A-LEVEL PE (OCR): PAPER 1 - Recovery, Altitude and Heat

These flashcards explain key concepts related to oxygen use during and after exercise, including EPOC (Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption), oxygen deficit, and the two stages of recovery. They highlight how the body restores itself to a pre-exercise state and compensates for oxygen demands during physical activity.

A-LEVEL PE (OCR): PAPER 1 - Cardiovascular & Respiratory System Part 2

This flashcard set covers fundamental concepts in cardiovascular and respiratory physiology, including vasodilation, pre-capillary sphincter function, the effect of temperature on venous return and cardiac output, and the active or passive nature of inspiration and expiration at rest and during exercise.

A-LEVEL PE (OCR): Cardiovascular & Respiratory System Part 1

This deck covers key concepts related to the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, including definitions, pathways, and physiological processes.

A-LEVEL PE (OCR): PAPER 1 - The Muscular System Part 2

This flashcard set lists the primary agonist muscles responsible for key movements at the knee and ankle joints: biceps femoris for knee flexion, rectus femoris for knee extension, gastrocnemius and soleus for ankle plantarflexion, and tibialis anterior for ankle dorsiflexion.

A-LEVEL PE (OCR): PAPER 1 - The Muscular System Part 1

This deck covers key concepts and definitions related to the muscular system, including types of muscle contractions, movements, and the muscles involved in specific joint actions.

3MB Psychiatry: Neurobiology of Cognition

This flashcard set outlines the key functions of the frontal lobe, including movement, executive function, personality, and language. It also describes specific clinical tests for frontal lobe function, such as verbal fluency and the Luria step test.
