Document Summary

Lab 1: resting physiological measurements and pulmonary function. At rest, almost all of the body"s atp is produced via aerobic metabolism (oxidative phosphorylation) Measuring oxygen consumption (vo2) at rest is a way of measuring aerobic atp production otherwise known as the resting metabolic rate (rmr) Use indirect calorimetry to measure metabolic rate without having to measure heat produced by the individual. Pulmonary ventilation refers to the amount of gas moved into and out of the lungs and can be measured via a technique known as spirometry. Most commonly used tests from spirometer are forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second (fev1. 0) and fev1. 0/fvc ratio. These are referred to as dynamic lung volumes because they measure the rate of air ow. Results from these measure meets can help to identify respiratory abnormalities such as asthma or emphysema. Maximal voluntary ventilation is the maximal volume of air an individual can ventilate in 1 minute (mvv)
