Cardio And Respiratory Flashcards
Respiratory rate
Amount of breath taken per minute
Ventilation
Amount of air breathed in per minute
Equation for ventilation
Tidal volume x Respiratory rate = Ventilation
Lung capacity
Total volume of air your lungs could hold
Vital capacity
The amount of air that your actually able to expire
Residual volume
Amount of air left in the lungs after a conscious, maximal expiration
The air is made up of
Oxygen (21) Nitrogen (79) Carbon Dioxide (0.03)
What is the cardiovascular system responsible for

Transportation of wastes
Regulation of body temperatures
Fighting disease
Stroke volume
Amount of blood that is pumped in one beat
Heart rate
Amount of times your heart beats in a minute
Cardiac output
Amount of blood pumped per minute
Cardiac output equation
Stroke volume x heart beat = cardiac output
Tidal volume
The amount of air you breath in
