(a) Give generalized conclusions (in point form) according to your observation in (a). 1. systolic pressure increases when the degree of exercise increases Systolic pressure increases gradually from 115 mmHg at rest to 150 mmHg during severe exercise. When thr degree of exercise increases‚ the skeleton muscle needs more energy(ATP) for rapid contraction by carrying out aerobic respiration. The skeleton muscle required faster uptake of oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide. At the same time‚ skeleton
