To explain:
How muscle tissue generates ATP during short-term and long-term exercise.
Introduction:
The transfer of hydrogen ion through a proton pump generates an

Explanation of Solution
The energy source for muscle tissues are products of anaerobic as well aerobic respiration, which provide energy for short-term exercise. The oxidation of fatty acids, provide energy to the muscle tissues for long-term exercise.
Anaerobic respiration: The anaerobic source of energy for muscle tissues is lactic acid fermentation. The production of lactic acid from pyruvate releases energy in the form of
Aerobic respiration: The aerobic source of energy for muscle tissue is generation of
Beta oxidation: The breakdown of triacylglycerol inside the cells, leads to the formation of glycerol and fatty acids. These fatty acids so formed, are further shortened by a series of reactions. This shortening of fatty acids results in sequential removal of two carbon units from their ends. This process is called beta oxidation, and the products of this process are
ATP in the muscle cells is generated during exercise by lactic acid fermentation, aerobic respiration, and beta oxidation.

- What did the Cre-lox system used in the Kikuchi et al. 2010 heart regeneration experiment allow researchers to investigate? What was the purpose of the cmlc2 promoter? What is CreER and why was it used in this experiment? If constitutively active Cre was driven by the cmlc2 promoter, rather than an inducible CreER system, what color would you expect new cardiomyocytes in the regenerated area to be no matter what? Why?arrow_forwardWhat kind of organ size regulation is occurring when you graft multiple organs into a mouse and the graft weight stays the same?arrow_forwardWhat is the concept "calories consumed must equal calories burned" in regrads to nutrition?arrow_forward
- You intend to insert patched dominant negative DNA into the left half of the neural tube of a chick. 1) Which side of the neural tube would you put the positive electrode to ensure that the DNA ends up on the left side? 2) What would be the internal (within the embryo) control for this experiment? 3) How can you be sure that the electroporation method itself is not impacting the embryo? 4) What would you do to ensure that the electroporation is working? How can you tell?arrow_forwardDescribe a method to document the diffusion path and gradient of Sonic Hedgehog through the chicken embryo.
