  2. Anaerobic glycolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_glycolysis

    [1] providing energy for a period ranging from 10 seconds to 2 minutes. During this time it can augment the energy produced by aerobic metabolism but is limited by the buildup of lactate. Rest eventually becomes necessary. [2] The anaerobic glycolysis (lactic acid) system is dominant from about 10–30 seconds during a maximal effort.

  3. Bioenergetic systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioenergetic_systems

    Bioenergetic systems are metabolic processes that relate to the flow of energy in living organisms. Those processes convert energy into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the form suitable for muscular activity. There are two main forms of synthesis of ATP: aerobic, which uses oxygen from the bloodstream, and anaerobic, which does not.

  4. Cori cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cori_cycle

    Cori cycle. The Cori cycle (also known as the lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, [1] is a metabolic pathway in which lactate, produced by anaerobic glycolysis in muscles, is transported to the liver and converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is cyclically metabolized back to lactate.

  5. Physiology of marathons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiology_of_marathons

    The anaerobic glycolytic energy pathway is the source of human energy after the first 30 seconds of an exercise until 3 minutes into that exercise. The first 30 seconds of exercise are most heavily reliant on the phosphogenic pathway for energy production.

Atom balance is maintained by the two phosphate (P i) groups: Each exists in the form of a hydrogen phosphate anion, dissociating to contribute ...

  7. Carbohydrate metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_metabolism

    In some tissues and organisms, glycolysis is the sole method of energy production. [2] This pathway is common to both anaerobic and aerobic respiration. [1] Glycolysis consists of ten steps, split into two phases. [2] During the first phase, it requires the breakdown of two ATP molecules. [1] During the second phase, chemical energy from the ...

  8. Anaerobic exercise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_exercise

    The lactic anaerobic system, which features anaerobic glycolysis. [12] High energy phosphates are stored in limited quantities within muscle cells. Anaerobic glycolysis exclusively uses glucose (and glycogen) as a fuel in the absence of oxygen, or more specifically, when ATP is needed at rates that exceed those provided by aerobic metabolism.

  9. Cellular waste product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_waste_product

    Anaerobic respiration is correspondingly less efficient than aerobic respiration. In the absence of oxygen, not all of the carbon-carbon bonds in glucose can be broken to release energy. A great deal of extractable energy is left in the waste products. Anaerobic respiration generally occurs in prokaryotes in environments that do not contain oxygen.
