Define: anaerobic threshold
-is an oxygen supply versus demand problem
-hypoxia versus hypoxemia
--Hypoxia deficiency in oxygen concentration (environmental)
--Hypoxemia insufficient oxygenation of the blood
Define: Work Metabolism
These processes/transformation of metabolism ultimately depend on biological oxidation

foodstuffs + O2 --> ATP + CO2 + H2O + Heat
Define: Metabolism
-Metabolism can be defined as the sum of all processes occurring in a living organism
-Metabolism involves all the chemical reactions of biological molecules within the body; which includes anabolic and catabolic chemical reactions
-is the sum total of all chemical reactions that occur with in a living cell or the ability to produce (ATP) and use energy
-Anabolism and catabolism
Define: Anabolism
-The energy-requiring process by which small molecules are joined to form larger molecules
-Building or endergonic
Define: Catabolism
-The energy-releasing process by which larger molecules are broken down into smaller molecules
-Braking apart or exergonic
Define: energy and name the different types
-energy is the capacity to do or perform work
-the six different types
1 chemical
2 mechanical
3 heat
4 light
5 electrical
6 nuclear
State the 1st Law of Thermodynamics
states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but reater is transformed form one from to another (conservation of Energy). We are interested in mechanical energy (human movement), Heat, and chemical
Define: Metabolic pathways
-A metabolic pathway is a series of chmical reactions whereby chemical transformations occur ending up in the formation of ATP. All metabolic pathways begin with an INITIAL SUBSTRATE, progresses through INTERMEDIATES, and ends with a FINAL PRODUCT
What is the goal of the Metabolic pathway
ATP is the goal for the final product
How do we get energy out of the chemicals within our bodies
Controlled chemical reactions:
1 glycolysis (CHO)
2 beta oxidation (Fats)
3 deamination / pyruvate alanine cycle (AA)
4 kreb's cycle / citric acid cycle (general reaction)
5 electron transport chain / oxidative phosphorylation (general reaction)
What is the purpose of these metabolic pathways / chemical reactions
To form a usable energy source (free energy) that can being used by cells. that usable energy form is Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)
what is free energy used for : Mechanical work
muscular contraction, cellular movement , circulation, digestion
what is free energy used for: Chemical Work
Biosynthesis of cellular molecules, fuel storage, tissue building
what is free energy used for: Transport work
Concentrating chemicals in intracellular and extracellular fluids
what is free energy used for: Heat production
Temperature regulation
what is free energy used for: Glandular work
Secretions
what is free energy used for: Nerve transmission
Nerve impulse generation
How are chemical reaction controlled in the body
Enzymes and Substrates or substrates available
Define: Enzymes
Which lower the energy of activation - thereby enhancing chemical reactions. Enzymes - are made up of amino acids in a unique sequence (primary structure). Amino acids also form their secondary and tertiary structures.

-All enzymes are proteins; however not all proteins are enzymes

-=Amont of substrate or substrates available make enzymens work
How do enzymes act as biological catalysts
-Increases the rate of a chemical reaction
-is not changed during that reaction
-does not changes the nature of the reaction or final product
Explane how pyruvate is different than lactate
Pyruvate is
- 3 C, 3 O2, and 3 H

Lactate is
- 3 C, 3 O2, and 5 H

The two H came from NADH2 --> NAD (lactate dehydrogenase and enzymatic reaction)
What are the high energy compounds in the body
-NADH2 (indirect energy)
-FADH2 (indirect energy)
-ATP (direct energy)
Where in the kreb's cycle does Citric acid happen
enzymatic reaction 1
Where in the kreb's cycle does cis-Aconite Acid happen
enzymatic reaction 2

enzymatic reaction 3
Where in the kreb's cycle does alpha-Ketoglutaric acid happen
enzymatic reaction 4
Where in the kreb's cycle does Succinyl CoA happen
enzymatic reaction 5
Where in the kreb's cycle does Succinic acid happen
enzymatic reaction 6
Where in the kreb's cycle does Fumaric acid happen
enzymatic reaction 7
Where in the kreb's cycle does Malic acid happen
enzymatic reaction 8
Where in the kreb's cycle does Oxaloactic acid happen
enzymatic reaction 9
When do substrates come into the picture inside the matrix
-Between E3 and E4 (substrate NAD)
-Between E4 and E5 (Substrate NAD)
-Between E5 and E6 (substrate ADP
-Between E7 and E8 (substrate FAD)
-Between E8 and E9 (substrate NAD)
Explane the Kreb's cycle ATP production
-3NADH2 --> ECT --> 1NADH2 --> 3ATP --> 9ATP

-1FADH2 --> ECT --> 1FADH2 --> 2ATP --> 2ATP

-1ATP

-total ATP's 12 from one Kreb cycle
What is the fuel for the kreb's cycle
Acetyl CoA
How is Acetyl Co
