Glycogen

hyperuricaemia (HFI). Another consequence of the depletion of inorganic phosphate is the ineffectiveness of phosphorylation in the glycogenolysis pathway (biochem). Inorganic phosphate is the substrate of hepatic glycogen phosphorylase (biochem). So when inorganic phosphate is deficient, hepatic glycogen phosphorylase cannot proceed phosphorylation normally, leading to an impaired glycogenolysis and eventually hypoglycaemia…

form of carbohydrates can vary from sports drinks, gels, or nutritious snacks. After exercise, adequate amounts of carbohydrates must be consumed in order to replenish muscle glycogen stores and refuel. Carbohydrates should be ingested at least 30 minutes after training or competing every two hours for 4-6 hours to replace glycogen levels and ensure recovery as quickly as…

Effects of Carbohydrate Ingestion Pre- Grip Strength Exercise on Muscle Endurance In the world of fitness, nutritional supplements are ingested with intent to maximize the results of strength exercise. In achieving favorable adaptations to exercise, sufficient nutrient consumption is critical. Also important is the timing of nutrient consumption, as greater benefits are observed when ingestion takes place in a time frame close to the exercise (Laurenson & Dubé, 2014). Previous literature…

Welcome and hold tight to your seat because what you are about to witness is extraordinary peace of research supportive by word class science. Following work of one of the most influential doctors, Phd and nutrion gurus. Report discusses some of the most advance anabolic strategies, it will blow your mind. Analysing three day diet plan of Darren who is currently in preparing himself for massive bulking season in order to dominate within his desired sport of bodybuilding. Areas of discussion…

The Effect of Insulin and Glucagon Before and After Meals Lucy Foley Course number and section Experiment Date Lab Partners Introduction Blood glucose is the preferred energy source for our bodies. Blood glucose is the preferred fuel source for ATP production and neurons absolutely have to have glucose. Other cells can use alternative nutrients, such as fatty acids, glycerol, and amino acids. Without glucose, neurons cannot function meaning humans could seizure and/or die. There are two…

During immense physical activity the blood glucose level will drop. This is due to your body needing and using more energy, so it is using up the glucose in the blood. For example during the rainbow rage athletes could expect to see their blood glucose levels continually drop throughout the 106 km track. Due to the intensity of the track and the distance their blood glucose levels will get very low and the alpha cells will be struggling to secrete enough glucagon to make sure the liver can keep…

Skeletal muscles are made of three different muscle fiber types. All muscle fibers are having varying amounts of mitochondria in them. Mitochondria helps the muscle be able to manufacture ATP for contraction. To differentiate between the three muscles is based on their make up. Slow oxidative (SO) or type one muscle fibers are composed with the most mitochondria to help them be fatigue resistant. SO muscle fibers stain the darkest because the enzyme targeted by the stain is most abundant in this…

Alpha-actinin-3 is a protein that is encoded by the “athletic gene”, ACTN3, in humans. ACTN3 is located at the long arm of chromosome 11 and encodes for the expression of alpha-actinin-3 protein in fast glycolytic muscle fibers. Fast glycolytic fibers, or type IIb, are responsible for the generation of rapid forceful contractions. There are some individuals who do not have a working version of this gene, which causes the muscle protein to not be created. These individuals are said to have the…

The results from the first experiment confirmed the hypothesis, to a certain extent, in that increasing stimulus strength will increase the force generated by the gastrocnemius muscle and visa versa till 0.2V, where the force germinated starts to decrease. As shown in Table 2 and Figure 2, the strength of the stimulus started from 0.00 V to 1.00V with 0.05 V and 0.10V intervals. At 0.10V the force generated by the muscle increases rapidly from 0mN to 288.33mN. The force generated by the muscle…

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy The body is like one huge scale that needs constant conservation to maintain balance for a stable state of survival. Homeostasis is the component that helps the body maintain balance. There are four core principles that help homeostasis keep balance which are, feedback loops, relationship of structure and function, gradients, and cell to cell communication. “Muscular homeostasis is cell to cell communication that coordinate their functions and maintain homeostasis…
