How long can the muscles of vertebrates work in the absence of oxygen?

14 to 15 days


Why cant you run for as long if you have less oxygen in your blood?

because your blood carries oxygen to you muscles. without much oxygen blood won't be able to take lots to your muscles, and with little oxygen your muscles won't work as well and therefore you won't run as quickly :)


How long does it take to get oxygen to the muscles?

This is called aerobic exercise. All aerobic activity requires oxygen.


Do muscles need oxygen to work?

Yes, cardiac muscles cells have a very high oxygen demand, since they are constantly in motion. This is why any shortage of oxygen causes angina, or if the oxygen deprivation is long enough, it causes death of the muscle cells - what is commonly called a heart attack.


When does fermentation place in your muscles cell?

Fermentation take place in your muscle cell when there is a low supply of oxygen. This is mostly after long hours of workouts which strain the muscles.


How are penguins adapted to stay underwater for a long period of time?

They have muscles that store large amounts of oxygen


Why might a runner get cold after finishing a long distance race?

The runner's muscles needed a lot of energy to run during the race. To obtain this energy, his blood first supplies his muscles with oxygen from the lungs. The muscles, through a process called respiration, convert the oxygen and stored sugars into energy. During the race, his muscles used oxygen at a faster rate than his body could supply them with, creating an oxygen debt. To pay back an oxygen debt, a person must breathe at a fast rate. Therefore, the runner was out of breath after the race to pay back his oxygen debt.


What is the duration of The Long Absence?

The duration of The Long Absence is 1.42 hours.


When was The Long Absence created?

The Long Absence was created on 1961-05-17.


How do human muscle cells get oxygen?

The process in muscles which uses oxygen is called respiration. Muscles, like all aerobic living cells, require oxygen for aerobic respiration, which is the process by which cells convert food into energy. So when muscles contract, they are using oxygen. When muscles do not get sufficient oxygen for contraction, problems arise. The muscle cells must use anaerobic repiration which is respiration without oxygen. They cannot do this for very long though as the byproduct of anaerobic respiration is lactic acid which causes a fall in pH.


Are long eared jerboas vertebrates or invertebrates?

Long eared jerboas, a type of small rodent, are mammals, and all mammals are vertebrates.


Why do both your heart rate and breathing rates increase when you exercise?

Increased metabolism required to make your body move more quickly or muscles work harder requires oxygen. The blood carries oxygen, and the lungs help the oxygen get into the blood. The heart goes faster so the oxygen can be delivered more quickly.Over the long term, they actually decrease with exercise, as the body gets more tuned. The short term increase in pulse rate and breathing rate, are to get more oxygen to the muscles. The heart higher breath intake is to get more oxygen in the blood stream. The heart rate increase is to get the bloodflow higher so even more oxygen can get into the muscles.
