Answer:

A switch from aerobic respiration to anaerobic respiration help a zebra that is being chased by a lion by providing enough oxygen to the zebra while running.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Usually organisms including zebra uses an aerobic respiration process in normal day to day life.
  • But for the specific task like, working heavily needs more oxygen than usual.
  • The heart works at highest possible rate to pump blood but even if in this situation, oxygen is not enough then our body accumulates the anaerobic respiration process.
  • So while escaping, zebra switches to anaerobic respiration to get enough oxygen for his running.
