Answer |
| carotid bodies | monitor the state of arterial blood just before it perfuses the brain |
| neurogenic factors for ventilatory control: | 1)cortical influence2)peripheral influence(pg. 297) |
| ventilatory equivalent | the ratio of minute ventilation to oxygen consumption |
| ventilatory threshold | the point at which pulmonary ventilation increases disproportionately with oxygen consumption during graded exercise |
| lactate threshold | the highest oxygen consumption or exercise intensity achieved with less than a 1.0 mM increase in blood lactate concentration above the preexercise level |
| onset of blood lactate accumulation (OBLA) | when blood lactate concentration systematically increases to 4.0 mM |
| 2 factors that influence endurance performance in a specific exercise mode: | 1)maximum capacity to consume oxygen (VO2max)2)maximum level for steady rate exercise (OBLA) |
| exercise-induced arterial hypoxemia (EIH) | when the potential for inequality in alveolar ventilation relative to pulmonary capillary blood flow during high-intensity exercise may compromise arterial saturation and oxygen transport capacity (pg. 307) |
| bicarbonate buffer | consists of the weak acid, CARBONIC ACID and its salt, SODIUM BICARBONATE |
| alkaline reserve | buffer reserve |
