The prime mover in a regular bench press is the pectoral muscle(s). To be specific the pectoralis major. The secondary muscles would include the triceps and the anterior deltoid.

Lactic acid buildup is caused by what?
As you perform strenuous exercise, your breathing increases in an attempt to send more oxygen to your working muscles. Although the body prefers to generate most of its energy by using oxygen in an aerobic method, strenuous activities require energy production faster than our bodies can adequately deliver oxygen to. Because of this, muscles generate energy anaerobically, with energy coming from glucose through a process called glycolysis, where glucose is broken down into a substance called pyruvate. When the body has enough oxygen, pyruvate is sent to an aerobic pathway to be broken down for more energy. When energy is limited, the body converts pyruvate into a substance called lactate, which allows glucose to breakdown to continue energy production.

What does aerobic exercise do to your muscles?
Aerobic exercise means your muscles are getting exercised at a rate where the muscles are not being depleted of oxygen faster than the blood, from the heart and lungs, can supply it. This allows the muscles to work at maximum efficiency.
Aerobic exercise will not reduce the strength, size or endurance of muscles, but it will not help increase them. To work on increasing those, exercise needs to be anaerobic/resistive: high load for short periods. It is best to combine resistive and aerobic exercise to achieve all round strength and fitness.

Is working out twice a day for 30 minutes enough to lose weight?
There's really no telling, it's all down to what you're eating, how hard you're working out, and how long you're keeping it up.
With the high-calorie foodstuffs we have available today, every attempt at weight loss pretty much has to start by controlling your intake.
For most of us, it's just not possible to exercise hard enough to compensate for a really poor diet. One single cupcake outside your allowance will take something like 45 minutes of hard workout to use up.
But with a consistent pattern of a controlled diet and exercise, it's possible to lose 1-3 pounds/week w/o any health concerns.
Why does a person's skin get red when they're hot?
The body has a core temperature of about 98.6F for most people. If you are in a hot environment, or have just taken a nice hot shower/bath, your core body temp is going to be affected. To get rid of the heat, the superficial blood vessels, just under your skin, dilate to release the heat to the skin, sometimes in the form of perspiration with a little help from the eccrine (sweat) glands. When those blood vessels dilate so close to the surface of the skin, it causes the skin to become red, flushed or florrid.
How much reps and sets should a 14 year old do with a 20 lb dumbell?
It really would depend on what exercise you're actually doing with the dumbbell. 20 lbs is pretty heavy for a person just beginning weight lifting. Be sure that you've been trained how to properly do whatever exercise. Maintaining proper form during an exercise is critical to increasing muscle mass- if you aren't exercising the proper muscle group, you can't expect to see gains. You might want to consider purchasing an adjustable dumbbell, which will let you adjust the weight you're using to a particular exercise. Also, as you improve, you'll be able to increase the weight you're using without having to go out and buy another dumbbell.
