300

Which signaling protein involved in mitochondrial biogenesis is also involved in blocking the muscle hypertrophy pathway.

AMPK

400
  1. Which oxygen transporter is also involved in carrying CO2?

    1. myoglobin

    2. hemoglobin

hemoglobin

400

400

Name the rate limiting enzyme for the Krebs cycle, ETC, and glycolysis.

1. AMPK

2. p53

3. IGF-1

IGF-1

500
  1. What is the weakest interaction involved in the stabilization of quaternary and tertiary structures?


BONUS: What four interactions stabilize the tertiary/quaternary structures


1. Hydrophobic interactions



BONUS: electrostatic bond, disulfide bond, van der waals interaction, and hydrophobic interactions

500

Which muscle fiber type is recruited first?

a. Type I

b. Type IIA

c. Type IIX

DOUBLE: Describe how are muscle fibers are recruited and what we call this process

c. Type I




the body recruits motor units from smallest to largest based on the strength needed for the task and size principle

500

Which of the following is not a product of glycolysis?

  1. 2 pyruvate

  2. 1 FADH

  3. 2 NADH

  4. 2 ATP

Bonus: How is aerobic metabolism different? Explain why the net ATP production of glycolysis is 2.

2. 1 FADH

Aerobic glycolysis requires oxygen and travels from the cytoplasm into the mitochrondria. We are able to move into the membrane through the conversion of pyruvate into acetyl CoA by decarboxylation.

The net ATP production of glycolysis is 2 because it cancels out the 2 ATP molecules it invested at the start during the payoff phase.  

500

What three key enzymes assist in the process of lipolysis?


DOUBLE: What is lipolysis?

ATGL, HSL, and MGL



 Breakdown of a triacylglycerol

500

Which of the following is the master regulator of muscle mitochondrial content?

  1. TFM

  2. PGC1alpha

  3. NRF

  4. CAMKII

  5. BONUS: Describe the way that way that satellite cells assist in muscle hypertrophy














2. PGC1alpha


BONUS: fuses with the muscle fiber thus increasing the nuclues content of the cell to increase gene and protein transcription
