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.
Answer:
The option c is partly correct.
Explanation:
None of the statements is completely accurate because:
a. Saurischian dinosaurs include theropod and sauropod dinosaurs, and their common ancestors. Ornithischians comprise neornithischians (ornithopods and ceratopsians), thyreophorans (ankylosaurs and stegosaurs) and heterdontosaurids.
b. Capability to fly has only been documented in fossils belonging to Saurischia (where the birds are also classified in). Feathers, on the other hand, do appear in the two clades. Feathers, however, are not a trait exclusively associated to flight.
c. This is a correct comparison between ornithischians and saurischians in the sense that the attributes do belong to these clades, but when comparing animals there most be a comparison that reflects a pattern. Ornithischians have leaf shaped teeth suited to eat plant material, whereas saurischians have teeth for a carnivore and herbivore diet.
d. Sauropods are saurischians and they evolved herbivory from a meat-eater ancestor.
