EDKP 391

the study of function of the body - how the body parts work and carry out their life sustaining activities -
answers✔✔What is physiology



Maintaining a stable internal environment - answers✔✔What is homeostasis?



The study of the body structure and function are altered by the exposure to acute and. chronic bouts of
exercise - answers✔✔What is exercise physiology?



the effects of the environment on the function of the body,

cold, warm, fasting, non fasting, - answers✔✔What is environmental physiology?



The application of exercise physiology in sports - answers✔✔What is sport physiology?



is a single bout of exercise - answers✔✔What is acute exercise?



A change that occurs when the body is exposed to repeated exercise bouts over weeks or months -
answers✔✔What is chronic exercise adaptation?



Noble prize winner in 1921

- studied frog muscles

- did the first study on runners - answers✔✔Who was Archibald V. Hill?



looked at human movement and effects of environment on stress and exercise - answers✔✔What did
the Harvard fatigue lab do?



Scandinavian researcher, biopsy needle the size of the pencil, that looks at the human muscle
biochemistry - answers✔✔Who is Jonas Bergstrom?

,-DNA (genomics)

-RNA (transcripts/ transcriptomics)

-Proteins (proteomics)

Metabolically (Metabolimics) - answers✔✔What is the progression of omics revolution?



Research studies - answers✔✔Most of what we know comes from:



look at nature and figure out what we would like to learn about that hasn't been addressed -
answers✔✔What does the scientific research process look like?



measures physical work in standardized conditions

looking at controlling the rate and variables in lab scenarios - answers✔✔What is an Ergometers?



it does not reflect real life due to all the constraints - answers✔✔What limitations do Ergometers have?



L R: tests the same subjects over Long period of time

C-S R: looking at differences over different age groups

-LR is more accurate but are more time consuming and expensive - answers✔✔What is longitudinal
research vs cross-sectional research? what is more accurate?



yes, it could for example have a treated group and a control group making it C-S and also be over a long
period of time making it LR - answers✔✔Can a study be longitudinal and cross-sectional?



-sleep

-food

-temperature

-humidity

-noise level - answers✔✔What are different factors that are potentially important to control?

, voluntary, Skelton - answers✔✔Skeletal muscle



involuntary, hollow organs - answers✔✔Smooth muscle



involuntary, heart - answers✔✔Cardiac muscles



Tendons - answers✔✔how are muscles connected to bones?



It is fused with the tendon

allows for potential actions

transports nutrients - answers✔✔What is a Plasmalemma (cell membrane)?



plays important role in muscle growth and development and recover from muscle injury -
answers✔✔Muscle Satellite cells



cytoplasm of a muscle cell, it has glycogen storage - answers✔✔Sarcoplasm



extensions of plasmalemma and carries potential action into the muscle - answers✔✔Transverse
tubules



stores calcium

the reticulum like the but stores poop that has milk like calcium - answers✔✔Sarcoplasmic reticulum



muscle-> fascicule-> muscle fiber-> myofibril

there are 100-1000s in a Muscle fiber - answers✔✔What are the states of myofibrils?



basic contraction element of the skeletal muscle - answers✔✔Sarcomeres
