Exercise Science- 03 Flashcards
Parts of the Cardiorespiratory system
- The heart
- The blood vessels
- The respiratory system
Pulmonary circulation
Right-side pumping de-oxygenated blood to lungs
(Think right side respiratory)
Blood from body–> Right side of heart–> lungs
systemic circulation
left side pumps oxygenated blood from lungs through left side to the body
(think left side limbs)
Blood from Lungs–> Left side of heart –> body
What is blood pressure
blood pressure is the ratio of the pressure on the blood vessels when the heart is contracting (Systole) over the blood vessels when the heart is relaxed (Diastole) SYSTOL/DIASTOL
What are Veins
carries blood from the body to the heart
what are arteries
carries blood away from heart to body
Respiratory system function
supply body with oxygen and carries off carbon dioxide
Cardiorespiratory during exercise
- Demands on the cardiorespiratory system increase
- More oxygen is obtained
- More waste products are eliminated
three energy containing nutrients in food
Carbohydrates
Protein
Fats
What is ATP
Energy currency of the call. The base unit of energy
Three energy systems
Oxidative
Non oxidative
Immediate
Oxidative
aerobic (uses oxygen) system that provides energy for activities longer than 2 min
Non-Oxidative
anaerobic (does not use oxygen) system that provides energy for activities between 10 seconds and 2 min
Immediate
Phosphocreatine system that provides energy for activities lasting 10 seconds
True or false. The body typically uses all three energy systems during exercise
True
True or False. The intensity and duration of the activity does not determine which system
predominates
False
