Aerobic respiration |
This occurs when oxygen is present. Glucose + Oxygen = Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water |
|
Anaerobic respiration |
This occurs when oxygen is not present. Glucose = Energy + Lactic Acid |
|
Oxygen debt |
This is a result of anaerobic respiration, when your muscles need more oxygen to get rid of the lactic acid build up. |
|
Recovery period |
Expiration of breath-removes carbon dioxide and other waste products from the lungs Perspiration-temperature control-allows release of excess water Excretion-removes water and other waste products from lactic acid. |
|
Action of breathing: Breathing in (inspiration) |
The intercostal muscles and the diaphragm contract raising the ribs and pushing out the sternum. Causing the lungs to expand, the pressure created sucks the air down into the lungs. |
|
Action of breathing: Breathing out (expiration) |
The intercostal muscles and the diaphragm relax causing the sternum and ribs to return to their normal position. This causes the lungs to deflate which pushes the air out of the lungs. |
|
Lactic acid |
Is a poisonous product produced as a result of anaerobic respiration. It causes fatigue in the muscles. |
|
Gaseous exchange |
Is the process where by oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide. This takes place in the alveoli air sacs in the lungs. |
