These drugs have also sedative action, reduce body temperature and oxygen consumption.
The most precise measure of intensity is oxygen consumption (V0).
During exercise, oxygen consumption can increase by a factor of more than 10.
It was known that stimulation caused the heart to increase its oxygen consumption.
While in this state, body temperature drops, and oxygen consumption falls to just 1% of normal.
Heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen consumption were also measured.
As expected, the researchers found that oxygen consumption went up when arms were added to the exercise regimen.
There can be differences in oxygen consumption between sexes of the same organism.
"Check out the oxygen consumption on board during the past two hours!"
Running economy takes into consideration one's body mass and oxygen consumption at a steady state within his aerobic range.
