What happens to heart rate during and after exercise?
Your heart speeds up to pump extra food and oxygen to the muscles. Breathing speeds up to get more oxygen and to get rid of more carbon dioxide. When a fit person, such as an athlete, exercises the pulse rate, breathing rate and lactic acid levels rise much less than they do in an unfit person.
What are the changes that occur in breathing and heartbeat as a person climbs a mountain?
when a person climbs on a mountain the breathing of a person will become difficult because the rate if oxygen is more
What are the procedures for breathing failures?
Usually you would intubate the person and and get them on a ventilator or oxygen
What happen to a person's breathing as they climbed up a mountain?
faster breathing rate deep(er) breathing/big(ger) breaths (Ⓐ heavy/harder/gasping) exercise/more energy needed/faster respiration more/a lot of oxygen required/used less oxygen (available) more carbon dioxide/lactic acid (in blood)
What would happen if a person was working out and there was a lack of oxygen?
If this were to occur, a person would experience a lactic acid build up in their muscles causing pain and fatigue.
Why should everyone keep breathing?
Breathing is one of the components of the respiring. When a person respires, the person will breath in oxygen and exhale (breath out) carbon dioxide. Oxygen replaces carbon dioxide which is toxic in large amounts and keeps the body healthy.
What does it mean when a person continues breathing heavily for some time after exercising in order to repay an oxygen debt?
When a person continues breathing heavily for some time after exercising in order to repay an oxygen debt, it means that the supply of oxygen in less than the demand. This means that the body is working hard and the amount of oxygen cannot cope with the level of activity.
Why his heart rate increases during a sprint?
Your heart speeds up to pump extra food and oxygen to the muscles. Breathing speeds up to get more oxygen and to get rid of more carbon dioxide. When a fit person, such as an athlete, exercises the pulse rate, breathing rate and lactic acid levels rise much less than they do in an unfit person.
Is there any danger to a healthy person from high altitude breathing?
There is danger to a healthy person from high altitude breathing because the oxygen level is very low which could possibly cause a heart attack or stroke.
What is the sign that a person has accrued oxygen debt?
They are breathing heavily and rapidly to expel the excess carbon dioxide out of their systems.
How efficient are your lungs at capturing oxygen from the air?
Our lungs are extremely efficient at capturing oxygen from the air. However, it will vary from person to person, as it generally depends on breathing patterns of an individual and if they have an upper respiratory ailment.
What is the purpose of rescue breathing?
When a person has stopped breathing and can not breathe on his own, rescue breathing (or Mouth-To-Mouth Resuscitation) is given to try and saved the persons live (in addition to CPR and/or defibrilation).
