Respiratory system
Exercise
The body needs more oxygen to feed working muscles when exercising. This is why we breath more heavily and a lot more often when we are exercising.
Exercising helps to grow our chest cavity, increasing the amount of air we are able to take in.
Exercising forms more capillaries around the air sacs making the transition of the o2 and co2 from the blood to the air sacs a lot quicker.
Parts of the system
Nostrils and nose
-
Hairs called cilia protect the respiratory system from possible dust and pollen particles that may be trying to get in.
-

-
-
-
-
-
-
When oxygen is passed from the alveoli to the air sacs, it is released into the blood stream.
At the same time, carbon dioxide is passed from the bloodstream into the air sacs. It is then breathed out of the body.

Exercise
Blood pressure
-
Each time that the heart pumps, blood is pushed through the aterial system with force
-
-
Diastolic pressure measures the time after the ventricles contract and the chambers of the heart are refilling with blood (during diastole).

Cardio Vascular system
-
Keeps us alive
-
oxygen poor blood is transferred from the right side of the heart to the lungs, through the pulminary arteries, where it is refreshed
-
Heart
-
-
-
-
-
background facts
-
-
-
The heart beats around 100,000 times per day
-

-
Main arteries
-
-
Renal artery
delivers oxygenated blood with a high level of urea to the kidneys so that it can be cleaned/filtered.
-
Main veins
-
-
-
Hepatic vein
carries blood with a regulated amount of nutrients, from the liver into circulation.
-
-
Nose
warms, moistens and filters the air

-
Chemoreception: detection of chemical stimuli, perceived as smell
-
Eyes
parts
-
iris
muscles control the iris right behind the cornea that contracts and relaxes causing the pupil to grow and shrink
-

-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
Photoreception: detection of light, perceived as sight.
-
Endocrine system
Hormones
-
-
-
-
-
Exocrine glands: salivary glands, sweat glands
-
-
specific effects
target a second gland, causing it to release its hormones
-
-
feedback mechanism
A stimulus creates a change that is detected by a receptor (sensor), this sends a signal to the control centre, which coordinates a response and sends a signal (communication through hormones or nerves) to the effector which then responds (does something) to return the body to homeostasis.

-
Homeostasis
-
-
To maintain homeostasis, systems must
-
-
The process of maintaining a constant internal environment when faced with changing external conditions
-
-
Nervous system
Neurons
specialised cells/nerves
transmit messages
-
to, from and within CENTRAL nervous system

Tongue
Eat
-
moves food around the mouth while you chew, pushing food to the back teeth.
-
Taste
papillae
-
contain taste buds
the average person contains 10, 000 taste buds
detects sweet, sour, salty and bitter
-
Talking
The front of the tongue is flexible and is used to create a variety of sounds that are used to talk.

LEVERS

-
-
in the body, a lever is made up of the following (most are third class)
-

Levers

-
velocity ratio
the ratio of a distance through which any part of a machine moves to that which the driving part moves during the same time.

Injuries
Inflammation
-
-
-
types of inflammation
-
chronic
-
-
occurs when the body reacts in order to fight off a foreign substance but there is actually nothing there which causes the body to destroy its own tissue.
ACL Injury
-
how
commonly occur during sports that involve sudden stops or changes in direction, jumping and landing
soccer, basketball, football and downhill skiing.
-
-
-
Ligaments and tendons
Why?
-
-
-
Lack of, or improper training
Can occur when our bodies are put under forces or stresses which they were not designed to cope with.
Ears
-
Mechano-reception: detection of vibration, perceived as hearing
-
Skin
-
Mechano-reception: detection of pressure, perceived as touch.
