Is it true of false that the more oxygen you need the more slowly you breath?
False. The more oxygen you need, the more quickly you breathe. That is whit your breathe faster when you exercise.
Why do you breath very quickly after exercise?
Because when you work your muscles they need more oxygen, and to get more oxygen you need to breathe more often.
Why is water loss reduced in the lungs in hot weather yet it is the highest in long heavy exercise?
You breathe more quickly/ often when you are doing heavy exercise but not necessarily when the weather is warmer. I think we are doing the same assignment :)
When you exercise your body needs more so you breathe faster?
oxygen
Why do you breathe faster after excersise?
Your body needs more oxygen after and during exercise.
Is it true that cardiovascular exercise causes your lungs to breathe less often?
No. Cardiovascular exercise, also known as aerobic exercise, causes you to breath more.
Why do you breathe faster when you exercise?
because when you exercise your muscles require more oxygen so your heart will beat faster to get the oxygen to the mucsles. since your blood goes through the lungs and your heart is beating faster you must breathe faster to get a sufficient amount of oxygen.
What happens when you exercise?
when you breathe, you need oxygen more quickly. this is because your muscles are working more and harder and to provide energy for them to do this, oxygen is needed to complete the equation for cellular respiration. and, because more oxygen is needed, the heart pumps faster to send more red blood cells to collect more oxygen from the lungs and to the body parts. Nonetheless, we do not breathe more quickly because we need to inhale oxygen. we breathe quickly because we need to exhale the carbon dioxide which is a bi-product of the process of cellular respiration. we breath according to our carbon dioxide levels in our lungs. hence, when we exercise, the breathing rate increases as we need to exhale more carbon dioxide which was a result of taking in more oxygen. the heart pumps faster to circulate the oxygen around the body faster and provide the muscles with enough energy. hope this helped...
Why should you breathe out your mouth during exercise rather than your nose?
Because you exhale more air through your mouth which is more appropriate for an increased level of exercise.
Why does exercise make you breathe faster when you are unfit?
You would breathe faster because your musles are not used to the exercise, and require more oxygen. because at a speed or position when your body is moving that is different than it is normally you breathe faster. Oh by the way I am 78% sure I am right about this answer
Cardiovascular exercise causes your lungs to breathe less often?
False - If you are exercising, you are breathing more.
Why do you pant when you exercise?
During exercise, your body uses energy. This process requires oxygen. So, if you exercise you pant, or breathe harder, in order for your body to draw in more oxygen.
