During exercise, muscle cells immediately use ATP as the energy source for contractions.

The only immediate source of energy for muscular contraction is ATP. Within muscle fibers, ATP is replenished by creatine phosphate (anaerobic respiration), glycolysis (anaerobic respiration), and cellular respiration (aerobic respiration). As the duration and intensity increase, carbohydrates (glucose/glycogen) become the primary source of fuel. If exercise is sustained for an extended period of time, fatty acids will be used as a fuel source when glycogen stores are nearly depleted.

ATP is a form of instant energy. The body cannot obtain energy directly from glucose. Glucose is not a direct source of energy. Instead, the body uses the energy released from the breakdown of glucose to drive ADP phosphorylation.

Incomplete question. Here are the missing parts.

What will happen to the substances in this diagram to bring the concentrations closer to equilibrium?
A. The solute will flow into the cell from the surrounding environment.
B. Nothing will change--it is already in equilibrium.
C. Water will flow into the cell from the surrounding environment.
D. Water will flow out of the cell and into the surrounding environment.

My answer:
D. Water will flow out of the cell and into the surrounding environment.

The solute cannot pass through and go inside the cell, water has to flow from the cell to the surrounding environment to bring the concentration closer to equilibrium.
