← Nature & AnimalsWhich mechanism assists cheetahs in sustaining high-speed pursuit?
A)Cyclical limb muscle fiber recruitment✓
B)Decreased body temperature set point
C)Enhanced lactate fermentation pathways
D)Elevated red blood cell concentration
💡 Explanation
Cyclical limb muscle fiber recruitment allows sustained energy output during pursuit, because different muscle fibers activate sequentially preventing fatigue, therefore cheetahs maintain high speeds rather than rapidly decelerating, a consequence from constant muscle fiber activation.
