  • What is the main focus of the video on exercise and the human body?
    How exercise affects cellular respiration
  • Why does exercise require more cellular respiration?
    Muscles need more energy for movement
  • What do muscular contractions require for energy?
    Energy from respiration
  • What must increase to supply more oxygen to muscles during exercise?
    The rate and volume of breathing
  • What is a downside of increased breathing during exercise?
    It requires more energy to move lung muscles
  • What happens to heart rate during exercise?
    Heart rate increases to pump oxygen faster
  • What is the purpose of increased effort during exercise?
    To supply enough oxygen for aerobic respiration
  • When does the body switch to anaerobic respiration?
    When there is insufficient 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?
