10) Which of the following describes a metabolic consequence of a shortage of oxygen in muscle cells?
о
(A) An increase in blood pH due to the accumulation of lactic acid
O
(B) NO ATP production due to the absence of substrate-level phosphorylation
о
(C) A buildup of lactic acid in the muscle tissue due to fermentation
O (D) A decrease in the oxidation of fatty acids due to a shortage of ATP

The statement 'a buildup of lactic acid in the muscle tissue due to fermentation' describes a metabolic consequence of a shortage of oxygen in muscle cells (Option C).

In conclusion, the statement 'a buildup of lactic acid in the muscle tissue due to fermentation' describes a metabolic consequence of a shortage of oxygen in muscle cells (Option C).

The correct answer is - C) a buildup of lactic acid in the muscle tissue due to fermentation.

Explanation:

In absence of enough oxygen for the muscle cells to perform the aerobic pathway to breakdown pyruvate for energy, the body starts producing lactic acid to convert glucose into energy.

This process is known as fermentation which can produce lactic acid and build it in muscle cells. There are some negative effects of fermentation and buildup of lactic acid in muscle cells such as cramps, pain, and fatigue in the muscles.

from almost the creation of the first true maps of the earth, people started seeing how continents would be able to fit together.   in particular, people noticed that south america fits almost exactly into africa.

you should be aware that while world maps were around early in the 1600’s and better defined by the end of the 1700’s, those maps were not ‘public’ but were treated as state secrets.   and so it was not till much later that the broader ‘science’ community had access to good quality and accurate world maps.

get the whole story here…

it is now known that most of the major continental masses can be fit together in a jigsaw process.   in fact we now know that the continents were indeed once all joined together as one land mass – the supercontinent of pangaea.

if you look at most world maps you will ponder how this is evidence, as the continents really don’t appear to ‘fit’ together very well.   what you need to understand is that the vast majority of maps are drawn using a map projection that has the north and south poles (which are points) are a line the width of the map at the top and bottom.   this means that the map distorts the true shape of the earth’s land and oceans as you love closer to the poles.     some other map projections distort less, but have the map shape looking like segments of an orange.   see here for a range of map projections.   check out the way greenland changes size in each!

what is more remarkable, is the next piece of evidence when added to the shape of continents.

location of mountains and fossils

what is remarkable, when you reassemble all the continents together, the ancient mountain ranges (many now eroded to their cores) and the location of rock types and fossils all match up.

answer and explanation;

volcanic rocks are igneous rocks which form from lava, molten rock which has been thrust out of a volcano onto the surface of a rocky body such as an asteroid, planet, or dwarf planet.  

plutonic rocks are igneous rocks which form from subterranean chambers of molten rock or magma. plutonic rocks make up the base of continental crust as well as oceanic crust. their slow rate of formation causes them to be coarse grained since there is plenty of time for large crystals to form before the magma solidifies into rock.

the textural difference is that plutonic rocks are more coarse grained than volcanic rocks. plutonic rocks are coarse grained while volcanic are fine grained ; glassey or fragmental. since fine and coarse are adjectives the decision as to whether a rock is fine or coarse grained is generally made on the bases of whether or not the individual crystals can be seen in most if the rock.
