100

Contraction of the rectus abdominis muscles would result in

Active expiration

100

Body's thermostat is located in?

preoptic-anterior hypothalamus.

100

Delayed onset of muscle soreness is likely due to what?

microscopic tears in the muscle resulting in calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

100

What is the best explanation for why ETAP occurs?

irritation of the parietal peritoneum.

200

What is the maxHR or Karbonen formula?

HR max = 220 - age.

200

Most important muscle during insipiration is?

Diaphragm

200

This is the most abundant and effective sweat gland?

Eccrine

200

This term refers to the fact that an organ system (e.g., cardiovascular) or tissue (e.g., skeletal muscle) must be exercised at a level beyond which it is accustomed to achieving training adaptation.

Overload

200

Name one way to ensure adequate hydration.

- monitor fluid loses during exercise.

- consume fluids (after exercise) equal to approximately 150% weight loss.

- consume fluids every 15-20 minutes during exercise.

300

What is the normal pacemaker of the heart?

sinoatrial node

300

Carbon dioxide is transported in arterial blood principally as?

Bicarbonate

300

This is the primary source of heat production during exercise.

contracting skeletal muscles.

300

HIIT training is advantageous for which of the following reasons?

Both training sessions are time-efficient and workout variation options are plentiful are correct

300

Exercise-induced asthma can impair pulmonary gas exchange by

increasing airway resistance and reducing ventilation to the lung.

400

The cardiovascular control center is located here.

medulla oblongata

400

The gas that reaches the gas-exchange zone of the lung is termed

alveolar ventilation.

400

Which type is the principal means of heat loss at rest in a cool indoor environment?

Radiation

400

Endurance training has been shown to reduce the oxygen deficit in subjects performing a bout of submaximal exercise. This is likely due to

increases in the number of mitochondria and capillaries.

400

Moderate or severe COVID-19 can promote both lung injury and impaired gas exchange in patients. This impaired gas exchange likely occurs due to what?

A collection of fluid inside and outside the alveolus and the formation of scar tissue

500

Most of the oxygen contained in the blood is what?

bound to hemoglobin as oxyhemoglobin.

500

The respiratory control center is located within the what?

medulla oblongata

500

Humans and other animals that maintain a rather constant body core temperature are called what?

Hemotherms

500

High responders to endurance exercise training (i.e., individuals that achieve large increases in VO2max) can achieve up to _________ % improvement in VO2max following a prolonged and intense training program.

50%

500

When considering exercises of different durations (e.g., short duration to very long duration) performed maximally, activities that rely primarily on the _________ energy system fatigue first, while activities that rely on the _________ energy system fatigue last.

ATP-PC, aerobic
