CELL RESPIRATION
Its the controlled released of energy in the form of ATP from organic compounds in cells
This process occurs in the mitocondria
ATP
When ATP is combined with water, energy is released (Hydrolysis) . As a result of this, ATP loses the last phosphate group of the chain, giving us ADP. This last process, release great amount of energy
ADP can be synthesized to ATP by adding a phospathe group , this is called the ATP cycle.
METABOLISM
Anabolism
In this process, small, simple molecules are built up into larger, more complex ones
Catabolism
Large, complex molecules in the body are broken down into smaller, simple ones
Glycolysis
the breakdown of glucose by enzymes, releasing energy and pyruvic acid.
Glycogenolysis
It is the breakdown of glycogen to glucose.
If the glycogen came from the skeletal muscle, it doesn't enter in the bloodstream (That means that it is used by the skeletal muscles)
Glycogenesis
The formation of glycogen, the primary carbohydrate stored in the liver and muscle cells of animals, from glucose.
Gluconeogénesis
The process of making glucose (sugar) from its own breakdown products or from the breakdown products of lipids (fats) or proteins
ENERGY SYSTEMS
SISTEM 1 - ATP-CP
5-15s
Fast burst of energy - Immediate energy
Helps to produce more ATP
Works fast (you don't have to wait until O2 its available)
There are no fatigue by-products
SISTEM 2 - ANAEROBIC LACTIC ACID
The glycogen its broke down through a process called glycolysis
1-2 min
Produce 2 ATPs and Pyruvate Acid, this one its converted into lactic acid because of the lack of oxygen.
SISTEM 3 - AEROBIC
Long distances, for a long time
Produce 32 ATP and H20 + CO2
Needs oxygen
Use fats
EPOC
From the moment we start the activity, we need oxygen. Our body get to an oxygen deficit because the demand of oxygen its higher that oxygen that our body gets (need and demand do not match)
At the end of the activity, our breath its still fast to offset anaerobic bi-products and repair tissue.
