    Respiratory system: Minute ventilation is the quantity of oxygen which is taken in by your lungs per minute. When we exercise there is a higher oxygen intake per minute due to a higher breathing rate‚ we will also need more oxygenated blood cells to go round to the muscles in use to help try and prevent muscular injuries. The reason why when minute ventilation increases is positive to an athlete is because there is a higher intake of oxygen and nutrients needed. This will mean that the athlete

    As mammals our aerobic metabolic system requires oxygen for us to sustain life. The organ that transports oxygen from the environment into the body where it is needed‚ are the lungs. Oxygen is transported through cellular respiration from the lungs to tissues and organs. Between 2‚100 to 2‚400 gallons of air is breathed to fuel 2‚400 gallons of blood that is pumped into the heart. Respiration is controlled by the medulla oblongata‚ which deals with the autonomic function of breathing. This characteristic

    all 3 stages produce a little ATP‚ there is one stage that makes more than the other and that is the Electron Transport Chain stage. The cells get the oxygen for cellular respiration from the circulatory and respiratory systems. First oxygen is breathed in from the air by the respiratory system. When breathing in oxygen goes through the mouth and nose‚ the epiglottis‚ the trachea and then to the lungs after traveling through the bronchi. Air then travels through the bronchioles and the alveoli. Oxygen

    circulation system. Blood is transferred through these tubes from the heat‚ to all of the body. The vein is also a part of the circulation system. The vein is what brings the oxygen depleted blood back to the heart. The artery’s for most part are bigger/stronger then most veins. This being because the atreys have to pump the oxygenated blood from the heart‚ to all over the body. The veins only have to bring the oxygen depleted blood back to the heart.

    et al. 2012). The respiratory dysfunction is associated with formation of atelectasis in dependent lung areas‚ which can impair pulmonary compliance‚ gas exchange and oxygenation (Staffieri et al. 2007; De Monte et al. 2013). Such alterations may be prevented by using mechanical ventilation‚ which can be adjusted in terms of fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2)‚ positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)‚ mode of ventilation and tidal volume (VT) aiming to prevent further respiratory impairments and cardiovascular
