Blood Supply P2

Improved Essays
Increased blood supply
An increase our blood supply which is when our muscles contract that cause an increase in temperature and metabolic activity (chemical reactions).
As a result when our muscles contract there is a greater need for oxygen which is met by capillary dilation.
For example
The rugby players when they are warming up their bodies will start to do this, when the body gets warm the blood will flow faster.

Muscle fibre micro tears
During exercise, our muscles are put under stress which causes tiny tears in our muscle fibres, which also cause swelling in our muscle tissue. Improvement can be made if the body have sufficient fuel to repair these micro tears, which also make the slightly stronger than before.
For example
A Boxer

CARDIOVASCULAR
HEART RATE ANTICIPATORY RESPONSE: There are nerves which directly supply our heart and also chemicals which our blood rapidly alter our heart rate, this main reasons nutrients and also extra oxygen to the working muscles before a race. When the body start to anticipate the physical exercise which is about to happen the body will prepare for it by increasing the heart rate slightly. ACTIVITY RESPONSE:
The start of exercise, there are nerve centres in our brain which become aware of the cardiovascular activity. This results in adjustments which start the cardiovascular system to help increase our heart rate and also the local blood flow is improved to the right proportion to the intensity of activity.

INCREASED BLOOD PRESSURE:
Our blood pressure is the pressure of the blood against the walls of our arteries and there also result which in two forces. This is created is our heart pumping blood into our arteries and around our body.

VASODILATION&VASOCONSTRICTION:
During exercise you muscles will need more oxygen which carried in your blood stream. There will be more oxygen to be in use so vasodilation and vasoconstriction will have to

When they are chosen by the chemoreceptors a message has been sent to the medulla, from the medulla, an impulse is to send the respiratory muscles reporting them to work harder than before to remove the waste products from our body.
INCREASED TIDAL VOLUME:
The tidal volume is the amount of air breathed in and out in one breath, the air that passes through the lungs each minute is known as the minute volume, this Increases to allow more air to pass through.

P3 Describe the long-term effects of exercise on the musculoskeletal system and energy systems.
MUSCULAR SYSTEM
HYPERTROPHY:
Hypertrophy occurs where muscle cells grow and also this can be happen after training, for example, weight training and also through using resistance machines. The advantage of hypertrophy, (your muscles getting bigger) is it gives you an advantage as you have better strength.
For example
Football players they need to have larger muscles which will help them larger chance of hitting a more powerful shot that will make it difficult for the goalkeeper to

    I predict also a higher rep count during stage 1 (aerobic exercise) as a pose to during stage 2 (anaerobic exercise). Cellular respiration is the process of energy production and consumption within the body and during cellular respiration there are many bonds being broken of sugars and ATP. I felt warmer after lifting the dumbbell because whenever a bond is broken, energy is released in the form of heat as a by-product to normal energy. Oxygen is a vital part to cellular respiration and oxidative phosphorylation because without it there would be no hydrogen ions being pumped across to form ATP. In aerobic respiration, approximately 30 ATP’s are created whereas in anaerobic only 2 are created because of the lack of oxygen.…

    M1 outline the adaptations to cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal and energy systems, brought about by regular exercise Cardiovascular System The cardiovascular system consists of the blood vessels and the heart. They function is to circulate the blood around the body to all the muscles. The red blood cells carry oxygen to all the muscles through the vein (carries blood to the heart). The veins have thin walls and contain blood under the low pressure.…

    The greater the amount of oxygen extracted by the tissues, the greater the arterio-venous oxygen difference. During exercise blood flows to the tissue increases, and haemoglobin dissociates more easily; therefore the arterio-venous oxygen difference widens during exercise. With aerobic training the tissues become more efficient at getting oxygen. To calculate this we take the oxygen concentration of arterial blood minus the oxygen concentration of venous blood (deoxygenated…

    Over the course of the last 100 years, the lifestyles of humans have seen drastic changes. This has ultimately led to less exercise as everything has become much easier to obtain, especially things like food. All of this has led to the majority of our population becoming obese while also causing our muscles to become less productive. It is common knowledge that the more you use your muscles, the stronger they become. It also works the other way around.…

    1. Auscultation method is more accurate by using the stethoscope to listen for systolic blood pressure compared to palpation of systolic blood pressure at wrist. It is easier to listen for the ‘tap’ during the systolic pressure rather than palpating for it, as the systolic pressure may not be palpated if it is a weak pulse. 2. Systolic pressure: • Pressure in the arteries when the blood is being pumped out of the heart into the arteries • The maximum blood pressure, when the ventricles are in contracting phase Diastolic pressure: • Pressure in the arteries when the blood is flowing away from the arteries into the other blood vessels • The minimum blood pressure, when the heart is relaxed Pulse pressure: • Difference between the systolic pressure and diastolic pressure •…

    Cardiovascular Response

    • 384 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Cardiovascular Response: When exercising the muscles requires a constant supply of oxygen, it is the hearts job to make sure there is enough oxygen being pumped round the body for the muscles, the heart has to pump harder and faster as more oxygen is required to get round the body to the muscles in use otherwise they will fatigue quicker. If this is repeated regularly, then over time the heart will become stronger as will become more used to the higher demands. At the start of exercise, the nerves in the brain detect cardiovascular activity. The nerves then send out chemical signals to increase the heart rate, as well as the strength at which the heart is pumping. This means that more red blood cells are pumped around the body which carries…

    Thus , the oxygen requirement to the respiratory muscles increases which results in decrease in use of oxygen by locomotor muscles. Resulting to this lack of oxygen, respiratoy muscles become fatigue. Morever, post exercise oxygen consumption and energy expenditure is more after high intensity exercise (Doucet, Imbeault, Alméras & Tremblay, 1999) The purpose of conducting a lab is to measure the metabolic and energy expenditure with cycle ergometry. For any activities taking longer time than few minutes, main source of energy is through aerobic metabolism, as we do not store more amount of o2 in body, we must deliver o2 to tissue when it is needed during prolonged exercise.…

    Homeostasis can be defined in many ways. The biological definition would be the habit of a cell to control its internal environment and maintain equilibrium or balance. In more simple way it helps bring back everything to its stable state. All the organs in the human body contributes its actions to the homeostasis system to help bring balance to the neural, thermal and chemical factors by working together in a complicated way. And that being said, all of the homeostasis are being controlled by a system called control system which is generally the brain.…

Flexing in the mirror for self-confidence to building muscle for impressing the ladies, little do these individuals realize how their muscle works while they pump the iron. The muscular system is the network of tissues that help controls movement throughout the body using contraction and relaxation of different muscles. This system is divided into two classes, skeletal (voluntary) and smooth (involuntary).…

    In a large measure that is due to the reason that maximum heart rate steadily falls by about 7 to 8 beats per minute per decade. It happens with or without training. It happens for active people as well as people of sedentary habits. Due to this, the heart cannot pump as much blood even at its maximum effort. With a slower heart rate and less oxygen in the lungs, the muscles do not get enough oxygen rich blood.…
