An athlete who excels at short sprints most likely has more fast glycolytic muscle fibers as compared to a marathoner.

<h3>What are glycolytic muscle fibers?</h3>

The glycolytic muscle fibers are muscle fibers that form a portion of tissue where ATP, the energy coin for the cells, is produced via anaerobic respiration by a cellular process called glycolysis (the first step of cellular respiration).

Anaerobic respiration is different from cellular respiration because produces energy in a faster mode but it is less efficient.

In conclusion, an athlete who excels at short sprints most likely has more fast glycolytic muscle fibers as compared to a marathoner.

In this senerio, a particular genetic strain of Drosophila melanogaster reproduce at an earlier age than do other strains of this species at the expense of its lifecycle as this will cause a shortage of its lifecycle which is a negative aftermath compared to other strains that do not reproduce early.

How are homologous chromosomes different from chromatids?
saul85 [17]

Explanation:

Homologous chromosomes are 2 physically different chromosomes that have the same genes but are not genetically identical. Sister chromatids are 2 copies of a single chromosome and so are genetically identical (they also are physically attached to one another).
