  1. 1What is anaerobic respiration?High intensity lasting up to 60 seconds. Your body breaks down glucose to create energy without oxygen.
  2. 2What is the equation for anaerobic respirationGlucose ---> energy + lactic acid
  3. 3What is lactic acid?A poison that can cause pain and reduce muscle contractions
  4. 4What is oxygen debt?The amount of oxygen needed to break down the lactic acid in muscles after vigorous exercise
  5. 5How do you recover from anaerobic respiration?1) Breathing to reduce oxygen debt
    2) Perspiration to cool and remove water
    3) Excretion to remove water and waste
  6. 6What is fatigue?Extreme tiredness caused by lack of muscle glycogen
  7. 7What is stress?Physical, mental or emotional adjustment to change
  8. 8What impacts do fatigue have on the body?~ Muscles cant contract
    ~ Concentration decreases
    ~ Movement is less fluent
  9. 9How do performers respond to stress?Get psyched up (determined)
    Aggression
    Tension (tightness in muscles)
    Anxiety
    Drop in motivation
  10. 10What makes up the circulatory system?Blood and blood vessels
  11. 11What are the functions of the circulatory system?TRANSPORT: oxygen to muscles / CO2 to lungs / waste products to kidneys
    PROTECTION: White blood cells / Platelets form clots to stop bleeding
    TEMP CONTROL: maintain and controls
  12. 12What are the two types of temperature control in the circulatory system?Vasoconstriction ~ maintains heat
    Vasodilation ~ cools the body
  13. 13What is the cardiovascular system?The circulatory and respiratory system working in unison.
    Heart and Blood vessels
  14. 14What is cardiovascular endurance?The ability of the heart to provide oxygen to the muscles for long periods of exercise.
  15. 15What are the different training zones? (%)Max heart rate ~ 220-age
    Anaerobic zone ~ 80-90% of max heart rate
    Aerobic zone ~ 60-80% of max heart rate
  16. 16What is recovery rate?The time it takes for the heart rate to return to resting
  17. 17What is aerobic respiration?Low intensity activity for a long period of time
  18. 18What is the equation for aerobic respiration?Glucose + oxygen ---> energy + CO2 + water
  19. 19Where does gaseous exchange take place?Between alveoli and capillaries
  20. 20What happens in gaseous exchange?High pressures of oxygen diffuse into the blood in capillary.
    High pressures of CO2 diffuse from capillary into the alveoli.
    They do this to balance pressure.
  21. 21What are the two types of injury?Internally caused --> Where the performer is solely responsible.
    Externally caused --> Environmental factors are responsible such as conditions or opponents.
  22. 22What are the three causes of internally caused injury?Incorrect technique
    Overuse
    Sudden movements
  23. 23What are the three causes of externally caused injury?Foul Play
    Impact
    Equipment / Clothing
