A swimmer sprints a short distance for competition. The swimmer is not able to take in enough oxygen to make the ATP needed for the sprint. Which of the following processes is most likely going to occur in the swimmer's muscle cells during the competition? (2 points)

A. Aerobic respiration would continue until oxygen is no longer available, leading to cell death.

B. Aerobic respiration will continue to make the same amount of ATP since oxygen is not required.

C. Anaerobic respiration would be used to produce small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen.

D. Anaerobic respiration will produce more ATP than the process used in the presence of oxygen.

<u>Answer:</u>

A swimmer sprints a short distance for competition. The swimmer is not able to take in enough oxygen to make the ATP needed for the sprint. Anaerobic respiration would be used to produce small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen and it is the process happens in the swimmer's muscle cells during competition.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • A Swimming sprinter will spend his maximum energy while to cover a short distance in his competition. Quickly he will reduce his oxygen level.
  • Oxygen will produce an ATP molecule (Adenosine Triphosphate) which is required for a sprinter.
  • The ATP molecule will produce energy for the cells. Aerobic respiration takes place only when in the presence of oxygen.
  • While swimming they will not get enough oxygen so the Anaerobic respiration takes place to produce ATP molecule.

What do scientists use to mark boundaries in the geologic time scale?
tekilochka [14]

Era is used to mark the boundaries of geological time scale by using radio carbon dating technique.

Explanation:

Geological time starts with Precambrian time.

Geologically, time is divided between the Precambrian era and present time into era.

The three eras are Paleozoic era, Triassic period and Cenozoic era.

Era is further divided into periods.

Scientists use radio carbon dating to study fossils and rock formation. With this study they were able to divide them in exact geological scale.

Geologic scale is the record of events in earth's history and evolution.

***see attached pic***

Some helpful tips:

The nucleus is always going to be the big, spherical shape.

The ER is always going to be a weird, folded looking structure attached to the nucleus (rough = has ribosomes on it which are usually represented by little dots, smooth = has no ribosomes on it aka no dots)

The GA looks like the ER but it is not going to be attached to the nucleus like the ER is.

The mitochondria is always going to be pill-shaped and have weird folds inside of it.
