Q

Oxygen in blood, what carries it, what is the amount of O_2 per gram of _____,

A

Oxygen is carried by hemoglobin in the blood.

Healthy blood has 1.39 Oxygen per gram of hemoglobin. 15g of hemoglobin per 100ml of blood. (20.8ml of Oxygen per 100ml of blood)

Q

Total Peripheral Resistence

A

The resistance of the entire systemic circulation

Vessels Constrict = High TPR

Vessels Dilate = Low TPR

Factors:
-Exercise
-Sympathetic NS
-Local Muscle Tissue Metabolism
-Environmental Stressors

Q

Circulation during exercise location and % in those locations.

A

During Heavy exercise our hearts pump 25 L/min vs 5 L/min during rest.

Our muscles gain a huge amount of blood with most other places maintaining the same amount spare our organs and bones.

Q

Cardiac Cycle

A

Diastole - Relaxation
-Heart fills w/ blood

Systole - Contraction
-Blood ejected during ventricular contraction
-Systolic blood pressure (SBP)

Q

Rate-Pressure Product (RPP)

A

Estimated work of heart.

Your Systolic blood pressure (SBP) * Heart Rate = RPP.

Q

Frank-Starling Principle

A

More LV stretch = more forceful contraction

Greater blood volume

17
Q

What are the structures of the Respiratory System

A

Nasal Cavities, Trachea, L & R Bronchi, Bronchioles, Aveoli

18
Q

Respiratory System: Inspiration

A

Sucking in air

Active Process

Muscles used:
-Diaphragm
-External Intercostal Muscles

Contraction of diaphragm lowers air pressure in lungs -> air moves in.

During Exercise: Internal intercostal muscles & abdominal muscles are involved in inhalation and exhalation.

19
Q

Respiratory System: Expiration

A

Exhale

Passive (at rest)

Diaphragm relaxes -> increased pressure -> air moves out.

During Exercise: Internal intercostal muscles & abdominal muscles are involved in inhalation and exhalation.

20
Q

Gas Exchange, Alveolus moving CO_2 & O_2

A

Upon inspired air coming in the Alveolus (air sacks) from the Trachea, oxygen will move into the veins move into the muscles, be converted into CO_2 then moved via Venous blood back to the Alveolus which will be sucked out open breathing out.

Note: The more CO_2 you intake your body gets better at processing Oxygen.

21
Q

Heart Circulation

A

Starts from trunk CO2, Begins from R atrium -> Right Ventricle CO_2ed -> Left & Right Lungs -> Left Atrium Oxygenated -> Left Ventricle -> Rest of body Oxygenated

22
Q

Oxygen Uptate (VO_2)

A

Amount of O_2 used by the tissues of the body.

VO_2 is related to the heart & circulatory system’s ability to transport O_2.

23
Q

VO_2 Fick Equation

A

VO_2 = Q * a-vO_2

24
Q

Maximal Oxygen Uptake

A

(VO_2max) is the highest amount of O_2 that can be used at the cellular level.

Average Resting Person: 3.5 ml/kg*min

Elite Endurance Athletes: 80 ml/kg*min

25
Q

Oxygen Extraction during exercise

A

Resting 20ml O / 100ml blood. Return 14ml O/100ml blood

High 20ml O/100ml blood. Return 4ml O/100ml blood.
