Question
Chapter 7, Problem 10TY
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Under normal conditions, pyruvate undergoes further oxidation for yielding energy, but when the conditions in muscles become anaerobic due to a lot of strenuous activity, oxidation of pyruvate does not occur. Instead, pyruvate is converted to lactate by lactate dehydrogenase enzyme.

- During strenuous exercise, the NADH formed in the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase reaction in skeletal muscle must be reoxidized to NAD+ if glycolysis is to continue. The most important reaction involved in the reoxidation of NADH is: a. dihydroxyacetone phosphate → glycerol 3-phosphate b. glucose 6-phosphate → fructose 6-phosphate c. isocitrate → α-ketoglutarate d. oxaloacetate → malate e. pyruvate → lactatearrow_forwardFast-twitch muscle fibers have fewer mitochondria and less myoglobin to store oxygen than slow-twitch muscle fibers. Use this information to predict how energy production differs in these two types of muscle fibers. Fast-twitch fibers rely primarily on aerobic respiration whereas slow- twitch fibers rely on anaerobic respiration. Slow-twitch fibers are able to produce more ATP per glucose molecule than fast-twitch fibers. You would expect to find more lactic acid build-up in slow-twitch fibers rather than fast-twitch fibers.
