Question

why does an athlete breath faster and deeper than usual after finishing the race ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

When the athlete runs in the race, his body needs more oxygen. His rate of breathing increases so that more oxygen can be supplied to the body. This is the reason, an athlete needs to breathe faster and deeper than usual; after finishing the race.

Answer 2

Required Answer:

☑ During the run, the energy demand is high, but the oxygen supply to produce energy is limited. Therefore, anaerobic respiration takes places in the muscle cells to fulfil the energy demand. After finishing the race, an athlete breathes faster and deeper than usual to supply more oxygen to the cells.
