- AVO2-Diff
- In exercise, the PPO2 in the muscle decreases
- This is because more is used in repiration
- To release energy
- This is because more is used in repiration
- This increases the difference in PPO2 in muscles and blood
- Greater diffusion gradient
- More O2 diffuses from the red blood cells into the muscles
- Greater diffusion gradient
- What is the significance of the increase to an athlete in a game?
- More oxygen extraction by blood to the muscles
- Respire more, releasing more energy
- Run for longer
- Venous blood has less O2 so the is more diffusion at the lungs
- So more O2 is in the blood
- In exercise, the PPO2 in the muscle decreases
