Mauro Prosperi was a police officer and resistance runner, Prosperi took part in 1994 at the Marathon des Sables, an ultramarathon held in Morocco, then lost his way due to a sand storm, and remained several hours without eating or drinking.

Stress and contraction muscle converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is essential for muscle contraction; the problem is that the stock of ATP must be constantly renewed as it is weak and largely solicited by effort.

In an endurance sport (as Mauro practiced), the recycling of ADP into ATP is mainly through cellular respiration and it is the type I fibers that intervene, which allowed it to survive and maintain its energy capital.

<span>he recycling of ATP is so important for cell function because ATP is the primary transportation molecule of energy.</span>

A molecule that can be used as a molecular clock has a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years. How many years
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

20 million years

Explanation:

If we have a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years, then the total of eight mutation between the two different species would be 20 million years. This is because both species will have 4 mutations in those 20 million years, so combined, both by 4, will have 8 mutations between them. So few mutations on so much time will result in two species that are very similar to each other even after 20 million years of evolution, even making them hardly distinguishable, especially if it comes to defining fossil records from them both. A nice example of this are the members of the felidae (cat) family, which are all very closely related, and are almost identical, thus making it extremely hard to distinguish two species of the same or similar size by their fossils.
