Question

How lactic acid is formed ?

Open in App
Solution

During intense exercise, there may not be enough oxygen available to complete the process, so a substance called lactate is made. Your body can convert this lactate to energy without using oxygen(Anerobic respiration)But this lactate or lactic acid can build up in your bloodstream faster than you can burn it
