a. 2

Why is oxygen consumption often expressed as milliliters of oxygen per kilogram of body weight per minute (ml kg -1 min -1)?

Absolute VO2 does not take into account a person's body weight so relative VO2 is calculated based on body weight to remove the discrepancy of size differences of people.

What is ATP and how is it important in metabolism?

Adenosine Triphosphate - it transports the energy needed for all metabolic activites

Describe the possible causes of fatigue during exercise bouts lasting 15 to 30 seconds and 2 to 4 hours.

After about 10 seconds, phosphagen has become depleted and lactate starts to build and cause fatigue . In 2 to 4 hours exercise glycogen which supplies the energy becomes deleted causing fatigue to increase.

What are basal metabolic rate and resting metabolic rate, and how do they differ?

Basla metabolism rate measures the number of calories burned based on very restrictive conditions. Resting metabolic rate also measures calories burned but under less restrictive conditions. BMR is measured in a clinic after set durations of rest, sleep and fasting while RMR is not required to be done in the clinic and sleep and fasting are less restrictive

Outline the factors that are responsible for the improved capacity of muscles to generate energy during endurance exercise.

Chronic endurance training increases the mitochondrial respiration and ability to produce ATP. It also increases glucose and FFA delivery, thus improving energy generation

Define direct calorimetry and indirect calorimetry and describe how they are used to measure energy expenditure.

Direct caliometry is the direct measurements of heat dissipated from an individual while indirect caliometry measures expired gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide)

What role does oxygen play in the process of acrobic metabolism?

Doing aerobic metabolism oxygen combines with the H++ to form water thus preventing acidification of cells without oxygen the oxidation phosphorylation process is minimized

Describe the relative contributions of fat, carbohydrate, and protein to meeting energy demands during exercise.

During short, high-intensity activities carbohydrates provide most of energy demand (~95%) while proteins and fats provide very little. During longer duration high-intensity activities carbohydrates still provide the most (75%), fats provide another 15%, and proteins the rest. During light, long duration activities, fats begin to provide similar levels as carbohydrates and protein very little. At rest fats provide about 60% need and carbs about 35%

Describe the roles of NAD and FAD in oxidative phosphorylation.

During the ETC process, NAD releases its protons and electrons at the beginning of the chain and FAD releases them later in the chain. NADH produces 3 ATP molecules and FADH produces 2.

Describe the relative contributions of each of the three basic energy systems to meeting the energy demands during (a) very brief (5 to 10 seconds) maximal muscular activity, (b) high-intensity muscular activity lasting 1 to 2 minutes, (c) moderate-intensity muscular activity lasting for 30 minutes or more.

During very brief (5-10 seconds) maximal exercise the ATP-PC system provides the energy demands. During 1-2 minute, high-intensity exercise the ATP-PC system provides the first 5-10 seconds of energy and then the glycolytic system takes over. For moderate-intensity activity the aerobic system provide most of the energy.

What is economy of effort? How is it measured? What is its relationship to sport performance?

Economy of effort is the theory that as skill increases energy demands at a given intensity is reduced. It is determined by variation in mechanics, specificity of training , body type and strength, Increased economy at any intensity means improved performance

List the factors that affect basal metabolic rate (BMR) and explain how they might alter one's BMR.

Factors that can affect BMR are age, stress, fever, and hormones. As we age, our BMR reduces due to reduction in muscle mass. Stress, illness (which causes fever) can affect how our bodies use calories.

Discuss the relationship between fat-free mass and basal metabolic rate (BMR).

Fat-Fee mass is metabolically active and allows the body to perform work, thus increasing BMR.

Discuss the influence of body mass (weight) on energy expenditure during running.

It takes more energy to move more mass while running. This means that heavier people need to improve their fitness (and energy production) to compete with lighter people.

What factors might explain why trained competitive female swimmers are more efficient in swimming than trained competitive male triathletes who have no competitive swimming background?

Females have greater resistance to skeletal muscle fatigue and a greater capacity to recover than males. Males tend to have greater muscle strength and power and perform better at strength activities

What is lactate and why is it important?

Lactate is a by-product of the glycolytic system. It is important because it can be converted to pyruvate which can be used as fuel in the heart, liver, and non-exercising muscles.

What is lactate threshold? How is it measured? What is its relationship to sport performance?

Lactate threshold is the first accumulation of blood lactate above resting concentrations. It is typically measured by taking small blood samples at different times during exercise. Having a higher threshold will help improve performance.

What is maximal oxygen uptake? How is it measured? What is its relationship to sport performance?

Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) is the maximal rate of oxygen consumption during incremental exercise. It is measured using equipment tat measures ocean and carbon dioxide while doing exercises typically on a treadmill. The higher the VO2max the better health and performance are.

What is the role of PCr in energy production? Describe the relationship between muscle ATP and PCr during sprint exercise

PCr is used to regenerate ATP to provide a relatively constant supply under rest conditions and to recycle ATP during exercise until it is used up. During sprint exercise PCr supplies ATP relatively constantly but is used up very quickly.

What is the respiratory exchange ratio (RER)? Explain how it is used to determine the oxidation of carbohydrate and fat.

RER his the ratio of carbon dioxide used relative to the amount of oxygen consumed. Carbohydrates and fats produce different amounts of carbon dioxide, the RER can be used to determine the relative contributions of fat and carbohydrates on metabolism

Why are the ATP-PCr and glycolytic energy systems considered anaerobic?

The ATP-PCr and glycolytic energy systems are considered anaerobic because they do not require oxygen to generate ATP

Describe the by-products of energy production from ATP-PCr, glycolysis, and oxidation.

The by-products of ATP-PCr is creatine, glycolysis is lactic acid and oxidation is water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2)

What is the primary substrates used to provide energy at rest? During high-intensity exercise?

The primary substrates or carbohydrates (50%) and fats (50%) provide energy at rest. Carbohydrates provide energy for high-intensity exercise.

What is the relationship between oxygen consumption and energy production?

The tiger oxygen consumption is the more oxygen is available for energy production and thus better performance.

Discuss the relationship between a muscle's fiber-type composition and its oxidative capacity.

Type I muscle fibers have a greater capacity or aerobic (endurance) activities, while type II rely more or anaerobic systems and are better for sprint or strength activities.

Why do athletes with high VO2max values perform better in endurance events than those with lower values?
