Which type of respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen?

What are the two products of aerobic respiration?

What is the first stage of aerobic respiration called?

Your exercise capacity is inherited from your _____________ since all the mitochondria in an individual's body are inherited from this parent. If this parent is a great endurance athlete, you will have the capacity to be one as well.

A conclusion that can be drawn from reading "Mitochondria Functions and Training" is that

Lactate Threshold is

The Phoshpogen system

The lactate system utilizes

Lactic acid is formed

Endurance training causes which of the following changes in red muscle fibers?

Lactate is recognized as a key substance to provide energy, produce glucose and liver glycogen and is the preferred fuel source of highly oxidative muscle fibers.

Blood lactate levels are only a measure of lactate accumulation, not lactate production. The faster lactate can be shuttled back to pyruvate and used as a fuel in the aerobic pathway, the less accumulation of lactate in the blood, the more work the athlete can do.

All 3 energy pathways are used in the human body simultaneously. The intensity of work determines which energy pathway dominates.

Respiration is the process of gas exchange between the atmosphere and body cells. There are 4 phases. Gas exchange between the air & blood is called

The correct pathway of air into the body is

Contraction of the external intercostal muscles causes which of the following to occur?

The majority of the air we breathe is

Breathing is an involuntary act controlled by the respiratory centers of the brain called

Respiratory centers of the brain control respiration by sensing levels of

The partial pressure of carbon dioxide is 45 mm Hg in the blood & 40 mm Hg in the alveoli. What happens to the carbon dioxide?

The normal breathing rate per minute at rest is approximately _____ breaths in adults.

The epiglottis is a flap-like structure that stands upright, allowing air to enter the larynx . During swallowing, it presses downward & prevents food from entering the

This condition is caused by oxygen deficiency and can be caused by inadequate blood flow, poisons / toxins (like CO)

Cigarette smoking causes

A condition in which the smooth muscle lining the airway constrict, reducing the size of the airways, cutting down on the flow of air and is accompanied by symptoms of wheezing, shortness of breath and coughing, is

A condition in which airways become inflamed and narrower, often due to viral infection, which restricts the flow of air and increases the work of the respiratory muscles is

A condition in which the pleural cavity becomes filled with air that has entered through an opening in the chest is called

The device used to measure lung capacity is called a

Which of the following prevents the alveoli from collapsing?

This hormone raises blood glucose levels, converting stored glycogen to glucose.

Which of the following represents the correct order of stored energy utilization?

Endurance performance is determined by the athlete’s ability to

The maximum amount of oxygen (mL) used in one minute per Kg of body weight is

During graded maximal exercise, the point at which blood lactate concentration starts to accumulate (rise above resting values) is known as (choose all that apply)

This protein is responsible for carrying most O₂ throughout the body in the blood.

The volume of air that is normally exhaled after a normal inhalation at rest is known as

The volume of air that can be maximally exhaled after a maximal inhalation is known as

Which of the following activities uses mainly the lactic acid fermentation pathway?
