What are the 3 steps to deliver oxygen to the cells?
oxygenation, oxygen delivery,oxygen consumption
What is oxygen debt and when does it occur?
The Oxygen Debt is the extra volume of oxygen consumed by muscle tissue after intensive exercise. It is also referred to as recovery oxygen or excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). EPOC - excess post oxygen consumptionOxygen debt is the amount of extra oxygen required by muscle tissue to convert accumulated lactic acid to glucose and replenish depleted ATP following vigorous exercise.
What causes a burner flame to be smoky and to separate from the tip of the burner?
If there is not a sufficient supply of oxygen, the flame will be smoky from excess of carbon.
The rate of oxygen consumption at rest after an overnight fast?
Basal metabolic rate
What does the number 16 in the name oxygen represent?
Protons!
Does the oxygen consumption of a cell mirror the oxygen consumption of an animal?
yes
How does oxygen consumption change when adding succinate to mitochondria?
oxygen consumption increases
How combustion of carbon differs in a limited supply of oxygen compared to when oxygen is in excess?
Oxygen in excess: carbon dioxide is obtained.Not sufficient oxygen: carbon monoxide is obtained.
Oxygen consumption is related to exercise intensity in a generally fashion?
oxygen consumption is nearly linear with power output or running velocity
What are the 3 steps to deliver oxygen to the cells?
oxygenation, oxygen delivery,oxygen consumption
Does oxygen have an excess or a deficiency of electrons?
No.
Do we exhale to remove excess oxygen from the lungs?
No - we exhale to remove air that has a high content of carbon dioxide. Excess oxygen is not a problem when breathing - oxygen deficiency IS a problem.
What is oxygen debt and when does it occur?
The Oxygen Debt is the extra volume of oxygen consumed by muscle tissue after intensive exercise. It is also referred to as recovery oxygen or excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). EPOC - excess post oxygen consumptionOxygen debt is the amount of extra oxygen required by muscle tissue to convert accumulated lactic acid to glucose and replenish depleted ATP following vigorous exercise.
What is used to measure oxygen consumption?
a respirometer
What does VO2 refer to?
maximal oxygen consumption
What is oxygen consumption in cold temperatures?
AIDS
Suppose that a scientist is simultaneously measuring both the amount of oxygen and the amount of glucose that is being used by cells. If a chemical were added that inhibited the electron transport chain?
Oxygen consumption decreases while glucose consumption increases
