Which of the following are adaptations of the muscular system?
A
Hypertrophy
B
Capilliarisation
C
Increased tolerance to lactate
D
Increased myoglobin stores
E
Increased bone density
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -If you have high levels of myoglobin in your urine, it usually indicates that you have extensive damage to your skeletal muscles, resulting in the rapid breakdown of muscle (rhabdomyolysis).

Detailed explanation-2: -Myoglobin facilitates oxygen diffusion. Myoglobin desaturates at the onset of muscle activity, which increases oxygen’s diffusion gradient from the capillaries to the cytoplasm. Myoglobin has also been shown to have enzymatic functions.

Detailed explanation-3: -myoglobin, a protein found in the muscle cells of animals. It functions as an oxygen-storage unit, providing oxygen to the working muscles. Diving mammals such as seals and whales are able to remain submerged for long periods because they have greater amounts of myoglobin in their muscles than other animals do.
