How is lactic acid involved with muscle fatigue and oxygen debt?

When there is not enough oxygen for cells to operate at maximum ability, they undergo anaerobic respiration, the major product of which is lactic acid. Lactic acid causes immense pain and a burning sensation - muscle fatigue - which is the body's defense against being worked to the point where the muscle cells are destroyed by the buildup of acid and permanent damage is done.


Does lactic acid affect performance?

Yes; lactic acid is the reason muscles cramp. It is a byproduct of when muscle cells perform glycolosis for energy in the absence of oxygen (occurs during repeated exercise of the muscle tissue because oxygen cannot be delivered fast enough).


When muscles are contracting under oxygen deficient conditions what is formed to ensure they maintain a supply of ATP?

Muscle cells produce lactic acid during anaerobic fermentation. A buildup of lactic acid cause your muscles to feel tired.


When muscles are overworked soreness is caused bu a buildup of what?

The presence of too much lactic acid in muscle cells causes damage called lactic acid burn. This condition occurs when respiration takes place with insufficient oxygen.


What heavy exercise the buildup of lactic acid in muscle cells results?

Oxygen Debt- A cumulative deficit of oxygen resulting from intense exercise; the deficit must be made up when the body returns to rest.


What relationship exists between lactic acid and exercise?

Exercise induces the lack of oxygen that causes the waste buildup known as lactic acid.


When no oxygen is present for muscle cells after glycolysis what will the cell produce?

Lactic Acid :)


Muscle cells in oxygen deprivation convert pyruvate to?

lactic acid


When muscle cells undergo anaerobic respiration they become fatigued and painful this is now know to be caused by?

This is caused by a buildup of lactic acid.


Why do your muscles burn in the absence of oxygen?

The "burning" sensation you feel is not combustion. It is due to a buildup of lactic acid.


Why does the body need to remove lactic acid?

# How is lactic acid buildup dealt with by the body?


In order for the muscle fatigue to end the muscle cells must be provided with what?

In order for the muscle fatigue to end the muscle cells must be provided with oxygen to 'burn' the lactic acid.
