Exercise and metabolism (B.40)

Cards (15)

  • Effect of exercise on heart rate during exercise?
    Increase
  • effect of exercise on breathing rate and breathing volume during exercise?
    Increase
  • Why does heart rate, breathing rate and breathing volume increase during exercise
    supply muscles with more oxygenated blood
  • which type of respiration occurs if there is insufficient oxygen available?
    Anaerobic respiration
  • two effects of long periods of anaerobic respiration
    Build - up of lattice acid and oxygen debt
  • where is lactic acid brown down?(Ht only)
    The liver
  • how is lactic acid broken down?
    reacts with oxygen to convert to glucose
  • Define 'Oxygen debt'
    Amount of O2 required to break down lactic acid
  • How would the lung capacity of an athlete compare to a non-athlete
    larger
  • how would the resting heart rate of an athlete compare to a non-athlete
    Lower
  • Define "Metabolism"
    Sum of all reactions in a cell/body
  • During metabolism, glucose is converted into which three substances?
    1.Starch 2.glycogen 3.cellulose
  • During metabolism, lipids are formed from which molecules?
    1 molecule glycerol, 3 molecules fatty acids
  • During metabolism, which substances are used for form amino acids?
    glucose and nitrate ions
  • two ongoing processes that are part of metabolism
    Respiration and deamination
