Sudden Arrhythmic death Syndrome
It can be dangerous to exercise if you already suffer from ___________ (High Blood Pressure) as too much force may be placed on the heart
Hypertension
Hypotension
Hyperthermia
Hypothermia
Having ___________ (Low blood pressure) can make it hard for blood to reach muscles and vital organs. Can cause dizziness and fainting and affect sporting performance
Hypotension
Hypertension
Hyperthermia
Hypothermia
This is the prolonged increase in body temperature, above its normal temperature of 37.5°C. It can cause Weakness, Coordination issues and Heat exhaustion
Hypotension
Hypertension
Hyperthermia
Hypothermia
This is when your body becomes too cold with your core temperature dropping below 35°C
Symptoms are: Shivering, Confusion and Increased risk of heart stopping (In severe cases)
Hypotension
Hypertension
Hyperthermia
Hypothermia
Sudden Arrhythmic death syndrome (SADS) is a genetic heart condition that can suddenly cause death in young healthy people it is caused by
the heart beating too quickly causing it to over work
not enough adrenaline being released for exercise
the hearts natural rhythm becoming disrupted and causing it to stop
the septum not separating oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the heart
Which option is an ADAPTATION to exercise?
Decreased resting heart rate
Increased heart rate
Anticipatory rise
Redirection of blood
What is the Adaptation called when your heart gets bigger?
Vasoconstriction
Hypertension
Capillarisation
Cardiac Hypertrophy
Most Cardiovascular Adaptations result in...
Less oxygenated blood getting to the muscles
More oxygenated blood getting to the muscles
Which option is an ADAPTATION to exercise?
Reduction in resting blood pressure
Increased blood pressure
Anticipatory rise
increased Heart rate
Capillarisation of skeletal and cardiac muscles is the...
decrease in number of capillaries
