MUSCLE ENERGETICS ATP AND CP

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The anaerobic glycolysis system
A
operates without oxygen
B
provides energy for about 10 seconds to 90 seconds
C
is used for high intensity exercise
D
all of the above
E
none of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -This system uses glucose in the blood or glycogen to form ATP rapidly without oxygen. If glucose is used, it generates 2 ATPs, while if glycogen is used, it forms 3 ATPs. The end product of this energy system is lactic acid. As lactic acid accumulates, the production of ATP via anaerobic glycolysis starts declining.

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of anaerobic exercise include running and biking sprints and high-intensity weight training.
