Key word Definition
0 Gaseous exchange:0 Alveoli:0 Intercostal muscles0 Sternum:
0 The chest or breastbone.0 The process where oxygen is
taken in from the air and exchanged for carbon dioxide.
0 Small air sacs in the lungs where gaseous exchange takes place.
0 Abdominal muscles in-between the ribs which assist in the process of breathing.

Gaseous exchange:
The action of breathingRe-order sentences to make sense:0 As this is happening, the intercostal muscles raise the ribs
up and push out the sternum, which makes the cavity larger.0 The air we are actually breathing in is high in oxygen and
nitrogen but low in carbon dioxide.0 This serves to reduce the pressure inside the chest cavity
and causes air to be sucked into the lungs.0 When we breath in, the chest cavity changes shape and size
– the diaphragm changes from a dome shape as it flattens and moves downwards.
0 When we breathe out the reverse process occurs but the air breathed out is high in nitrogen and carbon dioxide as the full process of gaseous exchange has taken place.

Aerobic respiration:
0Summarised as:0 Respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen.0 Glucose + oxygen = energy (+ carbon dioxide + water)
0 Used when the body continues to exercise for a long period of time.
0 When the energy to do so is produced using oxygen.0 To work efficiently, there has to be a constant supply of
oxygen.0 Important for any activity going to be performed for
sustained period of time.
Breathing rate:
Facts: Challenge:
0Breathing rate increases greatly when we exercise. It can increase up to three times the rate when we are at rest.
0Count breaths per minute at rest.
0Run on the spot for 2 minutes.
0Count breathing rate.
0Any difference?

0Question: Explain what happens to breathing rate when we exercise. (2 marks)
0Answer: It gets bigger

Grade the answers:
0Question: Explain gaseous exchange (1 mark)
0Answer: This is the process where oxygen is taken in from the air and exchanged for carbon dioxide. This is necessary as we need a constant supply of oxygen in our body but don’t require carbon dioxide as it’s a waste product.

0Question: What is aerobic respiration (3 marks)
0Answer: This is respiration that occurs when oxygen is present. It is important for short activities, like shot putt.
