Options are not provided in the question. The complete question is:

What exactly is the link between the extra glycogen associated with carbohydrate loading and enhanced performance in endurance sports?

a. The extra glycogen serves as a reservoir for glucose, which serves as the main fuel molecule for increased cellular respiration, resulting in more available ATP.

b. The extra glycogen undergoes the process of deamination, which is the first step in the breakdown of the carbon chains needed for ATP synthesis.

c.The extra glycogen is used during beta oxidation, which is a series of chemical reactions resulting in the formation of acetyl coenzyme A, which is essential to start the citric acid cycle of aerobic cellular respiration.

d. All of the listed responses explain the link between carbohydrate loading and enhanced performance in endurance sports.

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose which represents the main storage form of glucose in the body.

During sports, a lot of energy is required. The glycogen serves to fulfil all the enrgy requirement of the body. The extra glycogen associated with carbohydrate or glucose serves energy to cellular respiration due to increase in physical actvities and provide more ATP.

Hence, the correct option is a.

Why do X-linked traits appear more often in males
Tpy6a [65]
X - linked traits appear more often in males because males only have one x chromosome. One copy of an x - linked trait is all that a male would need to possess that trait. Females have two x chromosomes, so they would require 2 copies of the x - linked trait in order to possess it.
