The answer is not directly provided in the text, so we need to infer it based on the context. The question asks whether the oxygen consumption increased, and it seems to be related to some data or experiment results.
To answer this question, we need to consider the context or any data that might have been presented before this question. Since the text mentions "fast data" and "understanding human learning," it might be related to an experiment or observation where oxygen consumption is measured.
Without specific data or results provided in the text, we can only make a general assumption. Typically, in experiments related to physical activity or metabolic processes, oxygen consumption might increase due to increased demand for energy.
However, since the text does not provide specific data or results, we cannot definitively say whether the oxygen consumption increased or not. Therefore, without additional information, we cannot accurately choose between option a) Yes or b) No.
In summary, the text does not provide enough information to determine whether the oxygen consumption increased. Additional context or data would be needed to answer this question accurately.
