... Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen. In humans it is used to release energy from glucose when more energy is needed than can be supplied by aerobic respiration (for example, during strenuous exercise). glucose → lactic acid Anaerobic respiration causes muscles to tire quickly and so cannot ...

... This will also help strengthen respiratory muscles as this increase in lung volume will aid lung inflation. Endurance training will also increase the capillarisation around alveoli in the lungs. This helps to increase the amount of gas exchange in the lungs and therefore, increase the amount of oxyg ...

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.
