Question
Consider the graph below showing the effect of altitude on ventilation rate in 25 healthy,
non-smoking males after different exercise intensities.
Ventilation rate / dm³ min-1
601
50-
40-
30-
20-
10-
0+
PREGNALI DOM
Sea level
4000 m
Key:
rest
20% of maximal aerobic power
30% of maximal aerobic power
40% of maximal aerobic power
a. Identify the independent and dependent variables. [1]
b. Compare and contrast the effect of increasing exercise intensity at sea level and at an
altitude of 4000 m. Refer specifically to the graph. [2]
C.
At 4000m the availability of oxygen is lower than at sea level. Explain why the pattern
seen in ventilation rate occurs by referring to external respiration. [2]
