Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Results in an increase in both myoglobin and mitochondria
A
aerobic exercise
B
anaerobic exercise
C
both
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Endurance exercise can also increase the amount of myoglobin in a cell, as increased aerobic respiration increases the need for oxygen. Myoglobin is found in the sarcoplasm and acts as an oxygen storage supply for the mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-2: -Aerobic exercise has long been known to be a potent regulator of skeletal muscle oxidative capacity (12, 13, 36), as chronic endurance exercise increases mitochondrial number/density and intrinsic mitochondrial function (15).
