Q

high blood pressure is known as what? low blood pressure is known as what?

A

HIgh bp- hypertension, low bp- hypotension

24
Q

what can cause low bp?

A

dehydration

25
_______ blood pressure is the amount of pressure experienced when the left ventricle contracts
systolic
26
________ blood pressure is the amount of pressure experienced when the left ventricle relaxes
diastolic
27
why do the lungs inflate?
change in the pressure of the the chest cavity created by the muscles
28
during intense activity, which muscles are included in the lungs inflating?
the diaphragm and abdominal muscles
29
T: deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart drop off its CO2 and waste products tot eh lungs
true
30
what happens to CO2 that reaches the lungs?
it is exhaled
31
T or F: blood that dropped of co2 and waste product to the lungs picks up 02 and goes toward the right side of the heart to be pumped to the tissues
false: left side of the hear
32
what is metabolism?
the transformation of food into energy soures through chemical processes
33
what are the macronutrients that act as energy sources?
carbohydrates, protein, and fat
34
carbohydrates as an energy source
easily accessible energy source,
35
when are carbohydrates needed as an energy source?
high intensity activities
36
what are excess carbohydrates stored as?
glycogen (if depleted) o body fat
37
fat as an energy source
makes food taste good while supplying energy
38
when is fat needed as an energy source?
needed for long duration activities and daily life
39
what is excess fat stored as?
body fat
40
protein as an energy source
provides amino acids to build structures in the body
41
when is protein used? what is the excess stored as?
used for growth and repair (rarely used for energy)/ excess is stored as body fat
42
what is the energy currency of the body? what does it stand for?
ATP (adenosine triposphate)
43
what is the goal of metabolic reactions?
to turn fuel sources into energy sources our cells can use
44
T or F: there is one pathway out body uses to transform fuel sources into atp
F; there are multiple pathways
45
when do we use our immediate energy pathway?
for 10 - 15 secs, ex: 100m sprint
46
when do we use our anaerobic (nonoxidative) energy pathway for?
15 secs - 3 mins, ex: 400m dash
47
when do we use out aerobic (oxidative0 energy pathway for?
any activity over 3 mins long, ex: 1 mile
48
what is the energy source for immediate energy system?
creatine phosphate +adp —-> atp
49
anaerobic (non oxidative) energy system
fuel: carbohydrates as glucose or glycogen - energy is readily available with this system but fuel supply is low and results in higher waste product
50
areobic oxidative energy system
- uses any fuel source (mostly fat and carbohydrates) - most common used energy system - supplies a large amount of ATp but cannot do it rapidly
51
T or F: the three energy systems wrk individually to provide fuel for a given activity
F: they all work together to produce fuel
52
fat burning zone (fact or fiction)
this is false( it’s better to measure how long you need to be working out for your body to be burning fat)when hr is 55-65% of max, then largest portion of calories are form fat (it’s true that a larger portion of your calories come from fat when you perform at a lower heart rate
53
what is cardiorespiratory fitness?
the ability t provide o2 to the muscles to support ATP production
54
as exercise intensity increases so does what?
02 consumption
55
VO2 max
an objective measure of CRP that measures the maximum amount of oxygen that can be consumed and utilized to perform exercises with large muscle groups
