Answer:

B. Muscles are building up lactate from anaerobic respiration.

Explanation:

During excessive physical activities such as sprinting,  muscles carry out anaerobic respiration to compensate the need of ATP for their continuous contraction. It is done since oxygen availability can not meet the increased demand of ATP during excess physical activities. Anaerobic respiration in muscles converts pyruvate into lactate which in turn causes burning sensation in muscles.  Hence, her symptoms are due to increased oxygen demand and buildup of lactate in muscles.

The correct answer is speciation.
Speciation is the term that describes the evolutionary process causing populations to evolve into different species. There are four different types of speciation: allopatric, peripatric, parapatric and sympatric. In this case, the process described is an allopatric speciation, the most common of these four types. Allopatric speciation happens when populations are geographically separated, an event that obstructs the gene flow. Since the gene flow stops, the populations evolve in response to the different environments that they live in.

VMariaS [17]


The best answer is (1)

Fossil fuels are commercially available as an energy source.

They are very easy to find. More and more extractions of fossil fuels is going on everyday. With advancement in science and  technology, the refineries and extraction procedures have improved a lot. This makes their availability even better.

Fossil fuels are also easily combustible. Most combustion engines need to be powered with little amount of fuel to produce large amount of energy. Very large amounts of electricity can be  generated  from fossil fuels.
