What is direct calorimetry? 1 cal = increase temperature of ___ g of water by 

Measure of heat production

 1 cal = increase temperature of 1 g of water by 1°C 

100

How can fuel use be determined? 

if CO2 production is measured

 CHO/FAT metabolism depends on O2 availability & produces CO2

100

How much oxygen is needed to combust x carbon glucose?

The number of oxygen is always equal to the # of carbon and the RER is 1 

100

"Fat burns in the flame _______"

carbohydrates 

100

What happens when lots of glycogen is depleted during prolonged high intensity exercise

decrease rate of glycolysis and production of pyruvate

 decrease Krebs cycle intermediates

 decrease fat oxidation

200

What are sources of hormones? 

endocrine glands

nerve fibers

other tissues such as kidneys 

200

What are the magnitude of effect dependent on...?

Magnitude of effect dependent on…

  1. How much Hormone is there

  2. # of receptors on the cell

  3. Affinity of the receptor

200

What term is "the combined activity of all the tissues regulating hormone release and control bodily function" 

Neuroendocrinology 

200

What are the 4 factors of how blood hormone concentration? 

RATE OF SECRETION

RATE OF METABOLISM

QUALITY OF TRANSPORT PROTEIN

CHANGES IN PLASMA VOLUME 

200

What is downregulation and what is upregulation? 

  • Downregulation

    • Decrease in receptors in response to high hormones

  • Upregulation

    • Increase in receptors in response to low hormones

300

What are mechanisms of hormone action? 

Altering DNA activity to modify PRO synthesis

Activating 2nd messenger via G protein

Altering membrane transport 

300

What happens with non steroid hormone action? 

Hormone cannot get through the membrane, there's need to be a receptor

Not derived by lipids

300

True or false do steroid hormones diffuse the the membrane response and are fat derivatives? 

True!

300

Describe the Cyclic AMP second messenger mechanism? 

Hormone enters G protein, activates adenylate cyclase

Uses ATP to activate cAMP 

This activates PKA which triggers a cellular response such as…

300

Describe the phospholipase second messenger mechanism? 

  • Phospholipase C

    • breaks down PIP2

    • phosphatidylinositol

  • IP3

    • inositol triphosphate

    • part of PIP2

    • causes Ca2+ release when it reaches the ER

  • Ca2+ activates calmodulin

    • Ca2+ binding protein

  • DAG activates PKC

  • More cellular responses



400

What are the functions related to exercise? 

1. Alter enzyme activity

2. Alter membrane transport

3. Alter protein synthesis

400

What is the role of Growth Hormone on blood glucose? 

  • GH is slow acting

  • It blocks glucose

  • GH is better in a trained person than non-trained

  • GH supports cortisol

  • GH increases with exercise intensity



400

Secretion is controlled by ____________. 

Hypothalamus

400

Where is the release site and the primary action of Glucagon?

Release: Pancreas (alpha cells) 

Primary Action: Increased nutrient release, and increase liver glycogenolysis and FFA release

400

What is the role of cortisol?

  • Slow acting

    • affect adipose tissue breakdown of triglyceride fatty acids

  • Around moderate intensity

  • Decrease during low-intensity

  • Increase during high-intensity

500

What is the site of release and primary action of Norepinephrine

Release: SNS FIBERs and adrenal medula

Action: Increase lipolysis and increase cardiorespiratory function

500

What is the maintenance of plasma glucose? 

Increase pro breakdown for gluconeogenesis

Increase FFA mobilization

Increase glucose synthesis

Blocks uptake of glucose into cells

500

Plasma glucose is maintained by 4 processes... what are they? 

1. Mobilization of glucose from liver glycogen stores

2. Mobilization of FFA from adipose tissue (sparing)

3. Gluconeogenesis from amino acids, lactic acid, and glycerol

4. Blocking the entry of glucose into cells 

500

What are fast acting hormones and what are slow acting hormones? 

  • Fast-acting

    • Epinephrine, norepinephrine, insulin, and glucagon

    • Release quickly and fix things quickly

  • Permissive or slow-acting

    • Thyroxine, cortisol, and growth hormone

500

What are the effects of training on glucagon and insulin after training? 

Maintenance of glucose with small triangles in insulin and glucagon

Increase glucagon sensitivity in liver

Decrease glucose uptake by muscle

Increase in muscle’s use of FFA for fuel

EPI can improve blood glucose
