1 markDuring vigorous exercise, such as cycling uphill, lactic acid builds up in the muscles.
How is this lactic acid removed during recovery?
excretion of lactic acid by the kidneys
anaerobic respiration of lactic acid in the muscles
aerobic respiration of lactic acid in the liver
excretion of lactic acid by the lungs
