Which energy source would you expect to be depleted first during continuous contractions caused by the tetanus toxin?

Biology

The answer is: ATP generated by oxidative or aerobic catabolism

Tetanus causes the continuous contraction of muscles, a condition known as rhabdomyolysis, that leads to depletion of oxygen in the body. Without that oxygen, the mitochondria in our cells can't make aerobic respiration, which produces a lot of ATP molecules. That's the reason why ATP is depleted.

What are the two types of respiration, and how are they different?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The process of respiration can take place in the presence as well as absence of oxygen. Hence, respiration is of two types: 1. Aerobic respiration and. 2. Anaerobic respiration.

Aerobic respiration is far more energy-efficient than anaerobic respiration.

Aerobic processes produce up to 38 ATP per glucose.

Anaerobic processes yield only 2 ATP per glucose.
