anaerobic respiration causes a build up of lactic acid in your muscles which causes cramp.

What do fermentation and lactic acid have in common?

Both occur anaerobically, or with exercise, but lactic acid occurs in muscles (you know that burning sensation after muscle fatigue? It's from lactic acid buildup in muscles) and alcoholic fermentation occurs by yeast. So basically, the main thing that they have in common is just that they occur anaerobically.


What is a anaerobically?

Anaerobically refers to a process or organism that operates without the presence of oxygen. This can occur in situations where oxygen is not available, such as in deep ocean environments or during intense exercise when muscles rely on anaerobic metabolism.


Muscles operating anaerobically are said to be in a state of?

Oxygen Debt


What happens when yeast respires anaerobically?

Nothing


What molecule builds up in muscles to make them function anaerobically?

lactate


Why is it that you can exercise for a longer period of time when you exercise aerobically than when exercise anaerobically?

Anaerobic exercise uses about 10 times more energy than aerobic exercise, and you have more "fuel" available for aerobic exercise. Anaerobic exercise also produces lactic acid, which is what causes your muscles to burn.


When do humen breth anaenrobically and What is happens?

Humans never breathe anaerobically. Respiration in cells can occur without adequate oxygen, but lactic acid builds up as a byproduct, and can be destructive. This is why your muscles ache after exercise. After you stop, heavy breathing increases oxygen which in turn breaks down the lactic acid, restoring equilibrium.


What Happens to muscles after execise?

After exercise muscles fill up with lactic acid. a cool down is always essential after exercise. preferably stretching to release the acid which causes muscle pain.


Which part of human body respires anaerobically and why?

Muscle cells can respire anaerobically during intense exercise when there is not enough oxygen available to meet the demands for energy. This leads to the production of lactic acid as a byproduct. Anaerobic respiration helps provide quick bursts of energy when oxygen is limited, but it is less efficient than aerobic respiration.


What happens to your breathing when you excerise?

Your breathing speeds up when you exercise in order to get oxygen to your muscles and heart.


What makes your hands to swell when running?

Your muscles swell up after exercise. This happens largely because there is increased blood supply to the muscles. Resting muscles get half litre of blood per minute. After exercise the muscles get twenty litres of blood per minute.


What happens if enough glucose doesn't reach the muscle during exercise?

the muscles produce lactic acid which then relieves the muscles but it results in muscle cramps
