If you exercise 3-4 days a week, your lung capacity grows allowing you to exercise for longer periods of time. When you do an aerobic exercise, your heart and lungs work harder to get more oxygen around the body. Your lungs take oxygen in and then pass it on to your heart which then passes the oxygen onto your blood vessels to circulate the oxygen around the body. The oxygen is usually taken to the muscles in the limbs (Arms and Legs) to help keep them moving.

What effect would exercise have on the respretory system you identified in the previous question?

Exercise has a significant positive effect on the respiratory system. It enhances lung capacity and efficiency by increasing the volume of air exchanged during breathing, which improves oxygen intake and carbon dioxide expulsion. Regular physical activity strengthens the respiratory muscles, including the diaphragm, and promotes better overall lung function. Additionally, it can lead to increased endurance and improved gas exchange in the alveoli, benefiting overall cardiovascular health.
