Aerobic respiration

________ exercise requires oxygen and is of ________ duration than __________ exercise

1. Aerobic 2. Longer 3. Anaerobic

Acetylcholine

A neurotransmitter

When muscles are actively contracting, the process requires large amounts of energy in the form of

ATP

The neurotransmitter released from the synaptic vesicles that initiates an action potential in the sarcolemma is

Acetylcholine

Skeletal muscle fiber contraction begins when

Acetylcholine is released into the neuromuscular junction and binds to receptors on the sarcolemma.

Epimysium, perimysium, and endomysium

In the aging process, skeletal muscle fibers decrease in diameter, causing

Decreased muscular strength and endurance, and rapid fatigue

Why do fast fibers fatigue more rapidly than slow fibers?

Fast fibers use anaerobic metabolism; better at generalizing short bursts of strength

What is the relationship among fatigue, anaerobic glycolysis, and oxygen debt?

Fatigue and the lack of oxygen cause anaerobic glycolysis.

What are the differences between isometric contraction and isotonic contraction?

Isometric: muscle stays the same length even if the force of contraction increases. Isotonic: muscle is at a constant pulling w/ the same force, but shortens

The ability of skeletal muscles to produce continuous contractions results in the ability of the body to

Maintain posture and body position

During a specific action, the insertion is the
