Answer 26

Diff in O2 in blood btwn arteries and veins

Question 27

Oxygen States during Exercise

Answer 27

1. O2 Deficit
2. Steady State of O2 delivery: take times for body to adjust
3. EPOC: extra O2 needed to restore systems

Question 28

How does training prolong lactic threshold

Answer 28

• Increases VO2
• Improves ventilation
• Heart more effecient

Question 29

Breathing Mechanism

Answer 29

• Inhale: diaphragm contracts, cavity expands
• Exhale: diaphragm relaxes, cavity shrinks

Question 30

Ventilation

Answer 30

• Air moved by lungs in 1 min
• Tidal Vol: Vol of air for each breathe
• Resp Frequency: # of breaths taken per min
