Thermoreceptors - Detect changes in temperature, Chemoreceptors - Detect changes in chemical composition of the blood/blood pH, Adrenaline - Increases heart rate/blood pressure/breathing rate/dilates air passages/bronchioles, Response - An immediate/acute change to the body systems due to starting exercise, Adaptation - A chronic change to the body systems due to regular training, Golgi tendon organ/GTOs - They provide information to the CNS about the muscle tension, Muscle Spindles - They provide information to the CNS about the length of the muscle, Thermoreceptor - Monitors body temperature., Acetylcholine - To transmit signals from the nervous system to the muscle fibres., DOMS - Microtears in the muscle fibres, Vo2 Max - Volume of oxygen consumed/utilised/uptake, Sinoatrial node - Structure within the heart that controls the cardiac cycle., Baroreceptors. - Detect changes in blood pressure, Proprioceptor - sensory receptors found in muscles, tendons, and joints that provide the brain with information, Anticipatory Rise - Increased breathing rate before exercise. , Minute Volume (VE) - Breathing rate X Tidal volume, Oxygen Dissociation Curve - Relationship between percentage of oxygen in the blood and the partial pressure of the oxygen., Cardiac Output - Volume of blood pumped out the heart in 1 minute, Stroke Volume - Amount of blood pumped by the left ventricle in one contraction, Starling's Law - Greater the stretch of cardiac muscle, the greater the force of contraction,
