Figure 1.
Factors governing whole-body oxygen transport. A. The pathway for oxygen from air to mitochondrial in peripheral skeletal muscle is illustrated. B. Diagram illustrates the four main physiological mechanisms driving recruitment of cardiac power and output in exercise: positive inotropy; positive chronotropy; systemic vasoconstriction; and local metabolic-mediated vasodilation. Diagram in Panel A adapted from Weibel.
