Q

chemoreceptors

A

sense chemical chnages
detect chnages in c02
excerise, increase in c02
c02 important in controlling Hr
when increase in concentration of c02, stimulates sympathetic nervous system to increase HR

Q

baroreceptors

A

detect changes in blood pressure
choose set point
any increase or decrease from set point, causes signal to be sent to medulla
increase in arterial pressure, increase in stretch of baroreceptors, reduction in HR

Q

heart disease

A

caused by smoking, low cholesterol levels, lack in exercise
coronary arteries supply oxygenated blood to the heart
coronary arteries become blocked up or narrowed by fatty deposits (atheroma)
process called atherosclerosis
arteries become less able to deliver as much oxygen to heart -causes pain agina
if one of the fatty deposits falls off it causes a blood clot which can cut off supply to heart causing heart attacks

Q

cardiovascular drift

A

heart rate should stay same during steady state of exercise

instead slowly climbs-cardiovascular drift

decrease in pressure and SV but increase in HR

when environment is warm

caused by sweat, when we sweat some of lost fluid comes from plasma volume
decrease in plasma, reduces venous return and stroke volume

HR increases to maintain higher cardiac output to create more energy to cool body down

33
Q

transportation of oxygen

A

cappileries-oxygen diffuses into capillaries, 3% diffuses into plasma 97% combines with oxygen forming oxygenhamolgobin

tissues-oxygen is then released from haemologbin called oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve

muscles-oxygen is stored by myglobin
higher affinity for oxygen and will store it for mitochondria to then use for the muscles

34
Q

why does our stroke volume reduce in cardiovascular drift

A

dehydration

35
Q

sympathetic control of breathing

increase in breathing rate

medulla obllagata-RCC (respiratory control centre)

36
Q

vasocualr shunt mechanism

Q

what measures volume of air

A

spirometer

50
Q

gaseous exchange

A

getting oxygen from air into lungs so can diffuse in blood and transport to cells of the body

getting rid of carbon dioxide from blood

51
Q

gaseous exchange at the alveoli

A

partial pressure of oxygen in alveloi is higher then partial pressure of oxygen in the capillary

52
Q

what is the difference in partial pressure referred to as

A

concentration/diffusion gradient

53
Q

what happens to oxygen in alveoli during gaseous exchange

A

oxygen will diffuse into blood from alveloi until pressure is equal in both

54
Q

what happens to co2 during gaseous exchange

A

partial pressure of c02 is higher in the cappileries then the alveloi

the oxygen will diffuse into the alveoli from the blood until pressure is equal

55
Q

gaseous exchange at muscles

A
56
Q

smoking

A

negative impact on respiratory system
causes irritation of trachea and bronchi
reduced lung function
increases breathlessness
causes swelling and narrowing of lung airways
damaged cells lining the trachea
causes damage to cilia (tiny hairs which help remove mucus out of lungs)

57
Q

types of muscle fibres

A

type 1 (slow oxidative)
type 2a (fast oxidative glycotic)
type 2x (fast glycotic)

58
Q

slow oxidative fibres (type 1)

quick contraction speed

used for high intensities

produce energy ananerobically e.g sprint

60

muscle fibres

A

grouped into motor units

67
Q

motor unit

A

consists of muscle fibres and motor neurone

68
Q

neuromuscular junction

A

where motor neurone and muscle fibre meet

69
Q

motor units, motor nuerons and muscle fibres

A

motor unit consists of muscle fibres and motor neurons

when muscle fibres and motor units meet=neuromuscular junction

fine movements=motor units with only few fibres

gross movement=feed of 100s of fibres

70
Q

slow twitch motor units

A

recruited for lower intensity exercises e.g jogging

fast twitch fibres recruited for higher intensity exercises e.g sprint

71
Q

how to increase strength of contraction

A

wave summation

spatial summation

72
Q

wave summation

A

repeated activation of a motor neurone stimulating a given muscle fibre resulting in greater force of contraction

each time nerve impulse reaches muscle cell, calcium is released

repeated nerve impulses with no time to relax, calcium built up creating smooth contraction-tetanic contraction

73
Q

spatial summation

A

impulses received at same time at different places on the neurone
add up fire to neurone

recruitment of additional bigger motor units within muscle to develop more force

74
Q

omggg (proprioreceptors neuromuscular facilitation

A

type of advanced stretching

muscle spindles and golgi tendon organs

75
Q

what are the two proprioreceptors for PNF

A

muscle spindles and golgi tendon organs

76
Q

muscle spindles

A

stretch receptors

detect how far and fast a muscle is being stretched
send signal for muscle to contract, stretch reflex preventing overstretching

77
Q

golgi tendon organs

A

detect tension in muscle

when muscle contracts isometricallg in pnf, sense increase in tension and send signals for muscle to relax

known as autogenic inhibition

78
Q

steps of PNF

A
  1. performer performs passive stretch with help of partner
    stretch detected by muscle spindles. if muscle stretched too far, stretch reflex occurs
  2. individual isometricallg contracts muscle for at least 10 secs
    pushing leg against partner
    golgi tendon organs then activated
    send signals with override signals of muscle spindles, delaying the stretch reflex
  3. meg stretches up, golgi tendon organs responsible for muscle relaxing which means leg stretches further
