Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which fiber type has a poor blood supply and fatigues fast and uses Glycogen its sole energy source?
A
Slow Oxidative
B
Fast Oxidative
C
Fast Glycolytic
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Glycolytic fibers primarily create ATP through anaerobic glycolysis, which produces less ATP per cycle. As a result, glycolytic fibers fatigue at a quicker rate.

Detailed explanation-2: -Human fast-twitch muscle fibers generate high power in a short amount of time but are easily fatigued, whereas slow-twitch fibers are more fatigue resistant.
