Myoglobin
What's the quickest way for a muscle to make ATP
Phosphagen System
After 15 seconds muscle cells begin making ATP via which method
Anaerobic Respiration
ATP + Creatine ---> CP + ADP

Name this method of ATP production
Phosphagen System
Glycolysis and Fermentation are forms of which type of respiration
Anaerobic (w/o oxygen)
Aerobic Respiration occurs where
Mitochondria
During strenuous exercise, muscle cells synthesize ATP via
Anaerobic Respiration
Which type of respiration is active during long-term exercise
Aerobic Respiration
Glucose --> Pyruvic Acid

Pyruvic Acid --> Lactic Acid + 2 ATP

NAME THIS PROCESS
Anaerobic Respiration

(aka Glycolysis or Fermentation)
