Why do muscles get tired after physical activity? (Biology)
A) A change in the concentration of potassium and sodium ions causes a malfunction of the sodium-potassium pump, which is used by cells to conduct nerve impulses. Muscles receive signals from the brain less well, and accordingly their contractility decreases.
B)The concentration of sodium ions in the cell increases, and the concentration of potassium ions outside the cell decreases, thereby killing the cells. It takes some time to restore the number of cells, and during this time the muscles become sore and tired
C) Due to lack of oxygen, anaerobic respiration occurs, which leads to the formation of lactic acid. Lactic acid leads to muscle breakdown
D) Muscles become torn and tired during training, leading to damage. This causes further muscle fatigue
A) A change in the concentration of potassium and sodium ions causes a malfunction of the sodium-potassium pump, which is used by cells to conduct nerve impulses. Muscles receive signals from the brain less well, and accordingly their contractility decreases.
