The Energy system use

/in /by

Steve is a collegiate soccer player. He plays mid-field; there are periods of short sprints, continues movement, and jogging. Answer the following regarding the energy system use. 1. Outline the energy systems being used during a 1.5-hour game.

a. Short sprints b. Continues movement c. Runs (30 seconds to 1 minute) 2. What are the primary and secondary nutrients he is using during the game? What is the reason for this? 3. Steve often feels tired and fatigued during the game. He says he feels he “hits a wall.” What would you tell him could be the possible reason for this and what would you advise him to do to keep him from “hitting the wall

 Neurons of the Sympathetic nervous system

/in /by

Neurons of the sympathetic nervous system blank 1 (increase/decrease) heart rate, and neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system blank 2 (slow it down/make is faster). In general, the blank 3 nervous system takes care of “rest- and-digest” activities, and the blank 4 nervous system helps support exercise or emergency actions-the so-called “fight-or-flight” responses.

Low Thyroid hormone levels in the blood

/in /by

Patient X tends to be cold and have very low energy. You are an endocrinologist, and you first determine that X has low thyroid hormone levels in the blood. Your next step is to determine whether the problem lies at the level of the hypothalamus, anterior pituitary or the thyroid gland.Assume that you determine that the problem is very low secretion of TSH by the anterior pituitary, despite adequate levels of TRH. Describe two possible causes of this problem, and how you could gather evidence for those causes.

Assume that you can take small pieces of X’s anterior pituitary gland, keep it alive in a dish, and measure what you need to measure.

4. Possible cause #1 for low secretion of TSH by the anterior pituitary despite adequate TRH: (1 pt) 5. Experimental evidence that would support this cause: (1 pt) 6. Possible cause #2 for low secretion of TSH by the anterior pituitary despite adequate TRH: (1 pt) 7. Experimental evidence that would support this cause: (1 pt)

The Concentration of glucose in the blood

/in /by

True/False: Mark the following statements as true () or false (F). If the statement is false, correct it to make it a true statement. a. Glucagon triggers actions that raise the concentration of glucose in the blood. b. The thyroid gland produces thyroxine, triiodothyronine, and parathyroid hormone.

c. The thymus gland produces hormones that regulate the metabolic rate. d. Aldosterone triggers actions that raise the concentration of calcium ions in the blood.

e. The posterior pituitary produces oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone.
