Aerobic respiration and exerciseBATs

Recall that aerobic respiration provides energy for work (E)

Explain how glucose and oxygen are supplied to respiring cells and how carbon is removed. (C/D)

Explain how heart rate and breathing rate increase with exercise. (D)

StarterWhat do you need to get

energy (respire)?

What do you give off as waste products of getting energy?

What do we breathe in and out?

• Try the experiment with the suck/blow tubes.

• Limewater goes cloudy when it is mixed with Carbon dioxide.

• Take care – Limewater is corrosive – you will need goggles and do not suck in the limewater.

• Which has the most CO2 in it? Air we breathe in or air we breathe out?

Food Oxygen

Breathing system

Digestive system

BLOODBLOOD

These substances eventually

arrive at the body cells

Aerobic RespirationEvery cell in the body carries out respiration

to provide organs with energy.

Glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide +H2O +

The glucose and oxygen needed for respiration are carried to the cells in the blood.

Carbon dioxide and water are removed from the cell into the bloodstream and go to the lungs to be exhaled.

How does exercise affect our breathing rate?

You will need:

Stopwatch

1. Sit still and quiet for a few minutes

2. Count how many times you take a breath for 30 seconds, double it (breathing rate)

3. Exercise for 1 minute, then retake your breathing rate. Record your result.

4. What do you notice? Why does this happen

The heart

• The heart is a pump made of muscle.

• It needs to pump blood to the lungs to collect oxygen and dump carbon dioxide

• It then has to pump blood rich in oxygen (oxygenated blood) and glucose around the body.

• Look at the model heart to see how it is able to do this

How does exercise affect our heart rate?

You will need:

stopwatches

1. Sit still and quiet for a few minutes

2. Use the stopwatches to find your resting heart rate (beats per minute)

3. Exercise for 1 minute, then retake your heart rate. Record your result.

1. Sit still and quiet for a few minutes

2. Use the heart monitors to find your resting heart rate (beats per minute)

3. Exercise for 1 minute, then retake your heart rate. Record your result.

4. Rest and repeat for 3 mins (then 6 minutes) of exercise
