10 Questions
What contributes to the increase in cardiac output during exercise in the upright position?
Increase in stroke volume
At what workload does stroke volume not appreciably increase in untrained or moderately trained individuals?
40% - 60% VO2max
How is the rise in cardiac output achieved at work rates greater than 40% - 60% VO2max in untrained or moderately trained individuals?
Increases in heart rate alone
For whom are the examples of maximal heart rate, stroke volume, and cardiac output provided?
Untrained or moderately trained college-age males
During maximal exercise, how is the distribution of cardiac output altered compared to rest?
Redistributed to non-active tissues
At what point does stroke volume significantly increase during exercise?
Beyond 60% VO2max
How does cardiac output rise during exercise beyond a certain intensity in untrained individuals?
Mainly through an increase in heart rate alone
'Redistribution of blood flow during exercise' refers to:
'An alteration of blood flow from active to non-active tissues during exercise'
'Redistribution of blood flow during maximal exercise' implies that:
'Blood flow increases compared to rest'
'Distribution of cardiac output during rest' indicates that:
'Cardiac output is distributed equally among tissues during rest'
