EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY: short term response to exercise Flashcards
what is heart rate?
the rate at which the heart beats
what is stroke volume?
the volume of blood pumped out of the ventricle per beat.
what is cardiac output?
the volume of blood pumped by the heart ventricle in 1 minute.
What is tidal volume?
what is respiratory frequency?
what is minute ventilation?
what is vascular shunting?
the redirection of blood which goes to the working muscle and the heart, as these need more oxygen then other organs.
what three factors effect how the body responded to exercise?
intensity
duration
frequency
what six ways does the body respond to exercise?
increase breathing rate and depth
increase blood pressure
redistribution of blood
increased cardiac output
increased stroke volume
increase heart rate
