Energy Metabolism
Respiration and the Respiratory System-
The respiratory system is in charge of getting the oxygen needed for respiration to the blood flow where it is passed by the blood cells around the body to reach each living cell.
The lungs have a huge blood supply and a huge surface area so they are very effective at getting oxygen out of the air. They are also in charge of getting rid of the carbon dioxide excess and some of the excess water as water vapour. It is the lungs job to get the oxygen and the heart has to pump it around the rest of the body. Energy metabolism; when people are exercising their muscles are contracting and they are using more energy so they will need more oxygen getting to the muscles and my heart

THE ATP-PC SYSTEM
This is an anaerobic energy system.
1- For 2 seconds the body relies on the ATP present in the muscle cells.
2- The body then detects that there is an increasing amount of ADP in the muscle cell.
3- This causes the enzyme Creatine Kinase to be released.
4- This enzyme causes Creatine Phosphophate (which is also present in the muscle cell) to be broken down into Creatine and Phosphate.
5- This energy is used to re-form the bonds between ADP and P to make ATP.
PC P + C + Energy
Energy + ADP + P ATP
These reactions produce 1ATP.
This energy system only lasts for 10 seconds. It is used for high intensity, short duration activities e.g. 100m sprint, weightlifting, shot putt
Anabolism
Molecule combining to form complex compounds is the process involved in anabolism. Cells combine amino acids to form structural proteins and functional proteins. Structural proteins help repair and replace tissues. Enzymes, antibodies and hormones are functional proteins that respectively catalyse chemical reactions, help fight disease and regulate body processes.
During anabolism, many different foods & these get stored. Calcium is stored in the bones when they are made or repaired.
Catabolism
The breaking down of foods eaten to get useful products and protein are combined with calcium to form a strong structure of a
Hy5 is known as the industry's leader in flood damage repair in Ulverston, using top ranking techniques and flood specialists who are well trained in operating modern equipment and effective cleaning products.
There are many things which can affect access to complementary therapies. The ones I will be explaining are:
No Secrets – Guidance published by the Department of Health, builds upon the governments respects for human rights and highlights the need to protect vulnerable adults through effective multi-agency work.
The circulatory system and the respiratory system work closely together to ensure that organ tissues and systems receive enough oxygen. Oxygen is required for cellular functions such as cell respiration. This is so the body’s organs and cells can work at fully; it is done by releasing chemical energy with in stored foods. The air breathed in and held in the lungs is transferred to the blood. The blood is circulated by the heart, which pumps the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the body organs and returns with deoxygenated blood.
Your body requires energy in order to be able to perform tasks. Energy comes in many different forms. They are chemical, light, sound, heat and mechanical. You can get energy from different food substances i.e. glucose, fatty acids, sugars and amino acids. To be able to get the energy from these food substances energy needs to be released with oxygen. This is known as aerobic respiration. The role that energy plays in our body is the process of moving molecules in and out of our cells while breaking down the larger molecules and building new molecules. The cardiovascular system transports oxygenated blood around the body and to the cells. It will then collect the deoxygenated blood which is ready for the excretion from the cells. The cardiovascular system will deliver the nutrients oxygen and glucose via the blood stream. Oxygen is need for aerobic respiration to occur. The cardiovascular system will pump oxygen and nutrients carrying blood throughout the body. The glucose molecules that are carried by the blood are transported into the cells. Along with the oxygen that is diffused into the cells they are used in respiration to produce ATP. The respiratory system is responsible for bringing in oxygen as well as using it to burn the nutrients that we need for energy. The respiratory system contains alveoli which allow the diffusion of oxygen into the blood stream
Schedule 8 drugs are medications that are considered to contain substances that may produce addiction or dependence; they are available for use but require restrictions on possession and use to reduce abuse and misuse (Koutoukidis, Stainton, Hughson, 2013, p 436).The Drugs and Poisons Act specifies the storage requirements for controlled drugs that apply to providers (Drugs and Poisons Act 1996, p 115). This specification applies to patients/residents receiving high-level care and the patient or resident has been supplied S8 controlled medicines on a prescription or medication order. All medications in a residential facility or on a hospital ward are required to be kept in a locked cupboard. The Drugs and Poisons Act is very specific on the requirements such as; constructed of steel 10 millimetres thick; fitted
The respiratory system is a complex organ structure of the human body anatomy, and the primary purpose of this system is to supply the blood with oxygen in order for the blood vessels to carry the precious gaseous element to all parts of the body to accomplish cell respiration. The respiratory system completes this important function of breathing throughout inspiration. In the breathing process inhaling oxygen is essential for cells to metabolize nutrients and carry out some other tasks, but it must occur simultaneously with exhaling when the carbon dioxide is excreted, this exchange of gases is the respiratory system's means of getting oxygen to the blood (McGowan, Jefferies & Turley, 2004).
Within a hockey match there will be various times throughout the match where the player will need very quick bursts of energy. An example of when this system would be used is when players would be taking free hits as the player is exerting their energy on one swing from a static position or when they have to sprint. This is an anaerobic movement as O2 is not necessary. It occurs quickly and uses readily available ATP for
The job of the respiratory system is that it brings oxygen to the body as air is inhaled into
Without this insulin spike provided by 75 grams of dextrose, creatine does not enter the muscle efficiently.
The phosphocreatine system is fueled by a molecule called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, which is broken down by the body. When broken down, ATP releases energy and a by product adenosine diphosphate, or ADP. Unfortunately, the body only has a limited amount of ATP and has to be replenished in order for it to properly function. The energy system that will be discussed in this paper is the phosphocreatine system, which is used in high power, short duration activities.
This is the simplest energy system. It is the anaerobic energy system that utilizes ATP stored in the muscle to create energy. Phosphocreatine is then used to rephosphorylate ADP into ATP using creatine kinase. This newly formed ATP can then be used to create more energy. It is the system used for short bursts of high-intensity work lasting approximately 10 seconds or less.
The first fitness activity I have participated in is basketball. The energy pathway I have chosen for this activity is the ATP-CP system. For this, the action of trying dunk the ball into the basket is what relates to this system the most. The ATP-CP system is one of the three energy pathways. The ATP-CP system is mostly activated when short and quick bursts of energy are released from the body. ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate and CP stands for creatine phosphate. CP is used to reactivate ATP, but this process is quite short-lived. This is why this relates to the fast action of dunking the basketball into the basket before your competitor gets to it.
Proteolysis is the breakdown of protein chains into small polypeptides and amino acids; this is usually catalysed by enzymes such as protease.
The Cardiovascular and Respiratory Systems both work towards the same goal. They both try to transport oxygen throughout the body and carbon dioxide outside of the body. The respiratory system sends nonoxygenated blood to the heart and the heart sends it out to the lungs to be oxygenated then it goes back to the heart and out to the rest of the body.
