Cards (18)

  • What is the main focus of the video?
    How exercise affects the human body
  • Why do our bodies need to carry out more respiration during exercise?
    To provide energy for muscle movement
  • What does muscular contraction require?
    A lot of energy from respiration
  • What must increase to supply more oxygen to muscles during exercise?
    The rate and volume of breathing
  • What is the downside of increased breathing during exercise?
    It requires more energy to move lung muscles
  • What happens to heart rate during exercise?
    It increases to pump oxygen quickly
  • What is the purpose of increased effort during exercise?
    To supply enough oxygen for aerobic respiration
  • When does the body start using anaerobic respiration?
    When there isn't enough oxygen during intense exercise
  • What is a major drawback of anaerobic respiration?
    It produces lactic acid
  • What sensation does lactic acid buildup cause?
    A burning sensation in muscles
  • What must the body do after exercise regarding lactic acid?
    React it with oxygen to remove it
  • What is the term for the oxygen needed to remove lactic acid?
    Oxygen debt
  • What happens to lactic acid in the liver?
    It reacts with oxygen to form glucose
  • What are the two main measurements to investigate exercise effects on the body?
    • Breathing rate
    • Heart rate
  • How do you measure breathing rate?
    Count chest rises and falls in one minute
  • How do you measure heart rate?
    By measuring the pulse at an artery
  • What type of questions might be asked about exercise effects?
    Measuring changes before and after exercise
  • What happens to breathing and heart rates during exercise?
    • Breathing rate increases
    • Heart rate increases
