Why do muscles contain many mioochondria?
Muscles need ATP to contract. Mitochondria produce most of the ATP in the cell, so there are lots of mitochondria in muscle.
Why does muscles have the most mitochondria in it?
Muscles are metabolically active. Contractions of muscles cost ATP. So there are many mitochondria
During a race how do your muscles produce ATP after the store of ATP in muscles is used?
muscle cells produce ATP by cellular respiration through fermentation
What is the byproduct of ATP and is it bad for muscles?
The byproduct of ATP when it makes muscles work is ADP and energy. They are not harmful in anyway.
Where do cardiac muscles produce ATP?
Cellular respiration
What does ATP send to muscles?
tell's them what to do
ATP is used by the body as?
ATP is used by the body as a source of energy for the muscles.
What molecules do muscles get most of their energy from?
ATP. And they got ATP from e.g. phosphoenolpyruvate, from glucose.
What reaction provides energy to power muscles?
The reaction that provides energy to power muscles is ATP. ATP loses one phosphate group and converts to ADP.
Why can't ATP stored in muscles?
it is too unstable
Which groups of words are energy sources for muscles?
Creatine phosphate and ATP are both sources of energy for the muscles. Creatine phosphate is found in vertebrate muscle, while ATP can be found anywhere within the cell.
Why is atp important in muscles?
ATP is important in muscle contraction. ATP is high energy bond which gives you energy required for muscle contraction.
