Question

4. __(a)__ activities are those that do not require oxygen to generate the energy for muscular activity…..the __(b)__ is so high that oxygen cannot be delivered and utilized to produce energy, and can be carried out for only short periods of __(c)__ (how much time?)

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) anaerobic exercise; (b) intensity; (c) time (2-3 minutes)

Explanation:

Anaerobic exercise activities refer to the activities that consume glucose in order to produce energy (i.e., ATP) without the need for oxygen. During anaerobic activities, oxygen demand is higher than oxygen supply. Anaerobic activities are performed during exercises of higher intensity and short duration, usually 2 to 3 minutes in length. Some anaerobic activities include, for example, gymnastics, strength training, 100, 200 and 400 meter-races, swimming races, etc.
