What is the process of anaerobic respiration in humans?
Answers
Explanation:
All cells of the human body employ biochemical reactions known as cellular respiration to produce the energy they need to function and stay alive. The sugar glucose serves as the primary fuel for human cellular respiration. Cells can breakdown glucose to generate energy using oxygen dependent aerobic respiration or anaerobic respiration, which does not require oxygen. While aerobic respiration generates energy energy more efficiently, human muscle cells can utilise anaerobic respiration when they lack sufficient oxygen or require a quick burst of energy.
Anaerobic respiration in humans occurs primary in muscle cells during during high intensity exercise. This might occur if you are pushing your limits during an aerobic activity like spinning or cardio workout and the oxygen supplied to the muscles is insufficient to maintain aerobic only respiration. alAnaerobic respiration also occurs like the activities that you require short, intense burst of muscle power such as sprinting or power lifting.
