Resource summary
THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
AEROBIC RESPIRATION
OCCOURS IN THE PRESENCE OF OXYGEN (02)
GLUCOSE + OXYGEN (02) ---> ENERGY + CARBON DIOXIDE (C02) + WATER
Used when body is exercising over a long period of time - Must have a constant supply of 02 to work efficiently.
GASEOUS EXCHANGE
This is when the Oxygen (02) is taken from the air & Exchanged for Carbon Dioxide (C02)
ALVEOLI
These are small air sacs in the lungs where gaseous exchange takes place.
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION
Occours in the ABSENSE of Oxygen (02)
GLUCOSE --> ENERGY --> LACTIC ACID
Can only be used for SHORT PERIODS
Muscles call on GLYCOGEN stores for ENERGY.
(GLYCOGEN is turned into GLUCOSE without 02)
LACTIC ACID is produced when our muscls work ANAEROBICALLY
LACTIC ACID... a mild Poison to muscles
THE RECOVERY PROCESS
After ANAEROBIC exercise the body must recover.
Extra Oxygen (02) must me taken in too 1) Pay the Oxygen Debt 2) Get rid of the Lactic Acid build-up.
STEP 1
Expiration of BREATH... CO2 OUT = LESS LACTIC ACID
STEP 2
PERSPIRATION... Releases Heat & Excess water
STEP 3
EXCRETION... Releases Excess water & Other waste products from Lactic Acid
