Anaerobic respiration by yeast – fermentation

The video explains why muscles feel stiff after exercise, focusing on the role of lactic acid. It begins with an experiment to demonstrate muscle fatigue and discusses the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration occurs when muscles lack oxygen, producing lactic acid, which causes pain and stiffness. The video explains the concept of oxygen debt and the need for oxygen to break down lactic acid in the liver. It concludes with the importance of warming down to prevent stiffness.
