What is the byproduct that muscles produce when they are forced to work without sufficient oxygen?

When muscles work without enough oxygen, they produce a byproduct called lactic acid.


How does lactic acid get into your muscles?

Answer: Lactic acid gets into our muscle through lactic acid fermantation. Fermantation is getting a cell energy without using oxygen.


What acid is associated with muscles in the body experiencing lack of oxygen?

Lactic acid is associated with muscles experiencing lack of oxygen, which can occur during intense exercise or when the muscles are not receiving enough oxygen to produce energy aerobically. This buildup of lactic acid can contribute to muscle fatigue and soreness.


What happens to pyruvic acid after there is no oxygen?

If oxygen is present it is converted to Acetyl-CoA and enters citric acid cycle If oxygen is not present is will become lactic acid and /or ethanol


What is pyruvic acid converted to when there is a inadequate oxygen?

Pyruvic acid is converted into lactate when there is inadequate oxygen, a process known as anaerobic respiration or fermentation. This allows for the regeneration of NAD+ to keep glycolysis running, even without sufficient oxygen for oxidative phosphorylation in the electron transport chain.


What is the breakdown of food without the use of oxygen?

The breakdown of food without the use of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. This process produces energy in the form of ATP without requiring oxygen. However, it generates lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts, depending on the organism carrying out the process.


What is the acid that does not contain oxygen?

Only carboxylic acids contain carboxyl groups. Only organic acids have them--obviously, since an organic acid contains carbon and so does a carboxyl group. So...most acids don't contain carboxyl groups.


Why is the citric acid cycle called an anaerobic cycle when it does not use oxygen?

The fact that it does not use oxygen is precisely why it is anaerobic. Anaerobic means without oxygen. If it did use oxygen, it'll be called aerobic.


What acid is O2?

O2 denotes oxygen. It is element. It is not an acid.


What acid builds up in muscles during heavy exercise without enough oxygen?

Lactic acid builds up and that's why it starts to burn.
