What happens at the beginning of an exercise session regarding oxygen use?

  1. Your body uses more oxygen than at rest

  2. Your body immediately adapts to the increased activity

  3. Your body does not have the required amount of oxygen to maintain homeostasis

  4. Oxygen consumption is at its lowest

The correct answer is: Your body does not have the required amount of oxygen to maintain homeostasis

At the beginning of an exercise session, our body experiences an increase in oxygen demand to support the increased physical activity. This demand exceeds the available oxygen supply, leading to a temporary oxygen deficit. Oxygen consumption is not at its lowest as our body needs more oxygen to meet the demands of the physical activity. Option A is incorrect because the increase in oxygen demand cannot be met immediately. Option B is incorrect because it takes some time for the body to adapt to the increased activity. Therefore, at the beginning of an exercise session, our body does not have the required amount of oxygen to maintain homeostasis, as stated in option C.
