Exercise begins with skeletal muscle contraction, an active process that requires adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for energy. A small amount of ATP is present in the muscle when contraction begins. This ATP can be used and replenished to fuel about 15 seconds of intense exercise, after which point the muscle must generate more ATP through the process of cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, oxygen is used up when it combines with hydrogen to form water (oxidative phosphorylation). Thus, as a muscle's metabolism increases during exercise, the concentration of oxygen in the tissue decreases, while temperature, acid, and CO2 increase. These factors and the homeostatic sensors that detect them send out signals that result in local vasodilation, which shunts bloodflow from inactive tissues to the exercising muscles, where it is needed.

Archeologists have discovered three sites showing conclusive evidence for the mastery of fire in tanzania, from a period slightly after the time that homo habilis was present in africa. these sites clearly were founded by homo erectus, the descendent species of homo habilis that migrated north, out of africa and into asia. homo erectus was known to have mastered fire, from ample evidence at sites in asia. there is no reason to attribute mastery of fire to homo ergaster, the descendent species of homo habilis that remained in africa.which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends? (a) before their migration, homo erectus occupied african territory as far south as tanzania.(b) the strain of migration provided the selective pressure motivating homo erectus‘ mastery of fire.(c) homo ergaster would not have derived as much benefit from the mastery of fire as did homo erectus.(d) homo ergaster inherited all cultural knowledge from homo habilis, a species that did not have mastery of fire.(e) homo ergaster did not occupy regions as far south as tanzania until well after the time of these three sites.
