Q

Where and how much blood goes to body?

A

80% is supplied to muscles

20%- organs (mainly brain as it needs to control muscle actions that are being produced)

Q

What is the role of the sympathetic nervous system?

A

Increases the sympathetic nerve information, vasoconstrictor arterioles to organs to reduce the amount of blood going to them and vasodilation to the muscles to receive more blood during exercise

Q

What is venous return?

A

Basically veins that carry blood back to the heart, during exercise venous return is massive.

Q

What is the disadvantage of venous return?

A

Gravity always tries to pull blood down, this is why pocket valves are in use to reduce this from happening.

Q

What is the muscle pump mechanism?

A

During rest, veins travel in between muscle groups, when muscle is relaxed vein is open and blood will collect.
During exercise- when muscles contract, muscles bulge out and squeeze the vein which will squeeze the blood back to the heart

Q

What is blood poling?

A

VR requires a force to push blood back to the heart, if no pressure blood will sit in pocket valves (heavy legs) Good for cool down

Q

How is Sv increased?

A

During exercise theres a greater q because the athlete requires more blood and oxygen to be required to the muscles, increase In blood helps to remove lactic acid etc. Heart beats faster during exercise so more waste products get out of body.

Q

What happens during diastole?

A

Heart relaxes, fills with blood. Blood pressure decreases.

23
Q

What happens during systole?

A

Heart pushes blood around the body during systole and pressure increases

24
Q

What is SV?

A

The volume of blood pumped out of the heart per beat

25
Q

What is Hr?

A

The number of beats per minute

26
Q

What is starlings law?

A

Venous return increases, End of volume of diastole increases, stretch increases, recoil increases, force increases and sv increases= Q

27
Q

What is determined by VR

A

SV (starlings ;aw)

28
Q

What is the equation that links q, hr and sv

A

Q= HR X SV

29
Q

What does the sympathetic nervous system do?

A

Increases HR and force of contraction, stimulates SA node to increase HR and SV which means and increase Iin Q

30
Q

What does the parasympathetic nervous system do?

A

Vagus stimulates the SA node, to reduce HR and SV which decreases Q

31
Q

What side is does

A

right

32
Q

what side is ox

A

left

33
Q

Whats the job of the atria?

A

Where the blood enters

34
Q

what is the job of the ventricles

A

where the blood exits

35
Q

What is the route of the blood

A

Superior vena cava- inf VC- deox enters RA- Through tricuspid valve into RV- Deox pumped through pul arteries- lungs (semi lunar prevents blood entering the heart)- Blood is oxygenated at the lungs- Oxgenated blood returns back to the heart through pul veins- ox enters L Chamber- Bicuspid valve into LV- ox blood passed through aorta into muscles and organs

36
Q

What are the properties of arteries?

A

Thick muscular walls, bp is high

37
Q

what is the vascular shunt?

A

Redistribution of Q during exercise.

VCC controls the vascular shunt

38
Q

What are arterioles?

A

Arteries that carry ox blood to muscles and organs with a middle layer that can vaso constrict, vaso dilate

39
Q

What is the respiratory pump?

A

Breathing increases during exercise Pressure changes in thorax and abdomen, squeezes large veins back to the heart

40
Q

what is smooth muscle?

A

Contraction/relaxation of smooth muscle in middle layer of vein walls help push blood through veins towards the heart.

41
Q

What is vR?

A

The transport of blood from the capillaries through the venues, veins back tot he ra of the heart

42
Q

At rest how is VR maintained?

A

Maintained by blood pressure and structure of veins

43
Q

During excise how is VR maintained?

A

Pressure of blood in veins is too low to maintain VR, sv and q decreases. Body needs support to pus blood against gravity through veins- increase vr and sv (5 mechanism)

44
Q

What is the resting sv?

A

70ml

45
Q

What is the anticipatory rise during intensities?

A

Body prepares to be active- oxygen is available for working muscles

46
Q

What is the plateau during the intensity fo workout graph?

A

Hr matches oxygen demands of muscles

47
Q

What is the after exercise graph and why plateau decreases>

A

Waste products are removed, oxygen debt is repaid from beginning

48
Q

Why is a large venous return needed fro high intensity exercise?

A

Stroke volume increases if venous return increases an increase in venous return means the ventricles stretch further before contracting forcing more blood out of heart- starlings law

48
Q

Why is a large venous return needed fro high intensity exercise?

A

Stroke volume increases if venous return increases an increase in venous return means the ventricles stretch further before contracting forcing more blood out of heart- starlings law

49
Q

What do the pre capillary sphincters control?

A

Blood flowing to the capillaries, they are smooth muscle surrounding the intersection between the capillaries and arterioles

50
Q

What are the neural factors for heart rate?

A

Baro- blood
Prop-muscle
Them- acidity

51
Q

What are the hormonal factors of heart rate?

A

Adrenaline- increases hr by stimulating adrengeic receptors and sa node
Noradrenaline- Released in stressful situations to increases hr and prepare body

52
Q

What are the intisinc factors of heart rate?

A

Temperature, increasing temperature increase heart rate to increase blood flow to skin where heat is lost

53
Q

How is athletes blood redistributed before exercise?

A

anticipatory rise, working muscles store up oxygen- venous return muscle pump, sympathetic
