Document Summary

Bisc extra 5 - fuel activity oct. 5. Fuel use for cell respiration during different activities. What fuel molecules did we considerer in the cell reparation lecture. Fat burn = low intensity; 65-70% max heart rate. Cardio = high intensity; 80-90% max heart rate. Bmr ( migration, exercise , extreme cold , parental care) Migration - using technology to track the activity of wild animals over large distance. Elephant seal with satellite tag and dive recorder. Long distance migration; advantages of string and burning fat. Fat is easier to store because it has a high energy density. Fat = 39. 6 ( kj/g dry) 90% energy ( water content = 5% ), protein 17. 8 ( kj/g dry ) 10 % energy( water content = 70%) Why is protein catabolized during long ights ? ( burning the engine ) - advantages.
