Advantage of Lactic Acid Fermentation
During a short, intense sprint, muscle cells may temporarily rely on lactic acid fermentation. What is the primary advantage of this metabolic pathway?
AIt enables mitochondria to replicate more rapidly.
BIt yields a greater amount of ATP than aerobic respiration.
CIt produces the carbon dioxide required for the Krebs cycle.
DIt regenerates NAD⁺, allowing glycolysis to continue producing ATP.
