Discuss the relationship between distribution of muscle fibre type and performance. How might exercise training modify or change a person’s fibre-type distribution? There are four different types of muscle fibres: type 1‚ type 2a‚ type 2x‚ and type 2c. “A single skeletal muscle contains fibres having different speeds of shortening and ability to generate maximal force: type 1 (slow-twitch) fibres and type 2 (fast-twitch) fibres. Type 1 fies take approximately 110 ms to reach peak tension when

Each organism has a different sequence of amino acids which make up their base sequence and consequently code their genetics. DNA consists of two polynucleotide chains and these nucleotides consist of a deoxyribose sugar‚ a nitrogenous base and a phosphate group. The bases are Adenine‚ Cytosine‚ Guanine and Thymine. The sequence of these bases on DNA determines the structure of these proteins. A gene is a sequence of bases which codes for a single polypeptide. Chromosomes carry these genes and these

The Mitochondrion The cell is the most basic unit of life. The cell serves as the place for processes such as cellular respiration‚ metabolism and energy production in the form of ATP‚ or adenosine triphosphate. Many organelles—small structures that help to carry out the daily operations of the cell‚ inhabit the cell such as the Golgi complex‚ the endoplasmic reticulum‚ the nucleus‚ or brain of the cell‚ and lysosomes. An organelle that is the place where most of the cell’s energy is generated is
