Answer 11

• grains
• rice
• potatoes
• beans

Question 12

Fat - Type of Energy and What it Provides (4)

Answer 12

STORED energy – essential nutrient

Provides:

• energy
• energy storage
• insulation
• contour to the body

Question 13

Protein - Type of Energy and Definition (3)

Answer 13

BUILDING BLOCKS – not energy

• a compound
• composed of 20 amino acids
• major structural component of all body tissue

Question 14

Glucose - Type of Sugar and Definition

Answer 14

SIMPLE SUGAR

• the forms in which all carbs are used as the body’s principle energy source

Question 15

Triglyceride - Definition

Answer 15

3 fatty acids joined to a glycerol backbone
(glycerol = carbon + hydrogen)

• How fat is stored in the body

Question 16

Glycolytic Anaerobic System - Type and Example

Answer 16

Used during HARD INTENSITIES over MINUTES long
i.e. HIIT

Energy pathway that uses GLYCOGEN to produce power

Used carb stores which produce ATP WITHOUT OXYGEN

Aerobic System - Type and Example

Answer 17

Used during MOD/LOW INTENSITIES over MORE THAN MINUTES

i.e. cardio and swimming

Question 18

Creatine Phosphate System - Type and Example
aka
Phosphagen System

Answer 18

Used during EXTREME INTENSITY over SECONDS (immediate energy)
i.e. sprinting

Consists of ATP and PCr

Answer 20

-Produced aerobically and anaerobically

Question 21

Aerobic System - Components Used (4)

Answer 21

Energy pathway that uses OXYGEN, FATS, CARBS, and sometimes PROTEIN for re-synthesizing ATP for prolonged energy use.
