Why a sprinter can use mainly anaerobic respiration during the race while a marathon runner needs to use aerobic respiration?
so they can breath :)
A runner needs more energy for a longer race. How does the body generate the necessary ATP?
Goes from aerobic respiration of carbohydrate to anaerobic respiration of carbohydrate. In the case of marathon runners aerobic respiration of fatty acids will follow depletion of carbohydrate reserves (glycogen).
Why is speed important for a marathon runner?
Speed determines how long time the Runner needs to finish the race. For those actually competing, the one with the highest speed gets the shortest time and wins the race. For the recreational Runner, speed still determine the time. And since the race course is usually only open a limited time, even a recreational rider needs to keep the pace up.
Why does a marathon runner eat a large starchy meal before a bi g race?
Eating a large starchy meal before a race provides the runner with a good source of carbohydrates, which are a primary fuel source for endurance activities. Carbohydrates help replenish glycogen stores in the muscles, providing energy for sustained performance during the marathon. This pre-race meal can help optimize performance and prevent fatigue.
What is the difference between an aerobic and an anaerobic culture?
Aerobic needs oxygen to grow.
What is a bacterium that needs oxygen?
An example of a bacterium that needs oxygen is Escherichia coli, commonly found in the human intestines. These bacteria are aerobic and require oxygen for their metabolism and growth.
In what way should a marathon runners diet differ from a weight lifters diet?
more carbohydrate on a runner - needs a lot of energy consumption. More protein diet on a weight lifter - need to build muscle to lift bigger weight.
What materials and energy are needed for Aerobic Respiration?
Aerobic means it needs oxygen and also requires ATP, it also needs water.Anaerobic doesn't require oxygen.
What are the two classification of cellular respiration?
Aerobic and Anaerobic. Aerobic needs oxygen, and anaerobic does not use oxygen.
What respiration needs oxygen from air?
aerobic respiration
When calculating the daily protein needs for marathon runners or competitive?
1.4-1.7
Why aerobic excersise is better to reduce weight?
Aerobic exercise involves large muscle groups, increase the body's needs for oxygen. Running, jogging or going out are all good forms of aerobic exercise.
