higher/higher
effects of submax/max training on respiratory rate
lower/higher
effects of submax/max training on carbon dioxide production rate
lower/hiher
effects of submax/max training on oxygen uptake rate
slightly lower/higher
what does an increase in exercise intensity and workload lead to
increase in metabolism, CHO, decrease in fat
increase in FT, decrease in ST
what does an increase in metabolism, CHO and decrease in fat lead to
increase pyruvate to acetyl CoA
increase in Krebs cycle activity
what does an increase in pyruvate to acetyl CoA and Krebs cycle activity lead to
increase in CO2 production
responsibility of chemoreceptors
detect increase in CO2 and decrease in pH from lactate, which stimulate breakaway at anaerobic threshold
why do trained individuals have a lower tidal volume during submax exercise than untrained individuals
they have an increased ability for gas exchange with circulation
decreased sensitivity of chemoreceptors to respiratory stimulators
location of chemoreceptors
medulla oblongata
aortic arch
carotid bodies
what is the greather ability for gas exchange with circulation in trained individuals due to
greather capillarization
larger lung volumes
greater alveolar ventilation rate
greater blood volume and hemoglobin levels
calculation for inspired ventilation
VE = VT(depth) * F(frequency)
calculation for alveolar ventilation
VA = (VT(depth) - VD(dead space) * F(frequency)
partial pressure O2/CO2 in atmosphere
159/0.3
relation of partial pressure O2/CO2 as air moves through body
difference decrease
when air expired, more CO2 than O2
calculation of partial pressure O2
Pb(barometric pressure) * [O2]
barometric pressure * 20.93%
calculation of partial pressure CO2
Pb * [CO2]
Pb at sea leavel
760 mmHg
pulmonary diffusion
capillaries open around arounud alveoli -> increase in O2 diffusion
why does a trained person have a greate pulmonary diffusion capacity
more capillaries around alveoli
increase in size of alveoli
increase in blood volume and hemoblobin levels
what is the diffusion path affected by
alveolar membrane interstitial fluid capillary membrane plasma RBCs
what does oxygen in blood depend on
ventilation pulmonary diffusion capacity, characteristics of diffusion pathway diffusion gradient and diffusion time altitude charcteristics of blood
how is the biggest amount of oxygen transported through the body
carried by hemoglobin
oxygen extraction
arterial - venous oxygen difference
we do not extract all the oxygen available
how much hemoglobin is in 100ml of blood
15.4 gm
how much oxygen can 1 hemoblobin molecule carry
4 O2 molecules
how much O2 can one gram of hemoglobin carry
1.34 ml
why do females have a lower hemoglobin level
due to the menstrual cycle
what is responsible for the drop of Po2 and increase Pco2 when going from atmospheric air to in alveoli
dilution with residual gases in alveoli of lungs
Po2 and Pco2 in arterial and venous blood
arterial: 100/40
venous: 40/46
what causes a decrease in pulmonary diffusion capacity
smoking
not enough H2O drinking
membrane damages through diabetes
decrease in blood and RBC volume
what does hemoglobin consist of
4 heme groups attached to globin
what does the hemoglobin-oxygen dissociation curve descrive
how much oxygen is bound to hemoglobin for a given partial pressure of oxygen
realtionship between Po2 and hemoglobin saturation
the higher the partial pressure of oxgen is the greater the saturation of hemoglobin with oxygen
not linear, rather sigmoidal relationship
what causes sigmoidal relationship between Po2 and hemoglobin saturation
the allosteric nature of hemoglobin
what enhances oxygen availability
two-fold characteristic of hemoglobin
binding and release is cooperative
what does it mean when binding and release of oxygen from hemoglobin is cooperative
binding of oxygen to one heme enhances enahnces binding of oxygen to other heme - same with release
with what does hemoglobin oxygen dissociation curve work in conjunction with
diffusion gradient
two states of hemoglobin
oxyhemoglob
deoxyhemoglobin
oxyhemoglobin
relaxed state
hemoglobin is highly satured with oxygen
deoxyhemoglobin
taut state
oxygen has difficult time binding to heme group
what shifts the hb O2 dissociation curve to the right
decrease in pH
increase in partial pressure of carbon dioxide
temperature
2,3-DPG levels
how does the shift of the hb O2 dissociation curve to the right affect the loading of hemoglobin with oxygen in the lung capillaries and the unloading in the muscle tissue capillaries
lung capillaries: minimal effects
unloading of O2 at muscle tissue capillaries: significant increase due to reduction in affinity
what does the bohr effect describe
enhancing oxygen availability during exercise to tissue due to higher levels of Pco2 and hydrogen ions
decrease in pH
what does the haldane effect describe
high Po2 in alveoli increases release of CO2 and H+ from hemoglobin in the lungs
increases removal of CO2 and H+ from body
why is endurance performance worse at high altitude
due to lower Pb, Po2 is lower -> hemoglobin saturation is reduced
when does altitude have an effect on maximal oxygen uptake rate
above 1,500m
every extra 1000m -> VO2max decreases by 10%
what is one of the first major adaption to altitude after 48 hours
increase in 2,3-DPG levels -> increasing oxygen availability to tissue by 26-folds -> increasing endurance
calculation of cardiac output
Q = pressure gradient/resistance
or Q = SV * HR
what affects resistance
viscosity
length
vasodialation
what aids venous return flow
pressure head
muscle pump
intrathoracic pressure change
vasocontriction
systolic, mean, and diastolic pressure in the arteries, capillaries and veins
systolic starts at a little higher than 120 mmHg
mean at 100 mmHg
diastolic at 80 at a little higher than 80 mmHg
all 3 decrease to almost 0mmHg in veins
where do systolic, mean and diastolic pressure hit the same level
from arterioles to capillaries
what is the driving force of blood in circulatory system
mean blood pressure
how can cariac output be increase
by increasing pressure gradient and decreasing resistance
why does mean blood pressure tends to go up during exersice
due to an increase in systolic output
why does peripheral resistance with increasing exercise decrease
due to vasodialation of muscle tissue capillaries
why do untrained people have a greater cardiac output during submax exercise
greater SV and HR necessary to fullfil O2 demand
who has a greater maximal cardiac output
trained person
fick equation
VO2 = Q * O2 extraction rate
