TRUE. Lactid acid is produced in muscles during rapid exercise when the body cannot supply enough oxygen to the tissues to produce all of the ATP required. The build up of lactic acid causes a burning, painful sensation or a cramp.
True
oxygen
Lactic acid fermentation occurs due to the lack of oxygen in the the muscle cells Aerobic respiration requires oxygen as an electron receiver to complete the electron transport system, so without it, the cells will be unable to undergo normal respiration and will resort to lactic acid fermentation
Lactic Acid Fermentation
Human muscle cells undergo lactic acid fermentation in low oxygen conditions.
The type of fermentation that sometimes occurs in human muscle cells is Lactic Acid fermentation.
Cells that do not require oxygen go through anaerobic respiration, which is a form of cellular respiration that uses fermentation to turn energy into useful energy. There are two types of anaerobic respiration, lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation. Muscle cells do this when they run out of oxygen and go through fermentation instead. The product of this type of fermentation from muscle cells is lactic acid. Lactic acid is toxic and causes soreness and fatigue. Anybody who has been sore after exercise has experienced lactic acid fermentation.

Lactic acid fermentation is an anaerobic process. This means that lactic acid is produced in the absence of oxygen. This usually occur in bacteria cells but can also occur in muscle cells.
A+ students - anaerobic The process in which cells don't use oxygen is called Fermentation. Fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are different, lactic acid fermentation uses the oxygen faster than you can breathe so you feel muscle pains.
cellular respiration if there is enough oxygen. Lactic Acid fermentation if there is a lack of oxygen.
