Running, breathing, heartbeat, chewing all represent which use of energy?
|
Protein synthesis
|
|
Muscle contraction
|
|
Active transport

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Muscles need energy to produce contractions (Fig. 6). The energy is derived from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) present in muscles. Muscles tend to contain only limited quantities of ATP.
Detailed explanation-2: -Four functions of muscle contraction are movement, posture, joint stability, and heat production. Three types of muscle are skeletal, smooth, and cardiac.
Detailed explanation-3: -Energy for Muscles Muscles use ATP from aerobic respiration to contract. However, depending on muscle type (below), anaerobic respiration may be carried out to provide energy very quickly.
