- Classify characteristics of skeletal muscle energy metabolism by dragging each statement to its correct metabolic pathway for ATP synthesis. Allows time for the other two pathways to increase their ATP production Reaction is catalyzed by creatine kinase Blood glucose and fatty acids become fuel for this pathway after 10 minutes of exercise Lactic acid is a waste product produced by this pathway Rapid means of forming ATP during the first few seconds of muscle contraction Very rapid, requiring only a single enzymatic reaction Produces ATP used during moderate, prolonged levels of muscular activity This pathway requires oxygen Produces a significant fraction of ATP during high-intensity Produces ATP from glucose quickly in the absence of охудen Uses glycogen broken down into glucose during the first 5-10 minutes of moderate exercise Produces only small quantities of ATP for each metabolized glucose molecule exercise Oxidative Phosphorylation Creatine Phosphate Glycolysis Resetarrow_forwardHow would muscle contractions be affected if ATP wascompletely depleted in a muscle fiber?arrow_forwardExplain in detail why fast-twitch fibers will use anaerobic respiration rather than aerobic respiration even though aerobic respiration is about 20 times more efficient in terms of ATP produced per each glucose molecule?arrow_forward
- While the sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle was first described by nineteenth-century microscopists, its true significance was not ap-preciated until its intricate structure was revealed much later by the electron microscope. What could you tell a nineteenth-century microscopist to enlighten him or her about the structure of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and its role in the coupling of excitation and contraction?arrow_forward57. When skeletal muscle gets larger with exercise training, which of the following best describes the cellular changes. mostly fiber hyperplasia with some fiber hypertrophy entirely fiber hyperplasia equal contributions of fiber hypertrophy and fiber hyperplasia mostly fiber hypertrophy with some fiber hyperplasiaarrow_forwardTension generated in muscle fiber when the sarcomere length is 2 microns ....... tension generated in a muscle fiber when the sarcomere length is 2.25 microns. greater than less than equal toarrow_forward
- If you were to watch muscle tissue contract: Under a light microscope, would you see the muscle fibers get narrower, or the striations get thinner? Explain. At the EM level, focusing on one sarcomere, you would be able to see a region of thick filaments overlapping two regions of thin filaments. Use the structure of the thick filaments to explain how ONE region of thick filaments is able to pull in microfilament in two opposite directions (both toward the center of the sarcomere).arrow_forwardExplain the concept of the following in regard to muscle cells: power stroke does not need to be a super indepth answerarrow_forwardFor a skeletal muscle to remain rigidly contracted, it needs a continual supply of ATP. Yet, when a skeletal muscle runs out of ATP (in a corpse), it becomes rigid. How can you explain this seeming paradox? Explain how skeletal muscle may remain relaxed even if ATP levels are high.arrow_forward
