Interpretation:

Caffeine is more effective as an aid to a runner in a 10K race or in a 1 -mile race is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Anabolism and catabolism are the two pathways of metabolism. In anabolic pathway, large molecules are formed by the combination of small molecules. Anabolism is totally opposite to that of catabolism process. On the other hand, the catabolic pathways involve the breakdown of large molecules into smaller molecules.

Caffeine is a stimulant that is taken by many people in the form of coffee, tea, chocolate, and cola beverages. It is used by many athletes. Caffeine has many effects like providing energy in a long race as it stimulates lipases and glycogen phosphorylase.
