8. Accumulation of metabolic by-products in muscle (H+, CO2, heat) leads to
a. vasoconstriction.
b. vasodilation.
c. sympathetic activation.
d. reduced muscle blood flow.
9. During a grated exercise until the point of ventilator threshold (VT) occurring,
a. pulmonary ventilation (VE) increases proportionally to exercise intensity increase.
b. pulmonary ventilation (VE) increases disproportionally to exercise intensity increase.
