Marathon runners often practice "carb loading" prior to a race. The purpose of this practice is to increase the stores of energy available for muscles to use. Explain how energy is used by muscle fibers and how this practice of "card loading" benefits the runner's muscles. Be sure to use the terms glucose, glycogen, creatine, phosphate, and ATP in the explanation.
What would be the ATP yield per molecule of glucose in the muscle if glycogen were the source of the glucose?
When an animal dies, its limbs and body become stiff because its muscles go into rigor mortis (literally, rigor mortis means “stiffness of death”). Why would the loss of ATP following death cause this to happen?

- For a skeletal muscle to remain rigidly contracted, it needs a continual supply of ATP. Yet, when a skeletal muscle runs out of ATP (in a corpse), it becomes rigid.

Use this information to predict how energy production differs in these two types of muscle fibers. Fast-twitch fibers rely primarily on aerobic respiration whereas slow- twitch fibers rely on anaerobic respiration. Slow-twitch fibers are able to produce more ATP per glucose molecule than fast-twitch fibers. You would expect to find more lactic acid build-up in slow-twitch fibers rather than fast-twitch fibers.
