It is being said that our bodies cannot produce lactic acid but rather lactate and it's the metabolite summation of ATP, hydrogen, and lactate that cause the burn. But I was taught that lactic acid does not cause muscle burning sensation but instead its the increase in proton concentration that creates an acidic environment but since lactate is the component measured in the blood and blood is strictly a weak base and lactic acid is the corresponding acid and uses muscles as an energy it can help reduce the acidity. So I'm just confused and would like some clarification if our bodies do have lactic acid and what causes the burning sensation in our muscles when getting a pump

A medical student was studying the effect of glucose oxidase on glucose and fructose metabolism. He noticed the affect only with the glucose and no effect with fructose. Which ONE of the following property would explain his Indings? DStereo or optical specificity OBond specificity OAbsolute specificity OReaction specificity Group specificity
One of the catalytic reactions that enzymes can perform is the transfer of phosphate groups from ATP to another substrate. THe first step is the nucleophilic attack of the tertiary phosphate of ATP by the hydroxyl group on SERINE- draw this electrophilic attack.
It is often stated that the phosphate-phosphate bonds in ATP are "high energy," but in fact, they are not notably high in energy. Rather, they are easy to break, and the AG of hydrolysis is a "useful" quantity of energy. What makes the phosphate bonds easy to break? O They are close to the destabilizing nitrogenous base adenosine. O High alkalinity attacks bonds between phosphate groups. O Electrostatic repulsion of phosphate groups. Positive charges on amino groups repel each other. O High acidity attacks bonds between amino acids.
