On a scale of 1-10, how well did you understand the article? (1=not understood anything, 10= understood every

Define Endurance exercise

Exercises which use energy produced majorly via aerobic respiration

Exercises which use energy produced majorly via anaerobic respiration

Who creates exercise guidelines?

Nobody

Parents

World Health Organisation (WHO)

Institutions e.g. college, school

What muscle type is used when completing Endurance exercise?

Cardiac muscle

Smooth muscle

Large skeletal muscles

Define post contraction hyperaemia

An increase in blood flow to skeletal muscles during muscular activity

The volume of blood pumped from the left ventricle per cardiac cycle

The ability to sustain mental effort during exercise

Research found that muscle fibre type can change due to endurance exercise training. What seemed to contribute to this?

Potassium channel activity

Calcium channel activity (TRMP2)

Sodium channel activity

Define Mitochondrial biogenesis

The breakdown of mitochondria

An increase in mitochondrial numbers (pool of mitochondria) due to exercise training

The process of oxidative metabolism

What process reflects oxygen extraction by the muscle?

Mitochondrial biogenesis

Glycolytic metabolism

Oxidative metabolism

Exercise Hyperaemia/ cardiac output redistribution

What did the endosymbiont theory state about the origin of Mitochondria?

Mitochondria were originally aliens which arrived at Earth and gradually transformed into an organelle

Mitochondria were originally endosymbionts and gradually transformed into an organelle after it was engulfed from the archaebacterium prokaryote

Mitochondria were originally derived from the bacterium E.coli

Mitochondria gradually developed into an organelle after completing the first ever process of oxidative metabolism

How does too much exercise damage muscle fibres?

By the excess production of Citrate synthase

By the excess production of Reactive Oxidative Species (ROS)

By the excess production of ATP

Which fibre is predominantly used during endurance exercise?

Type 1 and Type 2 fibres

Only Type 1 fibres

Only Type 2 fibres

How does rest improve performance during future exercise?

Resting reduces muscle contractility which improves muscle recovery

Resting stiffens muscles

Resting increases muscle contractility which ensures better muscle recovery

What is the difference between Endurance exercise and Endurance training?

-Endurance exercise= moderate intensity exercise over a long period of time. Endurance training= sustained aerobic activity involving cardiorespiratory fitness

-Endurance exercise= sustained aerobic activity involving cardiorespiratory fitness. Endurance training= moderate intensity exercise over a long period of time

What is the 'powerhouse of the cell' in skeletal muscles?

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Mitochondria

Nucleus
