When an athlete eats more protein or amino acids than he or she needs, the extra amino acids are either used in building the muscle tissues or are used in energy expenditure.

Proteins are the macromolecules composed of amino acid as polymers. Protein is an essential food component because it helps in the synthesis and repair of body parts, it help in growth and development, and also provides fuel to the body.

Muscle tissues are the ones responsible for the movement of the complete body. The tissues are rich in blood supply. They are of three categories: skeletal, cardiac and smooth. Any movement in body is possible only because of the contractions and relaxations of muscles.

Male sterility can result from excessively high temperatures around the testes. what adjustment is made to counteract the effect

Natalija [7]

The scrotum reacts to temperature. When it is cold, the scrotum shrinks, pulling the testes against the body to keep them warm. When it is hot, the scrotum relaxes, lowering the testes away from the body. This contractile ability of the scrotum can either raise or lower the temperature of the testes by a few degrees, ensuring that the optimum temperature for sperm production is maintained.
