Question

Describe how tidal volume and breathing rate link to oxygen uptake and explain the importance of the change in tidal volume and breathing rate during exercise.

Accepted Answer

Tidal volume, breathing rate and oxygen uptake:Greater tidal volume - more air moves into lungs - more oxygen uptakeGreater breathing rate - ventilation increases therefore oxygen uptake also increasesImportant to meet demands of tissues when exercising bc they will produce more CO2 and demand more O2
