ENERGY SYSTEMS Figure 1 shows a sprint cycle race. This activity involves cycling four laps of a 250 metre track‚ with the final lap being completed as fast as possible. Elite performers cover the final lap in times of between 10 and 11 seconds. (a) Name the main energy system being used in the final sprint to the finishing line and explain how this system provides energy for the working muscles.

elastin are the predominant constituents of the middle tunica media‚ and the outermost tunica adventitia‚ or tunica externa‚ is a connective tissue layer of variable thickness that provides support and transmits smaller blood and lymphatic vessels and nerves. The thickness of each tunic varies widely with location and function of the vessel. Arteries‚ subjected to considerable pressure fluctuations‚ have thicker walls overall‚ with the tunica media being thicker than the tunica adventitia. Veins‚ in contrast

1 Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Alcohol drinking has been practiced in the majority of human society since early times. Alcohol (ethyl alcohol) is a drug which acts principally as a depressant on central nervous system. Its effects on behavior are well known and regular use gives rise to an increased tolerance‚ so that the drinker needs to take gradually increasing amounts to obtain the same effect. Chronic excessive alcohol consumption leads to life threatening hazards (Best‚ 1999). Alcohol related diseases
