Document Summary
Unit 3 study questions: many times endurance athletes will find that near the end of a long distance run they feel better (less exhausted) if they take a couple of quick deep breaths. The simple answer: no: lungs cannot get any bigger once the inside chest size quits increasing. They claim that this helps them to recover faster. Since the sprint did not metabolically require oxygen, explain why the athlete thinks he"s recovering faster: perception of effort is tied to breathing rate. Mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure are calculated as follows: pulse pressure = sbp dbp; map = dbp + 1/3(sbp-dbp). If the question had asked about the average male and female, you could assume that the male would be working harder. Explain why an increase in dbp while exercising is dangerous. Increase dbp indicates that the cv system is not responding well: afterload (dbp) increase causes stroke volume to decrease and hr to increase (to maintain desired.
