Development of the Respiratory System

Description
Exercise and the Respiratory System

The respiratory and cardiovascular systems make adjustments in response to both the intensity and duration of exercise
As cardiac output rises, the blood flow to the lungs, termed pulmonary perfusion, increases as well
The O2 diffusing capacity may increase threefold during maximal exercise so there is a greater surface area available for O2 diffusion
