Detailed explanation-1: -since anaerobic respiration is a two-step process, it gives energy faster. Thus, muscle cells break down glucose to produce lactic acid and energy. a lot of lactic acid gets accumulated in our muscles and this causes muscle cramps.
Detailed explanation-2: -This happens when the body can’t provide oxygen quick enough for aerobic respiration to take place. Anaerobic respiration produces energy much quicker than aerobic respiration but only produces 1/20th as much. Lactic acid is also produced, and this can build up in muscles causing pain, fatigue and an oxygen debt.
Detailed explanation-3: -Anaerobic respiration in muscle produces Lactic Acid and Energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -The accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles is responsible for muscle cramps.
