Q

Explain oxygen debt

A

Q

Explain the recovery process

Q

Describe the way the heart works

A
  1. Blood enters the right atrium
  2. The right atrium pumps blood into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve
  3. The right ventricle pumps the blood through the pulmonary artery to the lungs where oxygen is picked up and CO2 is deposited
  4. The oxygenated blood returns to the left atrium through the pulmonary vein
  5. The left atrium pumps the blood into the left ventricle and the blood then leaves here through the aorta to go to the res of the body
