Muscle cells, also known as myocytes, contain numerous amounts of mitochondria inside of their cytoplasm. Mitochondria are organelles that are popularly known as the powerhouse of the cell because they function to process different biochemicals (such as glucose, oxygen, etc) and produce essentially Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). Kreb's Cycle in particular talks about energy production, and the mitochondria is one of the main units where this cycle happens. You can think of ATP as the currency of the body in terms of energy. The more ATP one has, the more energy there is available for use by the different systems of the body. Muscles in particular have high demand for ATP.
Answer:
Glucose utilization would increase a lot.
Explanation:
Aerobic condition indicates the presence of large amount of oxygen in the body. Anaerobic condition means that the oxygen is limited or deficient in the body.
The muscle cells shows anaerobic condition during exercise and produces lactic acid. Since, the ATP demand is same in both the aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This increases the demand of glucose in the body. Glucose utilization is increased to provide proper energy to the individual.
Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
Is this a multiple choice question?
Answer:
The correct answer is - law of dominance.
Explanation:
Law of dominance - Mendel's law of dominance expresses that in a heterozygote, one trait masks the expression of another trait for a similar characteristic. As opposed to the two alleles adding to a phenotype, the dominant allele will be show itself individually and specifically.
