...Exercise Physiology Lab Lab Questions: Q 1) Which human body system's activity was most affected by exercise? Explain why you think this was the case. A 1) The Human body system's activity that was most affected by exercise was the circulatory system. It was the circulatory system because it was the system that increased the most after exercise. I think this is the case because it had to work the most and it had the most effect on the body. Q 2) Which human body system's activity was least affected by exercise? Explain why you think this is the case. A 2) The human body system's activity that was least affected by exercise was the muscular system. It was the muscular system because it only increased by 9% after exercise. I think this is the case because it didn't have a lasting effect on the body. Q 3) On a separate sheet of paper, please type an essay fully explaining how all of the following concepts are related to each other. Include the necessary equations, name any body systems involved. Effectively, create a story linking all of these terms together. • amount of glucose usage • oxygen intake () • heart rate () • rate of breathing () • number of repetitions of a certain muscular-moving exercise • muscle cramping • rate of ATP production () • carbon Dioxide output () A 3) When you Exercise you notice several things about your body.

...1. According to the results obtained, the experimental VC is lower than the predicted VC value. The experimental values for VC, FRC and TLC are substantially lower than the predicted values which are based on heights and ages. The differences in the results could possibly be because to the person has a smaller chest cavity, a lower level of fitness or a habit of smoking which decreases FRC. Psychological effects such as self-consciousness of the person could have also caused the differences in the values. The structure of the equipment, having a long connection tube also adds on to the dead space hence increasing the level of CO2 over time, which can alter the results. 2. As shown in our results, the time period between the expiration peaks in flow pattern is shorter than the inspiration peaks. This shows that exhalation is a passive action because it does not require effort, therefore air flows out faster and expiration occurs over a shorter time compared to inspiration. During inspiration, muscular effort is needed and the pattern of the flow shows that period of inspiration is longer than expiration. 3. RV cannot be determined by ordinary spirometry because it is physically not possible to exhale the RV. The RV is there because during inspiration a lower pressure is created in out lungs. If the RV is not present, our lungs would collapse. While spirometry cannot determine this, special techniques have been made to determine this, such as nitrogen washout. 4...

...nd Chronic Effects of Exercise on the Body Describe the musculoskeletal, energy systems, cardiovascular and respiratory systems responses to acute exercise (P1 & P2) Explain the response of the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and respiratory systems responses to acute exercise (M1) There are a number of ways which the musculoskeletal system responds to acute exercise. These include: Musculoskeletal: • Increased blood supply- When we exercise there is an increased demand from the body for oxygen. More oxygen is required in order for our muscles to function; they require more oxygen as a result of the muscles having to work harder when we exercise. To allow an increased heart rate which brings more blood around the body warming up must occur on the behalf of the person. When the muscles work there is also a high demand for other nutrients such as fats and carbohydrates, these are used to make the adenosine triphosphate which is used for energy. The blood vessels in our body must expand in order to allow red blood cells to pass through and reach the muscles quicker. When the blood vessels expand in order for a higher volume of blood to pass this is called vasodilation and this ensures the nutrients needed for the muscles to function are being delivered in the correct quantities. As the muscles are working at an increased rate more blood is required as well as the nutrients, the extra blood arrives from areas such as the digestive system...

...Exercise Physiology Test Name: Justin Dueyen Athletes and other sportsmen such as soccer players require a pre participation routine before the start of a match or any routine practice. Such routines should include a warm up session that is followed by a stretching session. The warm up session functions to elevate core temperature by engaging in some light calisthenics or light running (White, 2008). In turn, this increases extensibility and flexibility of muscles and tissues. Similarly, the stretching routine also serves to increase the extensibility and flexibility of muscles and tissues. This paper will give the rational for using dynamic stretching, its benefits and the specific movements that one can use during the stretching process. Dynamic stretching is among the preferred stretching techniques used by a majority coaches. It involves the controlled swinging of both arms and legs without stretching out of one’s range of motion. In this case, the stretch is produced by both active muscular contractions and momentum (Reilly, 2007). During dynamic stretching, one uses certain movements depending on their sport in preparation for body movement. This type of stretching tends to be confused with ballistic stretching. This is because if one stretches beyond their static ability, it is no longer dynamic stretching but rather ballistic stretching. This routine of dynamic stretching should begin from low intensity and gradually progress to...

...intracellular organelle have membranes as part of their structure? How would the breakdown of the membranes of these structures affect the function of Joseph’s heart? All intracellular organelles have membranes, (www.Nature.com/scitable/topicpage/cell-membranes-14052567). Cytosol consist of ATP that transfers nutrients to the cardiac muscle and throughout the body (Anatomy and Physiology third edition, pg. 76). Without ATP being carried to the cardiac heart muscle through the cytosol it cannot receive proteins and nutrients. The function of the heart if affected and the cell membranes are damaged and can die. D. Two important pieces of information- the instructions Joseph’s body needs to repair itself and his predisposition for vascular disease- are both contained within the cells on which structures? Joseph has a family history for cardiovascular disease. The predisposition is within the power house of the cell called mitochondrial DNA (Anatomy and Physiology third edition pg. 85). In order to repair the damaged cells within Joseph’s body the synthesis from mRNA proteins are needed (Anatomy and Physiology third edition pg. 90). E. Joseph’s heart attack has caused the function of his cells to change. What types of proteins in the cell membrane were involved in the homeostatic imbalance of his heart cells?

