What else can I help you with?
What are the two adaptations that high altitude animals often have?
Nine toes and an external lung
In higher altitude what happens to your breathing?
Your breathing can become laboured due to your smaller lung capacity in high altitudes.
What are the benefits of altitude?
Long distance runners who train at high altitude develop greater lung capacity relative to those who train at or near sea level. Consequently, when these high altitude runners compete with runners from lower altitudes, they have an advantage regardless of whether they compete at lower or higher altitudes.
Lung problems with arthritisis it common to have a lesion on a lung with rheumatiod arthritis?
R A can cause problems with lung tisue.
What is high-altitude cerebral edema?
High-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) is a life-threatening condition that afflicts a small percentage of those who suffer from AMS. In this condition, fluid leaks from within the pulmonary blood vessels into the lung tissue.
Can lung problems cause bad body crAmps?
Can lung problems cause you to have severe muscle cramps
How do you put the word altitude into a sentence?
Cake mixes contain special directions for use in high altitudes. Many marathon runners train at high altitudes to ensure optimal lung functioning in competitions. The pilot announced to the passengers and flight crew that the plane had reached a comfortable flying altitude.
What differences do you find between the lifestyle of people live in on high altitude and low altitude?
People living at high altitudes may experience lower oxygen levels, leading to adaptations like increased lung capacity and red blood cell production. They may also have to deal with extreme temperature variations, while those at low altitudes typically experience more stable temperatures. Additionally, people at high altitudes may have different cultural practices and diets shaped by their environment.
What Dificulties faced by climber an altitude?
Oxygen and lung failure which leads to fainting.
Who does a permanent move from sea level to a high altitude effect red blood cell count?
Hemostasis would increase the number of RBCs in circulation to allow for enough transport of oxygen. This also happens in smokers, (to compensate for the loss of functional lung surface) when smokers move to high altitude, they have less "buffer" to compensate. Populations living in high altitudes have developed a number of adaptations to cope with the lack of oxygen (compared to sea level). Among which increased lung capacity and more effective red blood cells.
Why do sprinters prefer to compete at high altitudes?
An athlete training at a high altitude will perform better than one who trains at a low altitude because of increased lung capacity. At a higher altitude there is less oxygen, so an athlete that trains at a higher altitude will use air more efficiently.
Why are my oxygen levels low?
Low oxygen levels can be caused by various conditions such as lung diseases (e.g. asthma, COPD), heart problems, anemia, high altitude, or even COVID-19. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and diagnosis to determine the underlying cause of your low oxygen levels.
