Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A trained athlete has a resting ventilation rate of 12 breaths per minute. After intense cycling, their ventilation rate increases to 40 breaths per minute. Discuss the physiological significance of this increase, and what might occur if their ventilation rate did not rise adequately during exercise.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think of the role of oxygen in endurance and the risks of hypoxia.

Question 2

Consider a situation where an endurance runner experiences shortness of breath during a race due to inadequate ventilation increase. Discuss potential physiological mechanisms that could explain this phenomenon.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how bodily signals help regulate breathing.