...The Barometric Pressure (total atmospheric pressure) at sea level is 760torr. The atmosphere is 20.9% oxygen so the partial pressure of oxygen in the atmosphere is 160torr. In order for inspiration to occur (atmospheric air to enter the lungs) the diaphragm (the muscle that separates the thoracic and abdominal cavity) receives action potentials and pulls down, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity (and the lungs). According to Boyle’s Law this increase of volume, decreases the pressure on the lungs below normal 760torr. Because of the pressure gradient between the atmosphere (high pressure=760torr) and the lungs (low pressure<760torr) air rushes into the lungs (inspiration). The tidal volume that enters the body is 500mL, 150mL of this fills the anatomical dead space (trachea and conduction bronchioles, bronchioles 1-17). The remaining 350mL enters the respiratory bronchioles (bronchioles 18-23) where gas exchange occurs. Air enters the one cell thick alveoli where partial pressure of oxygen is 100torr, there are 300 million alveoli in the lungs which creates a cross sectional area of 70m2 (where gas exchange can occur). The alveoli are in direct contact with the 1 cell thick pulmonary capillaries where erythrocytes travel one at a time, creating a diffusion length of 20 microns. The partial pressure of oxygen in the pulmonary capillaries before reaching the alveoli is 40torr. Due to the partial pressure law, oxygen diffuses from its high partial pressure in the alveoli...

...MODULE 1 By Alina Corina Nicorescu Presented to Name of your University Contents Introduction 3 The constancy of the Internal Environment 4 Biological functionality is multilevel 5 Bibliography 7 Introduction Claude Bernard was a French Physiologist who was best known for his works and discoveries during his lifetime in the field of digestive processes, the liver and the regulation of the supply of the blood though the vasomotor nerves. The most renowned and important discovery of Bernard was related to use of the secretions of the pancreatic tissues to break down the molecules of fat into smaller particles so as to aid the digestion process and the other specific discovery was that the principle process of digestion does not take place in the stomach rather it takes place in the small intestine. His next discovery unveiled the ability of the liver to split the reserves of the glycogen energy into sugar particles so as to use them as a quick source of energy for the body and to maintain the levels of the sugar in the body. Finally, Bernard discovered the control of the vasomotor nerves on the blood vessels, and how it responds to the changes in the temperatures while operating in an environment. With this the Bernard was able to advance his work on blood vessels and tried to understand the ability of the body to constantly maintain the internal temperature. This led him to formulate the ideas in relation to the constancy of the internal environment of the...

...• Quadrants and regions • Anatomy and physiology • Microscopic to macroscopic • Body systems • Medical specialties The body planes and the body directions are used when trying to describe the location on the body it can also be called anatomical directions. For example anterior is used for front or in front of and posterior is for after, behind, following. The body cavity is being used when studying any fluid filled space in the multicellular organism. Like the pelvic cavity, ventral cavity dorsal cavity and so forth. Regions and quadrants are used to determine what part of the body you are studying, we determined that with planes there is front and back and now with regions and quadrants it gets a little more specific. Anatomy and physiology are used to determine how each part of the body work and why it works the way it does. Microscopic to macroscopic is the study of the bodies smallest parts and how they come together to make a large complex system. Body systems are how the organs function in the body, how the heart beats how we breathe. Medical specialties are the treatment for a specific area in the body. • In health care each organizational approach is used differently. The quadrant system is used more so when health care workers are doing examinations and they are trying to localize pain, tumors or abdominal structures. Doing a CT scan determines what plane of the body is being looked at. With anatomy and physiology the health care provider can explain the...

It’s reductionist, which leads to the following criticisms: (a) If someone comes to you with depression is it any use to them to tell them that their serotonin receptors are not functioning properly? (b) Mind/body problem 1: psychology has great influence on physiology (stress and illness) (c) Mind/body problem 2: sensation is not necessarily the same as perception (d) Consciousness: what is it, where is it and is it any use finding it? (e) What about free will? Biological approach advocates determinism 2. Evolutionary approach has a number of problems: (a) Altruism: difficult to explain. Even sociobiologists come up with some very convoluted explanations. (b) Our developing cortex means that we rely less on instincts and more on “higher” processes. (c) Our behaviour is very much socially and culturally determined. 3. Genes: Difficult to separate genes and environmental influences on behaviour. 2. If we know the physiological basis of some aspects of behaviour (e.g. depression) then we can treat the problem using drugs, which could solve the problem entirely if it’s simply a straightforward chemical imbalance. Plus, some aspects of physiology and anatomy are very useful when it comes to diagnosing brain damage etc. 3. Evolutionary theory can offer some neat explanations of behaviour that would otherwise be inexplicable (e.g. graffiti, appendix). 4.

...Clinical Notes The Visible Human Project p. 7 Homeostasis and Disease p. 13 An Introduction to Studying the Human Body This textbook will serve as an introduction to the inner workings of your body, providing information about both its structure and its function. Many of the students who use this book are preparing for careers in health-related fields—but regardless of your career choice, you will find the information within these pages relevant to your future. You do, after all, live in a human body! Being human, you most likely have a seemingly insatiable curiosity—and few subjects arouse so much curiosity as our own bodies. The study of anatomy and physiology will provide answers to many questions regarding the functioning of your body in both health and disease. Although we will be focusing on the human body, the principles we will learn apply to other living things as well. Our world contains an enormous diversity of living organisms that vary widely in appearance and lifestyle. One aim of biology—the science of life—is to discover the unity and the patterns that underlie this diversity, and thereby shed light on what we have in common with other living things. Animals can be classified according to their shared characteristics, and birds, fish, and humans are members of a group called the vertebrates, characterized by a segmented vertebral column. The shared characteristics and organizational patterns provide useful clues about how these animals have evolved over time...
