Document Summary

Define heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output and venous return. Number of contractions of the heart per minute. Volume of blood pumped out with each contraction of the heart. Volume of blood pumped out by the heart per minute. Volume of blood returning to the heart via the veins per minute. Explain the changes in cardiac output and venous return during exercise. The cardiac output is a product of both heart rate and stroke volume (co = Exercise increases the production of carbon dioxide by respiring cells, which lowers the ph of the blood. Detection of lowered blood ph causes impulses to be sent by the brain to the pacemaker, which increases cardiac output by: Increasing heart rate (more contractions per minute) Increasing stroke volume (due to greater contractile force of the cardiac muscle) Contraction of muscles used during exercise squeezes blood in adjacent veins, increasing venous return (which increases stroke volume)

You need to know that there is 13.3 g hemoglobin/100 ml blood, and1.3
ml O2 binds to each gram of hemoglobin. Assume arterial blood is100%
saturated with oxygen, whereas mixed venous blood is 60%saturated
when the subject is resting.

Now answer these questions:

1. By what multiplication factor (e.g. 2 times, 3 times, etc.)did oxygen consumption
increase over resting when the person exercised?
2. a. Did minute volume increase by the same factor that oxygenconsumption
increased? If not, what made up the difference?
b. Did cardiac output increase by the same factor that oxygenconsumption
increased? If not, what made up the difference?
3. What was most responsible for the change in minute volume? i.e.compare the
factorial change in breathing rate with that of tidal volume.
4. What was most responsible for the change in cardiac output? i.e.compare the
factorial change in heart rate with that of stroke volume.
5. Calculate total peripheral resistance during rest and exercise(see pg 21). What
physiological changes led to the change in peripheral resistance?In what part of the
body did they occur, and why is this adaptive?

Ryan Runner is a track athlete who has recently been selected to compete at the 2010 Commonwealth Games. At rest, his heart rate is 50 beats per minute, and his stroke volume is 110 mL. During competition, Ryanâs heart rate increases to 200 beats per minute, and his cardiac output increases 6-fold.

a)Explain how the distribution of cardiac output to the skeletal muscle changes during intense exercise, and the mechanism by which this occurs.

b)Briefly explain how the O2 levels in Ryanâs muscles change during a race. What mechanisms does the body use to meet this altered demand for O2 during exercise?

c)Itâs the day of the 800m final at the Commonwealth Games. Ryan is nervous about the upcoming race, causing his adrenal glands to increase their secretion of adrenaline. Which receptor subtype binds adrenaline at the liver? d)Name TWO (2) effects this would have on the liver.

Question 5. Dr. Campbell used an elliptical trainer for 40 minutes at the gym. Although the workload remained constant, Dr. Campbellâs heart-rate rose to 150 beats per minute during the first 5 minutes, stayed at that level for the next 25 minutes and then started to rise. It was 180 beats per minute at the end of the exercise period.

What was the time interval between QRS complexes when Dr. Campbellâs heart rate was 180 beats per minute?

a. 3.3 ms

b. 33 ms

c. 333 ms

d. 3333 ms

Question 6. In the question 5 above, Dr. Campbellâs heart rate is most likely to have risen during the last 10 minutes of exercise because his:

a. lungs were becoming congested

b. atrial cells were fatigued

c. extracellular Ca2+ concentration had increased

d. hematocrit increased due to sweating

Question 7. A Physiology student is sitting still in a cold igloo. After 30 minutes, she stands up, walks slowly around the igloo, and suddenly starts to shiver.

The student preserved their core temperature while they were sitting by:

a. depressing their Frank-Starling mechanism

b. decreasing the extracellular Ca2+ concentration

c. relaxing smooth muscles in their peripheral circulation

d. increasing the resistance of arterioles in their arms and legs

Question 8. In the question 7 above, the student started to shiver soon after walking because:

a. their atria started to fibrillate

b. their ventricles started to fibrillate

c. blood moved to the periphery, became cold, and chilled the core when it returned to the chest

d. the ATP concentration in their skeletal muscles had dropped to zero

Please use the following scenario for answering the questions 9 and 10.

A newly discovered drug binds to myosin molecules in cardiac muscle (and nowhere else) and increases the probability that myosin molecules in ventricular cells will bind to actin filaments when the intracellular Ca2+ concentration rises. The drug is being tested as a potential therapy for patients with heart failure.

Question 9. This drug might help people who have low cardiac output by:

a. increasing peripheral resistance

b. increasing the force developed by ventricular cells

c. increasing the isovolumic contraction time

d. increasing heart rate

Question 10. The increased binding of cardiac myosin molecules to actin might prevent the drug from being a useful treatment by:

a. slowing ventricular relaxation

b. decreasing the duration of systole

c. decreasing resistance of capillaries

d. slowing heart rate
