Discussion:

A process in living organisms involving the production of energy, typically with

the intake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide from the oxidation of
complex organic substances.The word equation for aerobic respiration is: glucose +
oxygen → carbon dioxide + water (+ energy released) You need to be able to
recognise the chemical symbols: C 6H 12O 6 + 6O 2 → 6CO 2 + 6H 2O. Respiration is a
series of reactions, but this summarises the overall process.A rhythmical throbbing
of the arteries as blood is propelled through them, typically as felt in the wrists
or neck.Cellular respiration is this process in which oxygen and glucose are used
to create ATP, carbon dioxide, and water. ATP, carbon dioxide, and water are all
products of this process because they are what is created. Carbon dioxide is
released as a gas when you exhale.A person's respiratory rate is the number of
breaths you take per minute. The normal respiration rate for an adult at rest is 12
to 20 breaths per minute. A respiration rate under 12 or over 25 breaths per minute
while resting is considered abnormal.The heart rate increases during exercise. The
rate and depth of breathing increases - this makes sure that more oxygen is
absorbed into the blood, and more carbon dioxide is removed from it. The rate of
breathing can be measured by counting the number of breaths in one minute.During
exercise there is an increase in physical activity and muscle cells respire more
than they do when the body is at rest. The heart rate increases during exercise.
The rate and depth of breathing increases - this makes sure that more oxygen is
absorbed into the blood, and more carbon dioxide is removed from it.During
exercise, two of the important organs of the body come into action: the heart and
the lungs. The lungs bring oxygen into the body, to provide energy, and remove
carbon dioxide, the waste product created when you produce energy. The heart pumps
the oxygen to the muscles that are doing the exercise.The heart rate increases
during exercise. The rate and depth of breathing increases - this makes sure that
more oxygen is absorbed into the blood, and more carbon dioxide is removed from it.
The rate of breathing can be measured by counting the number of breaths in one
minute.Your heart, which is a muscular organ, gets a workout during exercise,
too.When you start your exercise, your muscles will start to work harder and demand
more oxygen. This demand will cause sympathetic nerves to stimulate the heart to
beat faster and with more force to increase overall blood flow.The heart must beat
faster during exercise because by increasing the heart rate, the body is able to
increase cardiac output and deliver the necessary blood flow to the muscles. During
exercise the body's muscles increase their activity level and consume more
oxygen.The best places to take your pulse are at your wrist, inside the elbow, at
the side of your neck or on the top of your foot, according to The American Heart
Association. You can also take your pulse at your groin, on your temple or behind
your knees. The pulse felt on the neck is called the carotid pulse.During exercise,
my pulse was very fast. But after when I relaxed it got back to its normal
beat.Your pulse is your heart rate, or the number of times your heart beats in one
minute. Pulse rates vary from person to person. Your pulse is lower when you are at
rest and increases when you exercise (more oxygen-rich blood is needed by the body
when you exercise).The lungs bring oxygen into the body when breathing in and send
carbon dioxide out of the body when breathing out. Carbon dioxide is a waste gas
produced by the cells of the body. ... The lungs add oxygen to the blood and remove
carbon dioxide in a process called gas exchange.Gas exchange takes place in the
millions of alveoli in the lungs and the capillaries that envelop them. As shown
below, inhaled oxygen moves from the alveoli to the blood in the capillaries, and
carbon dioxide moves from the blood in the capillaries to the air in the
alveoli.Just as exercise strengthens other muscles in your body, it helps your
heart muscle become more efficient and better able to pump blood throughout your
body. This means that the heart pushes out more blood with each beat, allowing it
to beat slower and keep your blood pressure under control.Daily physical activity
can help prevent heart disease and stroke by strengthening your heart muscle,
lowering your blood pressure, raising your high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels
(good cholesterol) and lowering low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels (bad
cholesterol), improving blood flow, and increasing your heart's working capacity.
Optimizing each of these factors can provide additional benefits of decreasing the
risk for Peripheral Vascular Disease.Exercise has many benefits.Aerobic exercise
(which relies on the heart pumping oxygen to the muscles) can be beneficial for the
heart. It improves blood circulation, strengthens the heart muscle, reduces risks
of heart disease (by reducing abnormally high blood pressure) and can reduce some
symptoms of heart failure.An increase in preload results in an increased force of
contraction by Starling's law of the heart; this does not require a change in
contractility. An increase in afterload will increase contractility (through the
Anrep effect). An increase in heart rate will increase contractility (through the
Bowditch effect).It promotes good body structure and proper transportation of
blood.
