1. What does muscle ATP consumption refer to?
2. Which enzyme is responsible for catalyzing the transfer of phosphate from phosphocreatine to ADP during ATP resynthesis in muscle?
3. What is the primary role of energy pathways in muscle during exercise?
ATP hydrolysis — role?
Releases energy for muscle contraction.
Myosin ATPase — function?
Hydrolyzes ATP during contraction.
SERCA pumps — role?
Recapture calcium for muscle relaxation.
ATP resynthesis — process?
Regenerating ATP from ADP via metabolic pathways.
Phosphocreatine — function?
Rapidly donates phosphate to regenerate ATP.
Glycolysis — pathway type?
Anaerobic breakdown of glucose.
