Question

explain why the breathing rate of a person remains high for a few minutes after they have finished exercising​

Answer 1

During exercise there is an increase in physical activity and muscle cells respire more than they do when the body is at rest. The heart rate increases during exercise. The rate and depth of breathing increases - this makes sure that more oxygen is absorbed into the blood, and more carbon dioxide is removed from it.During exercise there is an increase in physical activity and muscle cells respire more than they do when the body is at rest.
