Answer:

Anaerobic respiration resulting in oxygen debt, due to lactic acid accumulation.

Explanation:

After strenuous muscle activity extra oxygen is needed to re-convert lactic acid into glucose and ATP. As you exercise the liver anaerobically converts glucose to lactic acid and carbon dioxide this results in oxygen debts that needs to be repaid later.

Oxygen debt by definition is the amount of oxygen needed by muscles to oxidise lactic acid to glucose after muscle activity.

What are bio-fuels considered carbon neutral?

uranmaximum [27]

“The U.S. government considers biodiesel to be carbon-neutral because the plants that are the sources of the feedstocks for making biodiesel, such as soybeans and palm oil trees, absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) as they grow. The absorption of CO2 by these plants offsets the CO2 that forms while making and burning biodiesel.”
