What is bioenergetics? - CORRECTANSWER the process of converting substrates into energy
bioenergetics operates at the __________ level - CORRECTANSWER cellular
bioenergetics belongs only to cells: T or F - CORRECTANSWER true
what is a substrate? - CORRECTANSWER a fuel source which energy ATP can be generated
what are examples of substrates? - CORRECTANSWER CHO, fats, protein
what is metabolism? - CORRECTANSWER a chemical reaction in the body that produces energy
,what is a calorie? - CORRECTANSWER the amount of heat energy needed to raise the
temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius
What is energy balance? - CORRECTANSWER the relationship between energy intake and
energy expenditure = intake/expenditure
what happens to excess energy intake? - CORRECTANSWER it is stored
how many calories does a athlete consume? - CORRECTANSWER 8k-10k cal

what is the percent of protein synthesis of the: skeletal muscle - CORRECTANSWER 17%
why is it impossible to run out of energy? - CORRECTANSWER there is constant renewal of
energy
What do fats break down into? - CORRECTANSWER fatty acids and glycerol
what do carbs break down into? - CORRECTANSWER glucose
, what do proteins break down into? - CORRECTANSWER amino acids
what is diabetes characterized by? - CORRECTANSWER unusual blood sugar levels
since glucose cannot be stored what does it have to be broken down into in order to be stored?
- CORRECTANSWER glycogen
Where is glycogen stored in the body? - CORRECTANSWER liver and skeletal muscles
what (2) processes store glycogen? - CORRECTANSWER 1. glycogenolysis
2. glycogenesis
what is the process of lipolysis - CORRECTANSWER breakdown of fat stores to the free fatty acid
pool
what is the process of lipogenesis - CORRECTANSWER generation/formation of fat from excess
glucose
what is the process of glycogenolysis - CORRECTANSWER breakdown of glycogen TO FORM
glucose (stored form of sugar)
