Marathon runners often practice "carb loading" prior to a race. The purpose of this practice is to increase the stores of energy available for muscles to use. Explain how energy is used by muscle fibers and how this practice of "card loading" benefits the runner's muscles. Be sure to use the terms glucose, glycogen, creatine, phosphate, and ATP in the explanation.
What would be the ATP yield per molecule of glucose in the muscle if glycogen were the source of the glucose?
If fatty acids are a more efficient storehouse of energy than glucose or glycogen, why aren't they used immediately to drive muscle contraction?

- When an animal dies, its limbs and body become stiff because its muscles go into rigor mortis (literally, rigor mortis means “stiffness of death”). Why would the loss of ATP following death cause this to happen?arrow_forwardMuscle contraction involves a protein conformational change called the power stroke.

- What are two roles of ATP during muscle contraction?arrow_forwardIn the past, it was believed that lactic acid accumulated in the muscles of tracking athletes as a result of intense exertion. For this reason, coaches would have athletes slowly jog to move more oxygen into the muscles so lactic acid would be oxidized and there would be less soreness the next day. Based on current research, what is the most likely consequence of lactate production in the athlete’s performance? What is more likely to be the cause of muscle soreness?arrow_forwardDiscuss the specific role of ATP in muscle contraction.arrow_forward
