What else can I help you with?
Why cant you run for as long if you have less oxygen in your blood?
because your blood carries oxygen to you muscles. without much oxygen blood won't be able to take lots to your muscles, and with little oxygen your muscles won't work as well and therefore you won't run as quickly :)
Does giving blood reduce stamina?
Temporarily, yes. Giving blood means that you lose some of your red blood cells, which are what carries oxygen from the lungs and to the muscles. With less cells to carry oxygen, your muscles will have less to work with and you will get out breath faster. Blood cells are constantly replenished however, so you'll be back to level pretty soon.
How do blood and oxygen work together in the body when you are running?
When you are running, your muscles are working extra hard. Therefore, they need more oxygen and glucose than normal, since it is the chemical reaction between these two that produces energy for work. The blood is pumped to the lungs for more oxygen and to the liver for more glucose. (Glucose is stored in the liver.) Blood flow to the working muscles is increased in order to deliver these two, and to carry away carbon dioxide and heat that are produced as wastes.
Why do your pulse rate increase when you are running?
Your muscles need oxygen to work and oxygen is carried through the blood, propelled by the heart. When you run, you use muscles and your heart beats faster to increase the amount of oxygen reaching the muscles being used.
Why is having more red blood cells allows some athletes to compete at a better level?
red blood cells carry oxygen around the body, oxygen allows your body to break down glucose to form energy. The more red blood cells, the more oxygen reaches your body's cells and therefore your cells have more potential to produce energy therefore they can work more and thus you can move faster
Why will your heart beat faster after you run?
- Muscles require oxygen to function - When running, you are working muscles - Blood carries oxygen, the heart pumps blood When running, as the muscles require more oxygen to work harder, the heart must pump blood around your body quicker, delivering more oxygen to the muscles that require it. The way that the heart does this is to increase heart rate.
Why does the heart beat faster when exerciseing?
As you exercise, the muscles need more oxygen to work. The heart beats faster to get the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the muscles. The harder you exercise, the more oxygen the muscles need, the faster the heart beats.
Why is a red blood cell good for you?
your body needs red blood cells to survive, red blood cells have a particular job, they Carry oxygen through your bloodstream to all your muscles and flesh. your muscles and flesh need oxygen to work properly (this is why when you cross your legs, sometimes your legs feel funny) they also make your blood look red, which doesn't help you at all, but wouldn't you look weird if whenever you got a cut you bled clear? :)
How does exercise change muscle strength?
It allows your muscles to work there for allowing more blood and oxygen to help them get less fatigued
How does the muscular system help the circulatory?
the heart pumps blood and oxygen to the muscles so they work!
Why does your heartbeat increase when excercising?
Like many people know, you heart pumps blood to your lungs where the red blood cells pick up oxygen then continues to take the oxygen to your muscles. Your muscles pulls out the oxygen, uses it and puts carbon dioxide in the red blood cells where your heart pumps it back to your lungs to drop off the CO2 where the cycle repeats. When you strain your muscles they need more oxygen so your heart has to work harder to get more oxygen to your muslces.
What organs work together with the Skeletal System to work properly?
muscles and tendons with the nerves to control them and the blood to supply oxygen and energy and remove waste
