Lab 9 Report: Exercise Physiology Introduction When the human body is put to work and undergoes any sort of activity‚ it requires more energy and resources in order to sustain this. The cells in muscles and organs must work faster‚ and thus require more energy to do so. The body compensates by increasing heart rate and respiration in order to increase the amount of oxygen entering‚ carbon dioxide leaving‚ and rate at which these gases are delivered to cells throughout the body. In this lab‚ we

The Physiology of Fitness – Acute and long term effects on the body Musculoskeletal System Response to acute exercise Increased Blood Supply During exercise your blood supply increases to your muscles‚ the reason for this is to keep them working and making sure that they don’t get tired too easily. Increase in Muscle Pliability During exercise your muscles will also become more pliable because as the muscles contract quickly they will generate heat‚ this then makes the muscles more pliable

Physiology of stomach:- For understanding approaches for gastro retention‚ it is essential to overview gastric physiology and gastric motility. The stomach is situated in the left upper part of the abdominal cavity immediately under the diaphragm. Human stomach has a resting volume of 25-50ml‚ which can distend upto1500ml following a meal. It is divided into 5 anatomical parts: a) Cardia:- First part of the stomach below the esophagus. It contains cardiac spincter‚which is a thin ring of muscle

series of integrated changes in function that involve most‚ if not all‚ of its physiological systems. Movement requires activation and control of the musculoskeletal system; the cardiovascular and respiratory systems provide the ability to sustain this movement over extended periods. When the body engages in exercise training several times a week or more frequently‚ each of these physiological systems undergoes specific adaptations that increase the body’s efficiency and capacity. After a twelve
