Answer:

A. anaerobic respiration in muscle cells, forming lactic acid

Explanation:

Running marathon is a vigorous exercise, which often leads to excessive use of oxygen in the cells of the athlete. This causes the cells to switch from the aerobic (with oxygen) to the anaerobic (without oxygen) mode of respiration. This anaerobic respiration produces a product called LACTATE OR LACTIC ACID.

The lactic acid becomes excessive and gets stored in the muscle cells of the athlete. This often leads to cramps, muscle pulls etc. during the marathon. Therefore, an individual running a marathon may experience periods of oxygen deprivation that can lead to anaerobic respiration in muscle cells, forming lactic acid.

what happens to ocean water as it moves from antarctica to the equator? it transfers thermal energy to deeper layers of the ocea
muminat
Ocean waters has its own level of density which depends of the climate, temperature and most of all the location where it came from. The more the ocean water absorbs heat the more its density as a result it rises above from cold to hot. So the the water from the Antarctica usually is less dense and then become more dense when it goes to the equator which is more hot.
