolize energy?
There will be two pyruvic acid, two NADH and Hydrogen molecules, and a net gain of two ATP molecules.
What are the final products of glycolysis?
Running, biking, swimming will be considered. It just needs to elevate the heart rate!
What types of exercises are considered aerobic?
Acetyl-CoA of pyruvate enters the cycle, for each molecule that enters the cycle will produce 2 CO2, 1 ATP, 3 NADH, 1FADH2. The ETC helps with ATP production.
What are the three stages of oxidative phosphorylation?
Triglycerides are stored in fat cells that break into 3 fatty acids and glycerol for energy.
What are the storage forms of fat in the body?
It can produce energy for aerobic and anaerobic metabolism.
What happens when you breakdown glucose to pyruvate?
Carbohydrates and triglycerides.
What are primarily aerobic substrates?
In the Mitochondria.
Where does the Krebs cycle occur?
ATP is composed of adenine, ribose, 3 phosphate molecules. Breaking down ATP releases energy to the cell.
What are the most important energy molecule in a cell?
In the sarcoplasm of muscle cells.
Where does glycolysis occur?
Increased blood supply will increase the capillaries around muscle fibers to transfer oxygen.
When is aerobic metabolism at its best?
Produces majority of the ATP during aerboic metabolism and will result in the oxygen oxidizing to act as the last electron acceptor by forming water.
The ETC occurs after the cycle because?
