When the shot rang out, Kevin lunged forward. The strong contractions of the muscle fibers in his well-conditioned legs got him off to a quick start. The supply of ATP stored in his muscle cells was quickly used up as his muscles worked Kevin began becathing faster, so that more oxygen would reach his muscle cells, permitting them to do [ cellular respiration and make more ATPs. The oxygen he was inhaling traveled through his blood and into each of his muscle cells. The oxygen passed into the 121, the organelles called the powerhouses of the cell. The oxygen waited at the bottom of the stage called the [31, and caught the [4] which tumbled down the chains. As a result. Kevin's muscle cells were able t to obtain 36-38 ATPs for each molecule of glucose burned, Kevin used every bit of this energy during the first part of the race As the race continued, Kevin's muscles required more energy, and therefore more oxygen, so Kevin breathed even more rapidly. Soon, however, he reached a point where he could simply not breathe any faster. His muscle cells began to run out of [5], and he had to switch from aerobic to [6] cellular respiration. He was still able to get 2 ATPs from the stage called [7], but that was not enough for his muscle cells, so they started to fatigue. During glycolysis, he was converting glucose to three-carbon molecules called [8], but since he was Jow on oxveen, he could not send them into the citie wid

He was still able to get 2 ATPs from the stage called [7], but that was not enough for his muscle cells, so they started to fatigue. During glycolysis, he was converting glucose to three-carbon molecules called [8], but since he was low on oxygen, he could not send them into the citric acid cycle. Instead, the pyruvates were changed into [9], a toxic substance which accumulated in his muscles and caused them to [10]. Fortunately, the race ended before things got any worse. Kevin had won the race by a few inches. As his teammates congratulated him, Kevin continued to breathe rapidly for a few minutes. He was doing this to repay the [11] debt he owed his body. Since he had been operating anaerobically (without [12]) for awhile, he needed to take in extra oxygen after the race to repay his body. The extra oxygen would be used to turn the poisonous [13] which had accumulated in his muscles back into [14], which could then be sent on to the [15] cycle and the [16] chain. Kevin waved to the cheering fans, unaware of the complex metabolic events that had brought him victory. Dicom
