Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
After intense activity, your muscles feel sore because of
A
the accumulation of NAD+
B
the accumulation of lactic acid
C
the accumulation of ATP
D
the accumulation of carbon dioxide
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lactic Acid Buildup Causes Muscle Fatigue and Soreness. Anyone who has pushed themselves through an intense workout will be familiar with “feeling the burn”-that sensation of fatigue and pain that sets in when you subject your muscles to lifting heavy loads repeatedly or sprinting all-out.

Detailed explanation-2: -The accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles is responsible for muscle cramps.

Detailed explanation-3: -Accumulation of lactic acid in muscles due to prolonged anaerobic respiration leads to muscle fatigue and cramps.

Detailed explanation-4: -During intense exercise, there may not be enough oxygen available to complete the process, so a substance called lactate is made. Your body can convert this lactate to energy without using oxygen. But this lactate or lactic acid can build up in your bloodstream faster than you can burn it off.
