What advantage does the Cori cycle provide to an
exercising individual?

A. It can provide energy when lactate accumulates, without the
use of oxygen.

B. The Cori cycle provides greater energy utilization.

C. It allows lactate to enter gluconeogenesis to be re-used for
energy.

D. It allows the muscle to avoid simultaneously engaging in
the reciprocal pathways of glycolysis and glucoenogenesis. (This is
the one I thought it would be because lactate is transported to the
liver to undergo gluconeogenesis in the liver)

E. It recycles NAD⁺ to allow glycolysis to continue
when the electron transport chain cannot recycle NAD+ quickly
enough for exercising cells.
