Sentences with phrase «cellular respiration process»

However, an example of a factor that affects the ability of your muscles to absorb oxygen would be the extent of the blood capillary distribution at your muscles (more blood capillaries means more surface area for oxygen absorption), and an example of a factor that affects the ability of your muscles to use oxygen would be the mitochondrial density of your muscles (mitochondria are organelles in your cells that are primarily responsible for the cellular respiration process that uses oxygen to create ATP energy).

When we are young and have high levels of NAD +, it is mostly consumed as part of normal cellular respiration process — that is, oxidation of ATP for energy.

In contrast to the alactic anaerobic energy system, which uses ATP stored from previous cellular respiration in combination with a PCr phosphate buffer, the lactic anaerobic energy system must directly recruit the active cellular respiration process to provide ATP energy.

The cellular respiration process that converts your food energy into ATP is in large part dependent on the availability of oxygen.

The cellular respiration process consists of a very complex series of chemical reactions, but the short summary of it is that it ultimately converts food energy (from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) into ATP energy.

Luckily, you have three exercise energy systems that can be selectively recruited, depending on how much oxygen is available, as part of the cellular respiration process to generate the ATP energy for your muscles.

Not exact matches

Dr. Jan Höpker, Dr. Silke Oeljeklaus, Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Pfanner, Dr. Sebastian Stiller, Prof. Dr. Bettina Warscheid, Prof. Dr. Nils Wiedemann and their team of researchers have demonstrated that this protein complex is essential for the integration of certain proteins into the inner membrane of mitochondria — proteins that play a role in cellular respiration and other processes.

«This camera has the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of very fast biological interactions and chemical processes that will allow us to build better models of complex, dynamical systems such as cellular respiration, or to help doctors better deliver and monitor light - based therapies,» says Richard Conroy, Ph.D., program director for Optical Imaging at NIBIB.

I am part of a team that studies Coenzyme Q, an essential molecule in the respiration process that produces cellular energy.

It is produced by photophosphorylation and cellular respiration and used by enzymes and structural proteins in many cellular processes.

A complex chemical process within your cells, called cellular respiration, ultimately converts the energy stored in the foods you eat into a form that is optimized for use at the cellular level of your muscles.

The conversion of calories from their stored nutrient state to the form that can be burned by your muscle cells is achieved, during aerobic exercise, through the process of cellular respiration, which requires oxygen, and the delivery of oxygen through your bloodstream to your active muscle cells is directly related to your heart rate.

The body is under constant danger of becoming acid, due to the very basic process of energy production, by oxidizing (breaking down) carbohydrates into carbon dioxide and water, producing acidic residue (CO2), that needs to be disposed of through cellular respiration, and then exhaled through the lungs (this is why the rate of breathing can directly affect body's acid / alkaline balance).

Cardiorespiratory fitness is a measure of how well your body is able to transport oxygen to your muscles during prolonged exercise, and also of how well your muscles are able to absorb and use the oxygen, once it has been delivered, to generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP) energy via cellular respiration (cellular respiration is a chemical process in your body's cells that converts the energy stored in the food you eat into the ATP form of energy that is recruited for use by your muscles).

This process also prevents intracellular levels of ADP from elevating which can decrease power output by decreasing cellular respiration and speeds up energy requirements (4).

Help your students understand the essential processes cells use to get energy from the food we eat with this set of clear, simple diagrams and a concise study guide that focuses on the main events of aerobic cellular respiration.

Plants use a process of breathing called cellular respiration.
