When the swimmer is unable to take in enough oxygen for the sprint, the ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) will be compromised. In such conditions, the body will use anaerobic respiration to produce the ATP. Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. It used the electron acceptors in place of the oxygen in the respiratory cycle. The amount of the ATP produced is, however, less in anaerobic respiration.
Hence, the answer is 'Option C - Anaerobic respiration would be used to produce small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen'.
Answer:
By panting or breathing heavily.
Explanation:
<em>An ectothermic animal is one whose body temperature depends on the temperature of the external environment.</em>
The body of ectotherms regulates temperature depending on the temperature of the external environment where such animal finds itself.
Hence, when the temperature of the external environment rises as a result of hot air, the body of an ectotherm (that is homeothermic, that is, maintain a relatively constant body temperature irrespective of the temperature of the external environment) will adjust so as to keep its temperature relatively constant.
Dogs generally pant (breathe heavily) to bring their body temperature back to normal whenever it rises beyond normal due to rigorous physical activities or high external temperature.
<em>Hence, a fox will most likely pant in response to hot air temperature just like dogs.</em>
Answer:
The correct answer is option D. "whether the muscle moved the skeleton, the heart, or another type of internal organ".
Explanation:
It is possible to determine whether a sample of muscle tissue moved the skeleton, the heart, or another type of internal organ by analyzing its cellular structure and organization. For instance cardiac muscle is striated and organized into sarcomeres, while smooth muscle that is located in organs such as intestines, uterus and stomach are not organized into sarcomeres.
Answer:
The correct answer is the letter D. decreasing the moisture content of the air and increasing temperature
Explanation:
Fog is the result of air humidity, or water vapor in the atmosphere. The mist that forms in the morning is the result of water that changes from a gaseous to a liquid state. It is characterized by a cluster of water droplets, which give rise to a type of cloud that is very close to the Earth's surface arising from the cooling of the air during the night. Thus, it is formed by the suspension of water droplets in an air layer close to the ground. Thus, fog can be considered a cloud that comes into contact with the ground.
