Metabolism
The total of all energy transformations that occur in the body
ATP
Stored chemical energy that links energy yielding & energy requiring functions within a cell
ATP-PC
lasts about 15-30 seconds
Lactic Acid System
oxygen is not utilized but is present in order to regenerate ATP, by product is lactic acid,
lasts about 2-3 minutes
Aerobic Respiration
3 Components, all require oxygen to be present & is utilized
3 components of Aerobic Respiration
Glycolysis, Krebs, ETS/OP
Cellular Respiration
process by which cells transfer energy from food to ATP, relies on oxygen
anaerobic
not requiring or utilizing oxygen
aerobic
requires, utilizes oxygen
Glycogenolysis
stored glycogen is broken down to provide glucose
Glycolysis
responsible for the initial breakdown of glucose. begins with glucose or glycogens ends with
pyruvate or lactate
Gluconeogenesis
creation of glucose in liver from non carbohydrate sources, particularly glycerol, lactate
or pyruvate
Glut1
utilized when resting muscles have stable levels of glucose
Glut 2
when insulin and glucose levels are high
beta oxidation
breaks off successive pairs of carbon atoms from FFA which are then used to form Acetyl CoA
ways to trigger extracellular gluconeogenesis
ph level decrease, glucose level decrease, temperature increase gluconeogenesis will
begin
Extracellular Gluconeogenesis
Necessary to maintain blood glucose levels during exercise
