Answer:

<h2>True.</h2>

Explanation:

Electrolytes are minerals that carry electric charges, positive or negative. Most common electrolytes are: sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, phosphate, bicarbonate and magnesium. These minerals dissolve in a fluid to form charged ions. They can be located in extracellular and intracellular fluids, in this case, sodium is the major cation (particle with positive charge) located in extracellular fluids (outside cells).

This is the opposite of aerobic. It does not involve oxygen to metabolize energy. Characteristic of this are activities that make you out of breath quickly like lifting weights.

3. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) - an energy molecule produced when oxygen reacts with glucose
