When an individual is exercising heavily and when the muscle becomes oxygen-deprived, muscle cells convert pyruvate to lactate.
What happens to the lactate in skeletal muscle cells? a. It is converted to NAD+.
b. It produces CO2 and water.
c. It is taken to the liver and converted back to pyruvate.
d. It reduces FADH2 to FAD+.
e. It is converted to alcohol.
In anaerobic conditions or when the oxygen is limited, the pyruvate enters the anaerobic respiration.
During heavy exercise when the ATP is required in high amount then then oxygen is also required in high amount but due to lack of oxygen, pyruvate formed as a result of the glycolysis is converted to lactate. Lactate acts as electron acceptor taking the role of the oxygen.
This lactic acid diffuses into the blood plasma which is then carried to the liver. In the liver Cori cycle converts the lactate back to the pyruvate form or glucose form.

Advise Mr. Walker to call 911 and be seen in the emergency room. SOA, pressure in the chest and sweating (diaphoresis) are i indicators of heart attack. I would suggest a low dose of baby aspirin too to thin the blood in the event it is a heart attack.
Gently swishing a nonalcoholic mouthwash around the mouth can help loosen tonsil stones and reduce the amount of bacteria in the mouth. Having less bacteria can help prevent tonsil stones from forming. Nonalcoholic mouthwash is available in drugstores and online.
It's normal for a baby to show his first tooth as early as four months, or a late child could be 15 months . A few babies are even born with a tooth! A child should be between two and a half years old or three years old before he/she has a full set of their teeth .
