- Endurance athletes exert a massive amount of physical stress on their bodies during a race. During a race, energy substrates are depleted to which their metabolism should adapt. After such a race, they must recover back to normal before attempting to exercise for the next race. It is extremely important that they recover as quickly as possible to maximize exercise between races.

- Please mark my multiple choice paper: Mark the INCORRECT alternative concerning the Introduction to Biochemistry: B) To learn the main chemical elements of the human body. To learn only the structures of atoms, but not of ions and molecules. To learn the properties of acids, bases and mineral salts and inorganic and organic salts. To learn the constituent units and functions of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. 2. Concerning the Chemical bonds. Choose the INCORRECT alternative: C) The forces that hold together the atoms of a molecule or a compound are Chemical bonds. The likelihood that an atom will form a chemical bond with another atom depends on the number of electrons in its outermost shell, also called the valence shell. An atom with a valence shell holding eight electrons is chemically stable, which means it is likely to form Chemical bonds with other atoms. All the previous alternatives are incorrect. 3.
