Short term muscular and skeletal responses to exercise
1. Identify the short-term responses to exercise that occur in the skeletal and muscular systems.
2. Identify and explain two short term/acute responses to exercise of the muscular and skeletal system.
Type your answer in the box then check your answer against the model answer.
2 marks for writing any 2 of the following:
- Heat produced as muscles contract leading to increased muscle temperature.
- Increased elasticity of muscles and joints resulting from increase temperature.
- Increased range of motion around the joints.
- During high intensity (anaerobic) exercise lactic acid builds up because of an insufficient amount of oxygen to complete aerobic processes.
