Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The energy system used for a particular activity will depend on the:
A
intensity of the activity
B
duration of the activity
C
both of the above
D
none of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The energy system being predominantly used is dependent on the type of activity being performed. The predominant energy system being used will depend on the intensity and duration of exercise and the fitness level of the performer.

Detailed explanation-2: -The human body has two main energy systems it gets its power from; the aerobic and the anaerobic system.

Detailed explanation-3: -For exercise lasting longer than three minutes, the oxidative pathway is used. Unlike the others, this energy system requires oxygen. The increase in respiratory rate meets the oxygen demand during physical activity. The oxidative system is slow, but is also the most efficient.

Detailed explanation-4: -Aerobic System The metabolic reactions that take place in the presence of oxygen are responsible for most of the cellular energy produced by the body.

Detailed explanation-5: -Anaerobic Alactic (ATP-CP) Energy System (High Intensity – Short Duration/Bursts) Anaerobic Lactic (Glycolytic) Energy System (High to Medium Intensity – Uptempo) Aerobic Energy System (Low Intensity – Long Duration – Endurance) 28-Mar-2019
