Because of the concentrations of ATP and ADP in the cell, the conditions are very favorable for the use of the hydrolysis of ATP as an energy source. In fact, many processes with positive ÎG values can take place when coupled with the hydrolysis of ATP.
78-84 degrees: Race directors use their judgement to allow or not allow wetsuits at this range. Over 84 degrees: Wetsuits not allowed. The range of 50 to 78 degrees is therefore the ideal range for using a wetsuit. Any warmer, and the swimmer may actually overheat due to the wetsuitâs insulative qualities. Any colder, and the water is dangerously frigid for a swim.
