a)

Aerobic

b)

Anaerobic

7.

Cardiorespiratory endurance training has which of the following benefits? (Select all that apply)

20.

Which of the following describes how the cardiovascular system works with the respiratory system to provide oxygen to muscles?

a)

Respiratory system: inhalation of oxygen and exhalation of carbon dioxide. Alveoli/capillaries: site of gas exchange. Cardiovascular system: pumps blood and delivers oxygen to muscle cells.

b)

Cardiovascular system: inhalation of oxygen and exhalation of carbon dioxide. Alveoli/capillaries: site of gas exchange. Respiratory system: pumps blood and delivers oxygen to muscle cells.

c)

Respiratory system: inhalation of oxygen and exhalation of carbon dioxide. Trachea/capillaries: site of gas exchange. Cardiovascular system: pumps blood and delivers oxygen to muscle cells.

d)

Respiratory system: inhalation of oxygen and exhalation of carbon monoxide. Arteries/capillaries: site of gas exchange. Cardiovascular system: pumps blood and delivers oxygen to muscle cells.
