Chapter 50, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
To determine: In what way the energy cost per hop differ at the two frequencies and also how this is related to energy storage in tendons.
Concept introduction: The locomotion is one of the most important characteristics of animals. It helps them to find mates, forage and to escape from enemies.
The locomotion on land is mediated in animals by the structural adaptations that evolved over the time to overcome the
Given data:
The energy consumed when standing is 159 joules/sec.
The energy consumed during hopping at different frequency is given as follows:
| Frequency (hops/sec) | Energy used (joules/sec) |
| 1.85 | 735 |
| 0.92 | 716 |

Please construct a model to show that the digestive, respiratory, and circulatory systems work together to supply the body cells with the glucose and oxygen needed for aerobic cellular respiration. Feel free to use words, diagrams, arrows, flowcharts, etc. to get your ideas across.
Make sure you include the following information:
Digestion of starch into glucose and the location(s) of digestion.
Absorption of glucose into the blood and the location of absorption.
Blood transporting glucose from the absorption site to the tissues.
Glucose entering the tissue cells from the blood.
O2 entering the blood in the lungs and the specific location of entrance in the lungs.
Blood transporting O2 from the lungs into the tissues.
O2 enters the tissues from the blood.

- Use the metabolic equation for cycling and the kcal conversion factors to answer the following questions: Tom is a 100 kg and cycles at 50 rpm with a resistance of 2 kg. What is his relative VO2? What would be the relative VO2 for the same resistance and speed if the cycling was performed by Tammy, who weighs 50 kg? Assuming Tom and Tammy both cycled for 10 minutes, calculate the amount of energy transferred by each during their bout of cycling?arrow_forwardDescribe in detail an experimental design that you will use to test a hypothesis about the realtionship between tempature and the rate of cellular respiration. In other words, how will you gather evidence to support your claim/hypothesis? When identifying your design, be sure to address the following: What subject (beans, dogs, fish, plants, etc.) will you choose to test your claim/hypothesis? How will you set-up your experiment in order to have your subjects exposed to the environmental factor that you chose? How will you measure the rate of cellular respiration? (The number of measurements, etc.) What variables/factors will you have to control?arrow_forwardYou are designing an experiment to determine if you can make desert kangaroo rats active at noon. At noon the ground and air are warmer than the internal temperature of the rats. You decide to provide the kangaroo rats with enough water to ensure they can maintain body temperature homeostasis. Based on a simplified model, you determine that at noon, kangaroo rats: - Absorb 8 watts of radiation - Generate 1 watt of metabolic heat - Re-radiate 1 watt - Exchange a total of 2 watts with the surrounding desert ground and air via conduction - Exchange 4 watts through convective processes The kangaroo rat is not in energy balance. Since kangaroo rats lose 1 watt through latent heat (i.e. evaporative cooling) with each 2 ml of water consumed, how much water would you need to provide the kangaroo rat so that it can reach homeostasis? 04 8.

- ATP is a limited source of energy for skeletal muscle contraction. The cell has other ways of producing ATP depending on the duration and type of exercise. Describe these other processes contributing to ATP production in a person is running on a treadmill for 30 minutes.arrow_forwardConsider the reactants and products of cellular respiration, what do you think are three good ways to assess the rate of cellular respirations, i.e., what can you measure as a proxy for respiration rate?arrow_forwardAn athlete participates in aerobic exercise three times a week. One of the changes is an increased ability to deliver oxygen to her skeletal muscles. Over time she notices that she can continue the exercise with greater intensity and duration. The reason for this change is that there is a(n) a. greater response from phosphate transfer. b. greater production of ATP from glycolysis and less from aerobic cellular respiration. c. greater production of ATP from aerobic cellular respiration. d. increased production of lactate.arrow_forward

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.
