Aurora borealis: collisions between gaseous particles in the earth"s atmosphere interact with charged particles released form the sun"s atmosphere. Energy from sun interaction with particles from the atmosphere (creates northern lights) Food--> broken down and transformed into energy within the body. Florence griffith joyner: 100m in 10. 49 sec (most muscular body type) Paula radcliffe: marathon in 2h14min (least muscular body type) Atp-pcr: generates energy quickly but within about 2 seconds it begins to lose power. Anaerobic glycolysis: breaking down cho has more processes meaning it takes longer to get the energy out (after running. 70s most of the energy you need is going to be coming from aerobic pathways, 800m) The longer you perform the less power you will be generating.
