Lactic acid is the chemical substance formed during anaerobic respiration in muscles when there is not enough oxygen available to meet energy demands.
Lactic acid. It lets your muscles function with a lack of oxygen (anaerobic respiration instead of aerobic respiration).
When muscle cells undergo anaerobic respiration they become fatigued and painful due to the buildup of pyruvate in cells. The pyruvate is converted to lactic acid.
Aerobic respiration is when there is enough oxygen to use by the muscles. This happpens in long distance running. Anaerobic respiration is when respiration continues without sufficient oxygen,This happens more often in sprinting. Anaerobic respiration forces the muscles to rip and repair more often, and become bigger and more efficient. This is why sprinters like Christine Ohuruogu tend to be more muscular than marathon runners such as Paula Radcliffe.
Yes, muscles switch to anaerobic respiration when they run out of oxygen during intense physical activity. This process allows for the production of energy without oxygen, but it generates lactic acid as a byproduct, which can lead to muscle fatigue. While anaerobic respiration provides a quick source of energy, it is less efficient than aerobic respiration and cannot be sustained for long periods.
Your body uses anaerobic respiration when there is not enough oxygen available to produce energy through aerobic respiration. This can happen during high-intensity activities like sprinting or weightlifting. Anaerobic respiration produces energy quickly but also leads to the accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles.

anaerobic respiration
you use oxygen in your muscles to do work and anaerobic respiration uses oxygen.
The burning sensation in the muscles is likely caused by lactic acid.
When oxygen runs out, the muscles and other cells need to obtain energy from oxygen and nutrients. Anaerobic respiration (respiration without oxygen) fills this need.
ugh.
It produces lactic acid which exhausts your muscles in no time
lactic acid
lactic acid
Because anaerobic respiration releases less energy than aerobic respiration.
When you are working the muscle hard.
Your body uses a substance called ATP as energy. ATP is usually created in aerobic respiration (resperiation using O2) by a complicated mechanism including the glycolysis cycle and are made in the mitochondria. ATP can also be created in anaerobic resperiation (without using O2) when there isn't enough oxygen to use aerobic respiration. When you exercise your muscles don't get enough oxygen to meet the demand for energy to use aerobic respiration so they also use anaerobic respiration. The downside the anaerobic respiration is it makes lactic acid also which builds up in the muscles causing pain. The lactic acid is carted away from the muscles but they hurt when the build up becomes too great.
