Question
Chapter 22, Problem 5P
Interpretation Introduction
To calculate:
The energy consumption rate for stored glycogen in heavy exercise.
Introduction:
According to the table 23.1, the body glycogen amount is 120 g and that represents 1920 kJ. In the heavy exercise, this stored glycogen is utilized to produce the required energy. From the “A deeper look” it was identified that, it takes only one hour to finish the all the stored glycogen in heavy exercise.

Intracellular concentrations in resting muscle are as follows: fructose-
6-phosphate, 1.0 mM; fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, 10 mM; AMP, 0.1 mM;
ADP, 0.5 mM; ATP, 5 mM; and P, 10 mM. Is the phosphofructokinase reac-
tion in muscle more or less exergonic than under standard conditions? By
how much?

respectively. Speculate about what this ratio difference means in terms of muscle activity potential and a possible evolutionary significance of this
difference.
4. Fleas can jump up to 40 times their body length. However, calculation on the biomechanics of the leg extensor muscles, do not provide enough force
to account for such jumps. If the flea's ability to jump high is not reliant upon muscle strength, how else could the leg structure be modified to assist
in the flea jumping mechanism? How would you test your idea?
