RESPITORY SYSTEM Flashcards
name the lung volumes
tidal volume
vital capacity
residual volume
total lung volume
pulmonary ventilation
what is tidal volume
the total air inhaled/exhaled in one breath
what is vital capacity
maximum amount of air that can be inhaled after maximum inhalation
what is residual volume
the amount of air remaining in the lungs after a forced exhalation
what is total lung volume
maximum amount of air in the lungs after a maximum amount of inhalation
what is pulmonary ventilation
total amount of air inhaled/ exhaled per minute
what are the responses to exercise
(Respiratory)
increased breathing rate and increased tidal volume
adaptations to exercise
(Respiratory)
increased vital capacity
increased strength of the respiratory muscles
increase in oxygen and carbon dioxide diffusion rate
additional factors for the respiratory system
effects of exercise
asthma
