- Why lunge is good for you?arrow_forwardDaniel, the swimmer with the fastest time on the college swim team, routinely hyperventilates before a meet, as he says "to sock some more oxygen into my lungs so I can swim longer without having to breathe." "Furthermore, my heart won't have to adjust it's output". Which organ(s) would actually require more oxygen that Daniel may not be realizing? Why so?arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between respiration and breathing; please write an essay.How much does the sky weigh?What makes a rainbow?Why don't birds get electrocuted when they land on an electric wire?That is all, thank you!arrow_forward
- Why do you think a person is able to perform anaerobic exercise (such as lifting and holding a heavy weight) only briefly but can sustain aerobic exercise (such as walking or swimming) for long periods? (Hint: Muscles have limited energy stores.)arrow_forwardThe respiratory system_______. a. provides body tissues with oxygen b. provides body tissues with oxygen and carbon dioxide c. establishes how many breaths are taken per minute d. provides the body with carbon dioxidearrow_forwardFigure 16.9 Which of the following statements about the human respiratory system is false? a. When we breathe in, air travels from the pharynx to the trachea. b. The bronchioles branch into bronchi. c. Alveolar ducts connect to alveolar sacs. d.
