What is the shoulder muscle called?
Deltoid
Which gas is produced by the muscles during exercise as a waste product that needs to be transported and removed?
Carbon dioxide
Which sugar is broken down to produce energy and lactic acid in the absence of oxygen?
Glucose
What typically happens to muscle temperature during a warm up?
Remains constant
Increases
Decreases
In which part of a bone are blood cells produced?
Bone marrow
Which of the following functions of the cardiovascular system occurs in the veins?
Diffusion of gases
Carrying blood away from the heart
Carrying blood towards the heart
Which fatiguing by-product is made in the legs of a 400 m runner during anaerobic exercise?
Lactic acid
Which term describes the increase in size of the heart wall as a result of long term training?
Capillarisation
Cardiac hypertrophy
Cardiac output
The main functions of the skeletal system
Which formula is correct for cardiac output?
Stroke volume × heart rate
For how long can anaerobic exercise be continued before fatigue?
A few seconds
FITT ?
Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type
Which three bones are found in the arm?
Humerus
Radius
Ulna
What is the maximum heart rate of a 16-year-old person?
204
what happens in aerobic respiratory system during exercise?
Glucose + oxygen → energy + water + carbon dioxide
Why is a person less likely to strain a muscle if they have warmed up before taking part in exercise?
Warming up increases the temperature of the muscles which makes them more pliable and therefore more likely to stretch rather than tear.
