Study Notes

Blood Flow and Lung Function

  • Blood vessels dilate to enhance oxygen transportation during exercise.
  • Increased lung activity is necessary to fulfill heightened oxygen demands of the body during physical exertion.

Heart Rate During Light Activity

  • Heart rates are generally low when engaging in casual activities, like walking and laughing with friends.

Energy Conversion

  • Physical exercise leads to the transformation of stored chemical energy into usable energy for muscle movement.

Breathing Changes During Exercise

  • Both the rate and depth of breathing rise significantly during exercise to supply the body with adequate oxygen.

Modifying Activity for Heart Rate

  • To maintain a safe heart rate while hiking, individuals should consider slowing down their pace, especially if struggling to converse.
