Q

What effects do working muscles have on the local environments

A

Local Po2 falls, local Pco2 increases, local H+ concentration rises (pH falls) and muscle temperature rises

16
Q

To meet the metabolic demands of skeletal muscle there is

A

A large drop in TPR brought about by vasodilation of arterioles supplying the working muscle

17
Q

What effect does decreased TPR have on diastolic pressure

A

It causes diastolic pressure to drop

18
Q

What is produced in severe exercise

A

Lactic acid

19
Q

What are the values for ventilation, VO2 and VCO2 at rest

A

Ventilation - ~6l/min
VO2 - ~0.25l/min
VCO2 - ~0.20l/min

20
Q

What are the values for ventilation, VO2 and VCO2 during exercise

A

Ventilation - ~120l/min
VO2 - ~3.5l/min (5 in trained athletes)
VCO2 - 4+

21
Q

What does H+ stimulate and what does this cause

A

H+ stimulates peripheral chemoreceptors and ventilation is excessively stimulated

22
Q

What is the O2 deficit

A

The difference between the oxygen uptake of the body during early stages of exercise and during a similar duration of steady state of exercise

23
Q

What is the O2 debt

A

The amount of extra oxygen required by muscle tissue to oxidise lactic acid and replenish depleted ATP and phosphocreatine following vigorous exercise

24
Q

What factors may increase ventilation during exercise

A

Reflexes originating from body movements, increased body temeperature, adrenaline being released and impulses from the cerebral cortex

25
Q

What is a predictor of a persons work capacity

A

The determination of maximal O2 consumption

26
Q

How can VO2 max be determined

A

Through exercise on a bike/treadmill where the workload is progressively increased until exhaustion and the expired air is collected during the last minutes and the %O2, %CO2 and volume of air are measured

27
Q

What effect does regular exercise have on VO2 max

A

It will improve it

28
Q

What classifications of a persons V02 max are there

A

Low, fair, average, good or excellent

29
Q

During exercise what does the increase in surface area for gas exchange allow

A

An enhance rate of gas transfer

30
Q

What do increased CO and an increased pulmonary BP do

A

They force open previously closed capillaries
