ATP PC System

What does ATP stand for?

• Adenosine-Penta-Phosphate

• Adenosine-Hexa-Phosphate

• Adenosine-Tri-Phosphate

• Adenosine-Tetra-Phosphate

What is the function of ATP in the body?

• To fuel physical activity

• To store energy for later use

• To regulate body temperature

• To maintain body weight

How is ATP synthesized in the body?

• From the breakdown of muscle tissue

• From the combination of different elements

• From the conversion of carbon dioxide

• From the absorption of vitamins

What are the two ways in which ATP can be synthesized?

• Aerobic and anaerobic

• Carbohydrate and protein

• Fat and fiber

• Vitamins and minerals

Which type of metabolism produces the most ATP?

• Fiber metabolism

• Protein metabolism

• Carbohydrate metabolism

• Fat metabolism

What is the "fat burning zone"? a) The point at which the body starts burning fat for energy (correct) b) The point at which the body starts burning muscle for energy c) The point at which the body stops burning calories d) The point at which the body enters a state of hibernation

• The point at which the body enters a state of hibernation

• The point at which the body starts burning muscle for energy

• The point at which the body starts burning fat for energy

• The point at which the body stops burning calories

Why is there a shift towards shorter, higher intensity exercise?

• To burn fat more efficiently

• To save time

• To improve cardiovascular health

• To burn more calories in less time

What are the two pathways for regenerating ATP?

• Fat and fiber

• Carbohydrate and protein

• Aerobic and anaerobic

• Vitamins and minerals

Which system has a greater capacity for generating ATP?

• Anaerobic system

• Aerobic system

• Carbohydrate system

• Fat system

What limits the anaerobic system's ability to regenerate ATP?

• The amount of energy that can be released in a single bout of intense exercise

• The amount of oxygen available

• The amount of fat stored in the body

• The amount of muscle tissue available
