Answer:

With greater depth of the atmosphere, more air is pressing down from above. Therefore, air pressure is greatest at sea level and falls with increasing altitude. On top of Mount Everest, which is the tallest mountain on Earth, air pressure is only about one-third of the pressure at sea level.

Explanation:

The production of ATPs for skeletal muscle contraction depends on the conditions that the muscles are exposed to.

In presence of abundant oxygen, to the cells Aerobic respiration-cellular respiration is the most ideal. 32 ATPs and 4 C02 are produced as by-products during the process as by products majorly two C02 from each of the 2 acetyl Co A that enters the kerb's cycle.

Likewise direct phosphoryaltion of ADP to ATP gives 32.0 kj/mol of heat liberated but no C02 was produced. This takes place during chemiosmosis. with 28ATPs produced.

In absence of oxygen, anaerobic respiration of skeletal muscles produced ATPs from glycolysis, heat and 2C<u>02 as products, but not as by-product</u>.Through alcoholic fermentation pathway.

Therefore ,the correct answer is Aerobic respiration, because it gives out C02 which is a by-product, released out of the body as waste from the lungs,and not use up in the body.
