Eye shine colour id. Advertise Here. My wife just came in white as a ghost!Ha,ha! She heard something near one of the out buildings and shone a million CP spot light out there. She saw a large deer looking back at her. She was scared b/c the eyes glowed green.
As an intermediate pathway between the phosphagen and aerobic system, anaerobic glycolysis can produce ATP quite rapidly for use during activities requiring large bursts of energy over somewhat longer periods of time (30 seconds to three minutes max, or during endurance activities prior to steady state being achieved).
Here's what happens: 1  The muscle cells burn off the ATP they have floating around in about 3 seconds. 2  The phosphagen system kicks in and supplies energy for 8 to 10 seconds. 3  If exercise continues longer, then the glycogen-lactic acid system kicks in.  Finally, if exercise continues, then aerobic respiration takes over.
