← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs as a chase predator's muscle glycogen depletes?
A)Reduced anaerobic glycolysis rate✓
B)Increased creatine phosphate regeneration
C)Enhanced oxygen binding affinity
D)Greater lactate dehydrogenase production
💡 Explanation
Lactic acid builds due to anaerobic glycolysis when oxygen is insufficent; therefore, glycogen depletion decreases glycolysis, because the substrate is exhausted. This outcome rather than maintaining pace results since oxygen debt increases with further glycogen hydrolysis, driving more lactate.
