Fig. 4. Values obtained for
O2,
E,
E/O2
and
PAO2—PaO2
during rest, exercise and recovery in V. mertensi. Changes in
O2 were closely
matched by changes in E
such that
E/O2
was maintained.
PAO2—PaO2
was maintained at resting values during exercise and the first 2 min of
recovery. Values are means ± 1 S.D. (N=5).
*Significant difference from the value at rest.
