What is the relationship between overexertion of muscles and the formation of lactic acid?

When muscles are overtaxed, the cardiovascular system can't supply enough oxygen to keep up with the needs of the tissue, and the muscle cells start fermentation to maintain a degree of energy production. The end product of the fermentation process (in this case) is lactic acid. (Pyruvate molecules are made from glucose - cf. glycolysis - but in the meantime, NAD+ coenzymes are reduced to NADH as a byproduct. In order for the process to continue, the NADH needs to revert to NAD+ and lose the hydrogen. The hydrogen is added onto pyruvate to form lactic acid).

Neuromuscular coordination in a human body?
it is the coordination between the nerves and the muscles. whenever we do anything like eating or breathing even there is a strong coordination between the muscles and the nerves.
What are two kinds of joints in the body?
the muscles between bones
How do tendons break?
Tendons are tough bands or strands of tissue that connect muscles and organs to the bones and to other muscles. They will strectch to a point, but if pulled too hard (by injury, stress, or overexertion), they can split apart. This is commonly seen in the voluntary muscles where stress is placed on the tendon without proper stretching beforehand, or where too much force is applied to one limb as when running, jumping, or lifting. In younger individuals, the less-developed muscle will often tear before the attached tendon. In older individuals, the blood supply to the tendon make become insufficient, causing it to weaken.
What is the difference between associate neuron and motor neuron?
motor neurons are linked to the muscles and obviously sends a message for muscles to move
What heart chamber hypertrophy due to overexertion?
Your heart chamber does not hypertrophy due to overexertion. Your muscles also do not develop due to overexertion. Both, your heart and muscles develop due to proper exercise.
Which problem of the muscular system results when muscles are stretched or partially torn from overexertion?
Muscle strain
What Is the Relationship between Bones And Muscles?
muscles help bones move or do anything
Which statement gives the relationship between bones and muscles when one starts running?
muscles move but bones do not
What is the relationship between your ability to do work with your muscles and anaerobic respiration?
ugh.
What is the relationship between your muscles andanaerobic respiration?
you use oxygen in your muscles to do work and anaerobic respiration uses oxygen.
What is another term for strain?
Strains are tears in the muscle. Sometimes called pulled muscles, they usually occur because of overexertion or improper lifting techniques.
Why does it hurt when you breathe out and not in?
Depends on the cause of the pain, but if the pain is from overexertion from intense physical activity, may be due to the muscles involved in respiration. The intercostal muscles between the ribs, and diaphragmatic muscles, both expand and are placed under greater stress during inhalation. Upon exhalation, the release of air allows these muscles to relax without effort, being usually a passive part of the breathing cycle.
Why are my buttocks muscles continually sore?
The muscles in the posterior can become sore due to overexertion. For instance, running or walking long distances can cause a great deal of soreness in the legs and buttocks.
What is the medical term meaning pertaining to the relationship between a nerve and a muscle?
The medical term is neuromuscular. This term refers to anything involving the relationship between nerves and muscles in the body.
What is the relationship between the muscular and respiratory systems?
The respiratory system carries oxygenated blood to muscles to allow them to function
Which type of anaerobic respiration occurs in animals during overexertion?
When muscles overexert, the available oxygen may run out and they resort to anaerobic metabolism creating lactic acid which is what causes the soreness felt after exercise.
