Answer to Question 1

1 . Aerobic exercises strengthen and expand the capacity of the lungs to deliver oxygen.
2 . They increase the ability of the circulatory system to deliver blood and oxygen to muscles and other tissues throughout the body.
3 . They strengthen the ability of the heart to move an increased volume of blood through the body.
