Term
Phosphofructokinase is inhibited by
Definition
high concentrations ATP
Term
The rate of glycolysis and the citric acid cycle are synchronised by
Definition
the inhibition of phosphfructokinase by citrate
Term
If citrate consumption increases
Definition
glycolysis increases the supply of acetyl groups to the citric acid cycle
Term
Creatine phosphate in muscles break down
Definition
releasing energy and phosphate which is used to convert ADPATP by phosphorylation
Term
During Anaerobic Respiration
Definition
only glycolysis occurs
Term
In Anaerobic Respiration glucose is broken down
Definition
into pyruvate which is then broken down into Lactic Acid
Term
The oxygen debt gets repaid when
Definition
exercise comes to a halt and energy from aerobic respiration is used to convert lactic acid back to glucose.
Term
Skeletal muscle fibres fall into two categories:
Definition
Type 1 (slow-twitch muscle fibres) and Type 2 (fast twitch muscle fibres)
Term
Slow twitch muscles have
Definition
many mitochondria, a good blood supply, high concentration of myglobin and use fats as fuel
Term
Fast twitch muscles have
Definition
few mitochondria, a small blood supply, low concentrations of myglobin and use glycogen as fuel
Term
Activities using fast twitch muscles include
Definition
sprinting and weightlifting
Term
Activities using slow twitch muscles include
Definition
long distance running and skiing.
