Answer: increase

Flashcard 2: Enlargement of skeletal muscles in athletes is an example of physiological _____.

Answer: hypertrophy (hyperplasia/hypertrophy)

Flashcard 3: Exercise adaptation at high altitudes:_____ pH inhibits brain stem and reduces maximal exercise effort

Answer: Increased

Flashcard 4: Signals from _____ play a role in stimulating the respiratory drive during exercise.

Answer: joint proprioceptors

Flashcard 5: During rest, blood flow through skeletal muscle averages _____ mL/min/100 g of muscle.

Answer: 3 to 4

Flashcard 6: In an athlete, during exercise, the arterial pO2 will _____

Answer: remain the same

Flashcard 7: During the early stages of exercise, cardiac output is maintained by increased _____ and stroke volume

Answer: heart rate

Flashcard 8: Blood flow _____ to the kidneys, liver, and GIT during exercise.

Answer: decreases

Extra: During exercise, blood flow to the kidneys, liver, and gastrointestinal tract (GIT) decreases due to sympathetic-mediated vasoconstriction. In contrast, blood flow to active skeletal muscles increases significantly due to local metabolic factors (autoregulation).

Flashcard 9: McArdle index is the _____ rate

Answer: sweat

Extra: McArdle's Index is also known as the **Predicted 4-hour Sweat Rate (P4SR)**. It is an index used to assess environmental heat stress.
