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
