Our bodies use energy when we are sleeping for . . . * Keeping our lungs going so we can still breathe. This of course, happens involunterly. * Keeping our brains working. They send out all of the vital messages and make sure our organs keep operating. They will register pain and present images in our subconsious i.e. dreams. * Maintaining body temperature. * The digestion of food. * Regeneration. While we don't require energy for other things, the body will use it to heal injuries and refresh the body. Your brain also uses energy to store memories.

What conditions must exist for lactic acid to form in the muscles?

Muscles use glucose/fructose/sucrose(sugars) plus oxygen from the blood when working at a moderate pace, known as the aerobic level of energy use, and with no release of lactic acid. At more strenuous levels(such as a fight or flight response following a sudden encounter with a momma-bear), however, oxygen isnâ??t as readily available, and muscle cells are creating energy with the downside of also creating lactic acid. This is anaerobic activity. Through glycolysis, glucose is broken down into pyruvate during aerobic energy use, but in anaerobic, because of the lack of oxygen, the body converts pyruvate into lactate for producing energy.
