KIN 420 Exam I Study Guide The exam will consist of multiple choice, true/false, fill in the blank questions. Please be familiar with the following topics: - Basic structure of ATP and how it contributes energy to power various processes. - The basic function of enzymes - The function of these specific enzymes: ATPase, creatine kinase, myokinase, phosphofructokinase, lactate dehydrogenase. Glycogen phosphorylase, glycogen synthase, hormone sensitive lipase, lipoprotein lipase - How creatine phosphate contributes to the ATP production process - Specific molecules that can either simulate or inhibit metabolic rate - The difference between an oxidation and reduction reaction - Basic steps in the electron transport chain - Basic steps of glycogenolysis - Basic steps in glycolysis - Basic steps in the Kreb’s Cycle - Basic steps in beta oxidation - How beta oxidation, glycolysis, Kreb’s Cycle, and electron transport chain contribute to ATP production - Uses of lactate after it is produced - “Fat burns in a carbohydrate flame” - Typical situations in which protein is used as a fuel source - The 3 energy systems - Interrelationship between the 3 energy systems - The blood lactate threshold - The oxygen deficit - EPOC - Factors that influence energy expenditure during walking, running, and swimming - Factors that influence glycogen use during exercise - Bicarbonate buffering of hydrogen ion - Assessment of VO2max by submax and max test (max test with metabolic cart) - Acute of effects of high-altitude exposure - Chronic effects of high-altitude exposure - The use of high-altitude exposure as an aerobic training enhancement tool - Exercise in the heat - Exercise in the cold - Physiologic effects of exposure of high pressure on performance - Physiologic issues that can arise from breathing gases at high pressure - Decreases in physical performance associated with microgravity exposure
