Lactic Acid
Main Ideas:
-Found in people and animals
-Produced in the muscle cells during extreme fatigue
-Builds up in muscle cells causing temporary muscle fatigue
While researching about lactic acid i learned it is not just found in people but also animals. Also i learned that this is an anaerobic process which means it has no oxygen. I already knew about lactic acid because i run and my coach would talk about, i didn't fully understand it until i did research and learned about it. I liked learning about this objective because it was something i could really relate to and i thought it was interesting. I think lactic acid can be applied outside of biology when you play sports. For the most part any sport you play you will do conditioning or hard exercises. You would learn how lactic acids affects your body and how to continue what your doing while having lactic acid.

Thats really cool how you can train your muscle cells to basically fatigue itself, I didn't know that was possible.
ReplyDeleteAt what point does lactic acid start to be produced by the body and does this time differ from person to person? Great blog. - James Voos

DeleteLactic acid is naturally present in the body and it starts to build up when the body cant produce oxygen for ATP. Sense it is present in your body it is not produced at different times.
DeleteClose, the body will start producing lactic acid once standard aerobic cellular respiration is no longer enough to provide the required ATP needed for the activity.

DeleteThats cool. I didn't know lactic Acid builds up in the muscle cell and causing temporary muscle fatigue. Thats' interesting.
ReplyDeleteI did not know you could fatigue your muscle, That is very interesting and something I want to learn more about!
