Frage 1

Frage
Choose the correct statements about sources of energy for skeletal muscle contraction
Antworten
  • ATP can be recycled and the stores are long lasting.
  • ATP is limited in it's stores and only fuels contraction for a few seconds.
  • CP, creatine phosphate, is stored in the muscle.
  • Pi is a product of ATP hydrylosis, called inorganic phosphate.
  • Energy from CP breakdown is used to resynthesize ATP.
  • With CP you can have a contraction up to 50 s.
  • The third back up system for energy generation in muscle is the metabolism of glucose, which can be aerobic or anaerobic.
  • The breakdown of glucose is anabolic and therefore produces free energy to resynthesize CP and ATP.

Frage 2

Frage
Anaerobic metabolism is the breakdown of glucose via glycolysis to make ATP.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 3

Frage
Aerobic metabolism takes pyruvate from glycolysis to make Acetyl CoA, and then uses oxygen, to produce less ATP than anaerobic metabolism.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 4

Frage
Choose the incorrect statement about anaerobic metabolism.
Antworten
  • No O2 is used.
  • It is slow.
  • It is a short term form of energy production.
  • It is the result of glycolysis.

Frage 5

Frage
Choose the incorrect statement about aerobic metabolism.
Antworten
  • It is faster than anaerobic metabolism.
  • O2 is used.
  • It is facilitated by a process called oxidative phosphorylation.
  • It is a long term and stable process.

Frage 6

Frage
Which stage of skeletal muscle movement uses the MOST ATP?
Antworten
  • Excitation
  • Relaxation
  • Contraction

Frage 7

Frage
Oxygen binding to iron appears red. Iron is a central part of myoglobin in the muscles, so the more oxygen present in the muscle, the redder the colour appears.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 8

Frage
Choose the correct statement.
Antworten
  • Red muscle fibres are high in myoglobin and low in aerobic enzymes.
  • Red muscle fibres are high in myoglobin and high in aerobic enzymes.
  • White muscle fibres are high in myoglobin and low in aerobic enzymes.
  • White muscle fibres are low in myoglobin and high in aerobic enzymes.

Frage 9

Frage
Which type of muscle fibre would a marathon runner/endurance athlete develop?
Antworten
  • More white and intermediate fibres.
  • More red and intermediate fibres.

Frage 10

Frage
Choose the incorrect statement about muscle contractions.
Antworten
  • A twitch is a single muscle contraction.
  • The calcium level in the sarcoplasm lasts longer than the muscle tension.
  • A series of spaced twitches with increasing tension amplitude is a treppe.
  • Complete tetanus is a series of closely spaced twitches summated where you cannot differentiate individual twitches.

Frage 11

Frage
Which of these is NOT responsible for increasing amplitudes in a treppe?
Antworten
  • Increasing and sustained calcium levels in the sarcoplasm
  • Increased sensitivity to calcium of myosin and actin
  • Heat
  • Cross bridge volatility

Frage 12

Frage
Choose the correct statements about muscle training.
Antworten
  • By strength training you increase the number of muscle fibres.
  • By strength training you increase the number of contractile filaments.
  • Hypertrophy is the decreasing of contractile filaments.
  • Increasing the number of contractile filaments means you rely more on aerobic metabolism.
  • Endurance training increases the number of blood vessels (capillaries), mitochondria, and aerobic enzymes in muscle.
  • Endurance training improves aerobic metabolism.
