In case of repeated contraction, muscle cells regenerate NAD⁺ by converting pyruvate to _____________

In case of repeated contraction, muscle cells regenerate NAD⁺ by converting pyruvate to _____________ Correct Answer lactate

In case of repeated contraction, the oxygen levels drop down and make it difficult to keep up with the cell’s metabolic demands. Under these conditions, skeletal muscle cells regenerate NAD⁺ by converting pyruvate to lactate.
