Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
During rest, energy is produced mostly
A
aerobically with oxygen
B
aerobically without oxygen
C
anaerobically with oxygen
D
anaerobically without oxygen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Your aerobic energy system uses oxygen to produce energy. This energy is then stored and used for longer periods of exercise at a low intensity. The system converts glycogen into glucose. The glucose is then broken down during multiple stages to produce hydrogen ions, which get converted into ATP.

Detailed explanation-2: -The aerobic system uses aerobic glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain in its production of ATP. It is the presence of oxygen, which allows this energy system to use these various fuel sources.
