Cardiovascular System: Blood Purpose Explain why you did this lab and what if any safety precautions needed to be followed. The purpose of this exercise is to gain knowledge and become familiar with the components of blood and blood cells. In order to do this‚ a prepared slide as well as a slide using my own blood were used. The different types of cells along with antigen-antibody

Metabolism By: Who ever Enzymes Enzymes act as a catalyst by speeding up or slowing down processes in the body. A protein enzyme has a particular shape that contains an active site. An active site is where a substrate fits into place to have its bonds either built or broken. At which time the products or product produced are released. The enzyme remains to continue to act on any available substrate. Hereditary Fructose Intolerance AldolaseB is found mainly in the liver. The second

Metabolism “Metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that happen in living organisms to maintain life. These processes allow organisms to grow and reproduce‚ maintain their structures‚ and respond to their environments” (Metabolism). Metabolism breaks down the food that we eat‚ transforming it into energy for our bodies. Metabolism is broken down into two categories Anabolism and Catabolism‚ which help aid in the chemical reaction process. Specific proteins in the body control the chemical

Muscular System: Muscle Metabolism 1. List the three roles of ATP in muscle contraction: 1. _Energize the power stroke of the myosin cross bridge. 2. _Disconnecting the myosin head from the binding site on actin at the conclusion of a power stroke. 3. _Energizing the calcium ion pump. 2. The potential energy in ATP is released when the terminal high-energy bond is broken by a process called hydrolysis. Write the end products of this process: ATP (+ H2O) (

In the 5000m race the runner must use all 3 energy systems ‚ which are ATP‚ aerobic and lactic acid systems to succeed as the race has different areas needed for their use‚ all 3 energy systems contribute regardless of the intensity or duration of the exercise. When the athlete comes to the starting line he/she most probably will want to make a dashing start to the race to tactically get a good starting position‚ so must get off the line‚ in the first 40-50m‚ as hard as he or she can. By getting

Biochemistry - Metabolism Enzyme Function and Activation Energy (Chapter 6 - Enzyme function and activation energy‚ n.d.) Induced Fit Model (Hudon-Miller‚ Enzymes‚ 2013) Why Does Aldolase B Deficiency Lead to HFI? • Understanding what happens to Glucose and Fructose in the liver is the first step. • Glucose enters the liver cell and Glucokinase is in the cytoplasm and adds a Phosphate (Pi) to make G-6-P to keep the glucose in the liver cell‚ which then becomes G-1-P and can be

Energy systems Creatine Phosphate system The creatine phosphate system is an immediate energy system. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is created without the presence of oxygen for short‚ fast bursts of power and energy. This is the first system used when performing any sporting activity. However this short burst of energy only lasts for a short moment in time for round about 10 seconds. Running events like the 100 meters sprint would be an example of using the creatine phosphate system. During the

THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM [1] On a front direct projection of the thorax X-ray the expansion of the left contour of the middle shadow in its lower department is present. What department of the heart is enlarged? A. Auricle of the left atrium B. Right ventricle C. Left atrium D. Right atrium E. Left ventricle The middle shadow on a front direct projection of the thorax X-ray is formed by the heart and vessels diverging from it. The middle shadow of left contour is formed by four arches.
Premium Heart
The cardiovascular system consists of the heart‚ blood vessels‚ and blood. This system has three main functions: Transport of nutrients‚ oxygen‚ and hormones to cells throughout the body and removal of metabolic wastes (carbon dioxide‚ nitrogenous wastes). Atria: Ventricles: In a four-chambered heart‚ such as that in humans‚ there are two ventricles that operate in a double circulatory system: the right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary circulation to the lungs‚ and the left ventricle pumps

Energy Systems Our body needs a supply of energy to complete day to day tasks and to simply be able to move. We have more than one energy system‚ we have 3 in total and these are * ATP (anaerobic) * Lactic acid (anaerobic) * Aerobic (aerobic) All three off these energy systems are fuelled by the same chemical called ADP-PC. These systems produce this chemical at different speeds‚ for example the ATP system produces the chemical very fast as for the aerobic energy system produces it
