Why are amino acids important for the body?
Amino acids are used to create carbohydrates
Amino acids are used to create oxygen and help heal and build the body.
Amino acids are used to build protein and help heal and build the body.
Amino acids are used to create energy
If someone has diabetes, they may feel tired. Why would someone feel tired if they have diabetes?
Diabetes prevents cells from getting glucose that is used for cellular respiration.
Diabetes prevents cells from getting enough oxygen that is used for cellular respiration.
Diabetes lowers the number of red blood cells.
Diabetes stops the body from making enzymes
True or False: Blood doping is when you trick the body into making more red blood cells.
True, blood doping MAKES more red blood cells.
False, blood doping injects MORE red blood cells.
False, blood doping creates more glucose which is used for energy.
True, blood doping tells the body there aren't enough red blood cells and your body makes more.
How does blood doping give an athlete more energy?
Blood doping increases the number of red blood cells which allows the athlete to receive more oxygen.
Blood doping increases the number of mitochondria which allows the athlete to receive more oxygen.
Blood doping increases the number of red blood cells which allows the athlete to receive more glucose.
How can blood doping be harmful?
Blood doping makes your blood THINNER and your heart will pump slower.
Blood doping makes your blood thinner.
Blood doping makes your blood THICKER and your heart will pump harder.
