PE anatomy yr 11

?
Describe the pathway of air into the lungs
Mouth/ nasal cavity, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli
1 of 46
Mechanics of breathing inspiration
Rib cage= up and out, diaphragm= flattens and contracts, chest= bigger, lung= pressure less
2 of 46
Mechanics of breathing expiration
Rib cage= down and in, diaphragm= relaxes into dome shape, chest= in, lungs= pressure is higher
3 of 46
How are the alveoli adapted for gas exchange?
Thin walls, moist walls, good blood supply, well ventillated
4 of 46
How are red blood cells adapted to be able to carry oxygen to muscles ?
Contains haemoglobin which binds to oxygen in a reversible reaction to carry the oxygen to the blood
5 of 46
How does oxygen move into the blood and carbon dioxide out of the blood ?
By diffusion, from a high concentration to a low
6 of 46
Name the parts of the heart
From left to right, vena cava, aorta, pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein. Right and left atrium, right and left ventricle
7 of 46
Describe the pathway of the blood
De-oxygenated blood from vena cava enters the right atrium, ventricle then out of the pulmonary artery to the lungs where gas exchange occurs, pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood back into the heart, left atrium, ventricle then into aorta away
8 of 46
Difference of mechanics of breathing when exercising in inspiration
Sternocleoidomastoid and pectorials contracts increasing thoracic capacity
9 of 46
Why do the sternocleidomastid and pectorials contract during inhalation ?
To allow a greater volume of air into the lungs
10 of 46
Difference with the mechanics of breathing during exercise, expiration
Abdominal muscles contract to pull rib cage downwards
11 of 46
Why do the abs contract during exhalation?
To force maximum air out of the lungs
12 of 46
Define vasoconstriction
Narrowing of blood vessels
13 of 46
Why do blood vessels vasoconstrict
So that oxygen doesn’t diffuse unnecessarily somewhere else in the body eg. The digestive system
14 of 46
Define vasdialation
Widening of blood vessels
15 of 46
Why do blood vessels vasodialate
So that the blood vessels heading to the arms and legs muscles get more blood flow and therefore oxygen
16 of 46
Define stroke volume
The amount of blood ejected by the heart per beat
17 of 46
Define heart rate
The number of times the heart beats per minute
18 of 46
Define cardiac output
Volume of blood ejected by the heart per minute
19 of 46
How do you calculate cardiac output
Heart rate times stroke volume
20 of 46
What is a spirometer?
Equipment that records the volume of air being inspired and expired
21 of 46
Define tidal volume
Amount of air inspired at rest
22 of 46
Define inspiratory reserve volume
Air inhaled durning a deep breath
23 of 46
Define expiritory reserve volume
Air expired durning a deep exhalation
24 of 46
Define residual volume
Amount of air left in the lungs after maximal expiration
25 of 46
What happens to the inspiratory and expiratory reserve volume during exercise
It decreases because of the increase in tidal volume
26 of 46
What happens to the tidal volume during exercise ?
It increase because of the increased demand for oxygen
27 of 46
What is diastole ?
When the blood fills the heart because the ventricles and atria are relaxed
28 of 46
What is systole ?
When the blood is ejected from the heart as the ventricles and atria contract due to the increase in pressure
29 of 46
What is aerobic respiration and when is it used ?
Respiration with oxygen and is used when you’re working at a low intensity for a long period of time
30 of 46
What is the aerobic training zone ?
60%-80% of maximum heart rate
31 of 46
What is anaerobic respiration and when’s it used?
Respiration without oxygen and is used when working at a high intensity for a short period of time
32 of 46
What is the anaerobic training zone ?
80%-90% of maximum heart rate
33 of 46
When does epoc build up ?
After your muscles have respired anaerobically and produced a lot of lactic acid
34 of 46
Define epoc
Amount of oxygen needed to repay the lactic acid buildup after anaerobic respiration
35 of 46
Why does an athlete still breathe heavily after exercise ?
Because they are trying to repay the oxygen debt to break down the lactic acid into carbon dioxide and water
36 of 46
What are the 4 different recovery processes?
Ice bath, cool down, manipulating diet, massages
37 of 46
Why have an ice bath ?
Reduces swelling of muscles and repairs microfibre tears int he muscles, works when removed from ice bath and the blood vessels vasodilate increasing blood flow to muscles, removing waste products and providing them with nutrients
38 of 46
Why do a cool down ?
To remove lactic acid and reduce likelihood of doms, reduces heart rate and breathing rate to reduce shock on body
39 of 46
Why manipulate your diet ?
To replace fluid lost durning exersize= rehydration, replace lost energy= carbohydrates, aid recovery and growth of muscles= Protein// differs for each athlete
40 of 46
Why have a massage after exersize ?
Targets sore muscles and breaks down scar tissue formed around the muscle when tears are repairing, increases movement and reduces soreness
41 of 46
Immediate effects of exersize:
Increased heart rate, breathing rate, tidal volume, stroke volume, sweating, temperature and vasodilation of blood vessels
42 of 46
Short term effect of exersize (up to 36hrs later):
Fatigue/ tiredness, DOMS, cramping, nausea, light headedness
43 of 46
Long term effects of exersize:
Increased strength, muscle endurance, speed, felxibility, stamina, cardiovascular endurance and bradycardia, hypertrophy, weight loss
44 of 46
How do you work out maximum heart rate?
220- age
45 of 46
How do you prevent injury?
Appropriate clothing, take breaks, correct technique, warmup and cool down, avoid overtraining, maintain hydration
