How would our interaction with the suns energy differ if our magnetosphere disappeared?​
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Enveloping our planet and protecting us from the fury of the Sun is a giant bubble of magnetism called the magnetosphere. It deflects most of the solar material sweeping towards us from our star at 1 million miles per hour or more. Without the magnetosphere, the relentless action of these solar particles could strip the Earth of its protective layers, which shield us from the Sun’s ultraviolet radiation. It’s clear that this magnetic bubble was key to helping Earth develop into a habitable planet.

Describe a situation that could cause lactic acid to build up in human muscle cells?
BartSMP [9]

Anaerobic exercise is one situation that would cause a buildup of lactic acid in human muscle cells. As the cells switched over from aerobic respiration to fermentation in order to produce ATP, lactic acid would be produced in relatively large quantities as a byproduct. This allows NADH and FADH2 electron carriers to be oxidized without the electron transport chain and would allow Glycolysis to continue.
