|
|
Fast rate, high yield
|
|
|
Slow rate, low yield
|

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The aerobic system produces far more ATP than either of the other energy systems but it produces the ATP much more slowly, therefore it cannot fuel intense exercise that demands the fast production of ATP.
Detailed explanation-2: -Phosphagen. This system uses creatine phosphate (CP) and has a very rapid rate of ATP production.
