Q

Gassiest exchange

A

During gas exchange oxygen moves from the lungs to the bloodstream at the same time carbon dioxide passes from the blood to the lungs. This happens in the lungs between the alveoli and the network of tiny blood vessels called capillaries which are located in the walls of the alveoli. Due to the high pressure the oxygen moves into low pressure. The high concentration of CO2 occurs with pressure.

Q

Lung volume

A

The capacity of lungs/the air they can hold. The greater the volume the more air.

16
Q

What happens to your title volume during exercise

A

When exercising your tidal volume increases and your inspiratory reserve volume become smaller as no space for lung capacity to take in.

17
Q

Diastole

A

Relaxation phase where the heart ventricles relax and the heart fills with blood. 80/lower blood pressure

18
Q

Systole

A

Contraction phase/ventricles contract. 120/higher blood pressure

19
Q

Artery definition

A

Carries blood away from the heart/oxygenated blood

20
Q

Vein definition

A

Carries blood to the heart from the body/deoxygenated

21
Q

Capillaries definition

A

Allows diffusion of gases and nutrients

22
Q

Features of an artery

A

Thick muscular small lumen wall
To a standard blood flow at a high pressure

23
Q

Features of a vein

A

Thinner large lumen wall
Contains valves to prevent the back flow of blood

24
Q

Features of a capillary

A

Very thin one cell thick lumen wall. This allows blood to pass through one cell at a time
Walls are semipermeable membrane to allow transport of gases and nutrients

25
Blood shunting
Body automatically takes blood away from the digestive system and other organs and directs to the working muscles in need of oxygen
26
How to get rid of waste products of lactic acid and CO2
Stretch cooling down drinking water
27
Anaerobic exercise
Exercise without oxygen provide an action that needs to be repaid with oxygen EPOC80-90% heart rate
28
Aerobic
Exercise which uses oxygen 60-80%
29
EPOC
post exercise oxygen debt During strenuous exercise the body works anaerobically and produces waste products of lactic acid. Once a performer has finished exercise they still breathe heavily to repay the oxygen back to the body.
30
Short-term effects of exercise
Heart rate increases Increase in breathing rate/tidal volume/ stroke volume Body temperature increase Increase in cardiac output
31
Vasodilation
Enlargement of capillaries/more blood flow/relaxation of capillary walls/heat loss across epidermis
32
Vasco constriction
Contraction of blood vessels/reducing blood flow at rest when it’s cold
33
Bradycardia
Lowering resting heart rate due to long-term exercise
34
Hyper trophy
Increase in muscle size is a long-term exercise
35
Order of inspiration and expiration
Nose/mouth Trachea Bronchi Bronchioles Alveoli
36
Cardiac output
Quantity of blood pumped by the heart in a given period of time typically measured in litres per minute
37
Calculation of the cardiac output
Cardiac output equals heart rate times by stroke volume Q=HRxSV
38
Long term affects of exercise
Capillarisation of the lungs and muscles Decrease in resting heart rate Muscle hyper trophy
