Chapter 10: Respiration during Exercise
OBJECTIVES
By studying this chapter, you should be able to do the following:
1. Describe the primary function of the pulmonary system.
2. Outline the major anatomical components of the respiratory system.
3. List the major muscles involved in inspiration and expiration at rest and during exercise.
4. Discuss the importance of matching blood flow to alveolar ventilation in the lung.
5. Explain how gases are transported across the blood–gas interface in the lung.
6. Describe the major transportation modes of O2 and CO2 in the blood.
7. Discuss the effects of increasing temperature, decreasing pH, and increasing levels of 2–3 DPG on the oxygen–hemoglobin dissociation curve.
8. Describe the ventilatory response to constant load, steadystate exercise. What happens to ventilation if exercise is prolonged and performed in a
hot environment?
9. Describe the ventilatory response to incremental exercise. What factors contribute to the alinear rise in ventilation at work rates above 50% of
V˙O2 max?
10. Identify the location and function of chemoreceptors and mechanoreceptors that contribute to the regulation of breathing.
11. Discuss the neuralhumoral theory of ventilatory control during exercise.
