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.

Efficiency of ATP Production in Muscle: The transformation of glucose to lactate in myocytes releases only about 7% of the free energy released when glucose is completely oxidized to CO2 and H2O. Does this mean that anaerobic glycolysis in muscle is a wasteful use of glucose? Explain.
Calculate the total ATP produced by the complete oxidation of a triglyceride composed of three palmitic acids in the liver. Be sure to indicate the specific steps involved and their corresponding ATP (or ATP equivalent).
The Vmax of muscle glycogen phosphorylase is much larger than that of the liver enzyme. Discuss the functional signifi cance of this phenomenon.
