Q

platelets

A
  • bits of cells broken off larger cells
  • produce tiny fibrinogen fibres to form a net , this net trraps other blood cells to form a BLOOD CLOT

19
Q

hypertension

A

high blood pressure, wjhen your blood pressure in your blood vessels is too high

20
Q

atherosclerosis

A

thickening/hardening of arteries which are caused by a buildup of plaque in the inner lining of the artery

20
Q

arteriosclerosis

A

when the arteries get thick and hard, making it harder for blood flow to flow through them

21
Q

coronary heart disease

A

a coindition where the blood vessels supplying the heart with oxygen and nutrients become narrow/blocked,often due to the buildness of plaque.

22
Q

stroke

A

occurs when soimething bklocks thge blood supply to a part of the brain,or.. when a bloods vessel in the brain bursts

23
Q

heart murmur

A

a whooshing or swishing sound heard during as heartbeat ofte caused by turbuence blood flow in the heart or blood vessles

24
varicose veins
swollen, twisted veins that lie just under the skin, caused by weakened oir damaged vein walls and faulty valves
25
altitude training
enhances endurance and increases EPO production
26
caffeine
as stimlant which increases alertness
27
alcohol
impairs motor coordination
28
cannabis
erffects vary on the indiviudal impairs concentration
29
carbo loading
increases muscvle mass but leads to diarhhea
30
blood doping
increasesw RBC mass and enhyances aerobic capacity
31
trtaining masks
mimicks higth altiutiude training
32
external respiration
the exchange of O2 and CO2 between the alveoli in the lungs and the blood
33
internal respiration
the exchange of O2 and CO2 between the blood and the body cellas
34
tidal volume
the amount of air inhaled or exhal;ed in one breath
35
vital capacity
themax amount of air that can be exhaled after a max inhalation
36
minute ventilation
the amount of airt inhaled or exhaled in one minute
37
factors effecting resting respiratory efficiency
1. exercise 2. smoking 3. respiratory disease 4. temperature 5. atmosphoric pressure 6. genetics
38
VO2 max
the greatest rate at which oxygen can be consumed during exercise
39
limiting factors of vo2 max
1. external respiration 2. gas transport 3. internal respiration
40
cp system
alactic system creastine phosphate is the fuel source
41
lactic system
anaerobic glycolysis system glucose is usually the fuel souce
42
aerobic system
aerobic glyocolysis system glucose, fats and prtein as fuel source
43
lactate threshold
the exercise intensity at which lactic acid bulds up in the blood
