The Respiratory System
The Respiratory System

... When our bodies respire anaerobically during vigorous exercise, supplies of oxygen are reduced to working muscles. As there is an absence of oxygen, the body can only respire anaerobically for a maximum of 60 seconds. During an anaerobic event such as the 100m sprint or a 50m freestyle event in swim ...

Organisms at high altitude



Organisms can live at high altitude, either on land, or while flying. Decreased oxygen availability and decreased temperature make life at high altitude challenging. Despite these environmental conditions, many species have been successfully adapted at high altitudes. Animals have developed physiological adaptations to enhance oxygen uptake and delivery to tissues which can be used to sustain metabolism. The strategies used by animals to adapt to high altitude depend on their morphology and phylogeny.
