Ex Phys Multimedia

The next section/topic introduces you to the connection biology and chemistry have with exercise. I have split the topics we cover in this section into the following:

1. Oxidation/reduction and their link with enzymes and coenzymes (NAD/NADH role in ATP production during anaerobic metabolism)
2. Chemical and ventilatory buffers (clearing lactic acid & carbon dioxide)
3. Condensation/dehydration synthesis reactions (in digestion and synthesis of carbohydrates/glucose <--> glycogen)
4. Hypertonic and hypotonic solutions in relation to electrolytes (sodium and chloride function
5. Passive and active transport across cellular membranes (% carbohydrate in drinks for absorption)
6. Cellular respiration and the role chemical bonds play in ATP production (ATP-->ADP+P and ATP production in aerobic and anaerobic metabolism)

Your assignment is for each of you to choose one of the above and complete the following:

1. Explain where the chemistry/biology topic above is demonstrated in an Ex.Phys. concept. Be specific and provide examples.
2. Site and summarize/explain one professional scientific study that relates to the chemistry topic/EP topic above.
3. Create and publish your information somewhere (wiki or blog)
