Answer:

The correct answer will be to increase the chances of fertilization.

Explanation:

A male ejaculate high number of sperms (50 million) out of which only in hundreds reaches the egg cell as they get exhausted, trapped and die on the way to the egg cell.

1. Out of 50 million only 1 million reaches the uterus as mostly are trapped in mucus and some get killed by the acidic nature of the vaginal wall.

2. Out of 1 million only 10,000 sperms swim to reach the openings of oviduct where one oviduct will have the eggs.

3. Only hundreds of sperm out of 10,000 reaches fallopian tube where the egg is lodged as rest dies in the fallopian tube as for the distance is long.

So many sperms get devastated and killed on the way to egg cell due to which the high number of sperms are released from the human male.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The answer to this question lies in the number of steps, and substances, that are needed in order to yield ATP from ADP. While in anaerobic glycolysis pyruvic acid and lactic acid will yield their energy so that ADP can be re-synthetized into ATP, producing 2 molecules of ATP from that simple chain of reaction, aerobic glycolysis depends on the presence of oxygen, and several more chemical steps, chemical reactions, in order to finally yield all the ATPs it can yield.

Explanation:

When we are talking about intense training, like a sudden sprint, we are talking about the body needing ATP as fast as it possibly can get it so the muscles can move. Because of this immediacy, the body resorts first to its stores in muscle tissue and in the liver, to feed the anaerobic processes for ATP formation. The other process, called the Lactic Acid system, is the second of the anaerobic processes and its benefit is that while not requiring oxygen to produce ATP, it will use the stores of glycogen in the muscle and the liver, and through the chemical reactions of enzymes, it will produce enough ATP to power the exercise for at least a few minutes, without having to resort to the aerobic system. The number of steps taken to yield ATP are much lesser, and thus much more immediate, than in aerobic glycolysis.
