Lactic Acid System
This system work anaerobically
The site of the reaction is in the muscle cells in the sarcoplasm
The controlling enzyme is PFK ( Glucose - Pyruvic acid)
- LDH (Pyrovic - Lactic acid)
- GPP Glycogen - Glucose
- LDH (Pyrovic - Lactic acid)
Energy Yield = 2 ATP
High intensity
- Long Duration
By Products - Lactic acid
Specific stages of the lactic acid system
- Stage 1: Glycogen(GPP) - Glucose(PFK) - Pyruvis acid + Energy
- Lactic acid (LDH)
- Coupled reaction
- Energy + 2ADP + 2P - 2ATP
- Stage 1: Glycogen(GPP) - Glucose(PFK) - Pyruvis acid + Energy
Must always end up with Lactic acid
Advantages of the Lactic acid system
- Provides energy for high intensity exercise lasting between 10 - 180 seconds
- This can work aerobically and Anaerobically
- The anearobic require less reactions than the aerobic system so it provides a quicker supply of energy
- This can work aerobically and Anaerobically
- Provides energy for high intensity exercise lasting between 10 - 180 seconds
Disadvantages of the Lactic acid system
- Not as quick as the ATP/PC system
- Produces alot of lactic acid
- Net effect is muscle fatique and pain
- Produces alot of lactic acid
- Not as quick as the ATP/PC system
