What would happen if the mitochondria in a cell stopped working?

Biology
1 answer:
Virty [35]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

For our bodies the conversion from food energy to ATP happens in mitochondria. If your mitochondria are not working properly then you are less able to convert food into ATP. For cells that require a lot of ATP, for example your muscles, this is a problem and they may become weaker and get tired faster.

The first P-wave of an earthquake took 11 minutes to travel to a seismic station from the epicenter of the earthquake. What is t
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{5280 km; 25.5 min }}

Explanation:

1. Distance from epicentre

The average speed of P-waves is about 8 km/s.

(a) Convert minutes to seconds

\text{Time} = \text{11 min} \times \dfrac{\text{60 s}}{\text{1 min}} = \text{660 s}

(b) Calculate the distance

\text{Distance} = \text{ speed} \times \text{time} = \dfrac{\text{8 km}}{\text{1 s}} \times \text{660 s} = \textbf{5280 km}\\\\\text{The seismic station's distance to the epicentre is $\large \boxed{\textbf{5280 km}}$}

2. Time for S-wave

The average speed for an S-wave is about 3.45 km/s.

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Distance} & = & \text{speed} \times \text{time}\\\text{5280 km} & = & \dfrac{\text{3.45 km}}{\text{1 s}} \times \text{time}\\\\5280 \times \text{1 s} & = & 3.45 \times \text{time}\\\text{Time} & = & \dfrac{\text{5280 s}}{3.45}\\\\ & = & \text{1530 s}\\& = & \textbf{25.5 min}\\\end{array}\\\text{It took the first S-wave $\large \boxed{\textbf{25.5 min}}$ to arrive.}

When Lactate Builds Up In A Runner's Muscles, It Causes A Burning Sensation. What Causes This To Occur?
Fantom [35]

One of the most general forms of discomfort or pain one feels at the time of strenous work out is a burning sensation in the muscles or lungs, which goes away after some time, that is, after stopping the activity. This is a result of an accumulation of lactic acid.

Lactic acid is a by-product of the procedure the body goes through when it requires to generate energy more briskly that it does usually, like when one exercises.

The muscles functioning generally produce energy aerobically, that is, by using oxygen, however, when one push himself or herself at the time of workout and enough oxygen is not accessible, then these muscles start producing energy anaerobically, resulting in production of lactic acid as a by-product and ultimately causing burning sensation.
