Why is cardiovascular exercise important? There are many reasons‚ as for one cardiovascular exercise helps your heart and lungs supply oxygen and blood to working muscles. Cardiovascular exercise helps you lose weight and it gets your heart rate up to prevent heart attacks‚ strokes‚ and sickness such as diabetes. In my opinion Cardiovascular exercise is very important and should not be ignored. Also in my opinion a child the age 5-15 should get at least 2-3 hours of exercise a day. Cardiovascular

Exercise 2: Skeletal Muscle Physiology: Activity 4: Tetanus in Isolated Skeletal Muscle Lab Report Pre-lab Quiz Results You scored 100% by answering 3 out of 3 questions correctly. 1. Stimulus frequency refers to You correctly answered: b. the rate that stimulating voltage pulses are applied to an isolated whole skeletal muscle. 2. Which of the following distinguishes a state of unfused tetanus from a state of complete (fused) tetanus? You correctly answered: d. Muscle tension increases and decreases

THE MORE EXERCISE AND HEALTIER LIFE These days‚ most people have busy work life. As a result of this‚ they do not devote sufficient time for regular exercise. At the same time‚ they are not aware of how important regular exercise is for their health. The majority of people do not know that regular exercise helps people to protect from heart disease‚ obesity‚ back pain. This situation causes to increase some diseases such as heart

PhysioEX notes Autorhythmicity- heart’s ability to trigger its own contractions Phase O- a lot like depolarization in neuronal action potentials. Sodium channels open‚ increase of sodium INTO cell. Phase 1- sodium channels close‚ potassium channels close‚ decrease in potassium and sodium. Calcium channels open‚ increase of calcium into cell. Phase 2- Plateau phase‚ membrane still depolarized (contract). Potassium channels closed‚ L-type calcium channels stay open. Lasts 0.2 seconds/200

predicted that the resting membrane potential would become less negative. 3. The extracellular Na+ did not alter the membrane potential in the resting neuron because the Na+ channels were mostly closed. 4. Na+ and K+ both have a relative permeability of 0 voltage outside a resting neuron and a relative negative permeability inside a resting neuron. 5. A change in Na+ or K+ conductance would affect the resting membrane potential because if the membrane is permeable to a particular ion‚ that ion will diffuse

The forest lake aquathon consists of a 250 meter swim and a 2.5 kilometre run. A specific training program has been made to improve my weaknesses and work on cardiovascular fitness and endurance. This essay will also evaluate the personal training program that has been created and whether or not it will help improve my fitness. In last year’s aquathon I did not participate‚ but the average time that most students finished were around 20 minutes. There was also a fitness test where students swum

Activity 1 Pre-Lab Quiz K+ inside a cell = 150 mM; K+ outside a cell = 5 mM Na+ inside a cell = 5 mM; Na+ outside a cell = 150 mM Stop & Think question What is the polarity of the resting membrane potential (voltage)? Negative What does it mean that the voltage just inside the membrane is negative? B Membrane of most cells contains K+ leak channels…..b What will happen to the resting membrane potential if the extracellular K+ concentration is increase? Less negative What happens

PhysioEx – Exercise 9 Activity 1: 1. excretion and regulation 2. glomerular capillaries (glomerulus) & Bowman’s capsule 3. The filtrate flows from the Bowman’s capsule into the renal tubule called the proximal convoluted tubule then into the loop of Henle‚ and finally into the distal convoluted tubule: a. Proximal Convoluted Tubule b. Loop of Henle c. Distal Convoluted Tubule 4. When the radius of the afferent arteriole was decreased‚ the pressure and the filtration rate both decreased

Beginning at 40 seconds‚ with the pH at 7.52‚ respiratory alkalosis occurred. 7. Did the PCO2 level change during the course of this run? If so‚ how? Yes the PCO2 levels did fluctuate over the course of this run decreased from 40mm Hg to 19.7mm Hg 8. If you observed an acid/base imbalance during this run‚ how would you expect to renal system to compensate for this condition? Renal compensation for alkalosis means the kidneys will correct the basic conditions by increasing H+ absorption and by increasing
