- Physical Exercise
- Increases respiration rate
- More CO2 produced
- Higher demand for O2
- Excitement and Sudden Fear
- Adrenaline release
- Increases breathing rate
- Elevated CO2 Levels in Blood
- Stimulates the medulla oblongata
- Increases respiration rate
- Lower CO2 Levels in Blood
- Reduces breathing rate as more O2 reaches cells
Effects of Exercise on Breathing:
- Breathing involves air intake and expulsion from the lungs.
- Influenced by temperature, health, exercise, emotions, and age.
- Exercise increases muscle energy demands, requiring more O2 and glucose (C6H12O6).
- CO2 is produced as a byproduct
