An air mass that forms in the north Atlantic ocean in winter over cold water and then comes ashore is a Continental polar (cP) or continental arctic (cA).

These air masses are chill, dehydrated, dry, and stable. These develop over northern Canada and Alaska as a consequence of radiational cooling. They drive southward, east of the Rockies into the Plains, then eastward.

Air masses are also determined and established on whether they develop over land or over water. Maritime air masses form over the water and are moist. Continental air masses form over land and are dry. Thus, an air mass that extends over northern Canada is named a continental polar air mass and is cold and dry.

REY [17]

Answer: Anaerobic respiration or Fermentation

Explanation:

When we are engaged in intense physical activity such as running or riding a bike, the muscles need energy to function and they get this from aerobic respiration.

They will quickly run out of the oxygen required to sufficiently use aerobic respiration however and will turn to anaerobic respiration which can produce energy in the absence of oxygen.

As the body uses anaerobic respiration however, lactic acid is produced and builds up in the muscles. It is this lactic acid that leads to the muscles feeling sore.
