Worked Solution & Example Answer:What is a common feature of both the alactic and lactic acid energy systems? (A) Lactic acid is produced - HSC - SSCE Personal Development and Physical Education - Question 18 - 2013 - Paper 1
Step 1
ATP is resynthesised anaerobically.
Answer
Both the alactic and lactic acid energy systems produce ATP without the need for oxygen, classifying them as anaerobic systems. This is a common feature as both systems are utilized during high-intensity activities where the demand for energy exceeds the available oxygen supply.
