Report Summary: Gas Exchange Methods of analysis: Andrea used a heart rate monitor to record and compare the impact the spin class has – before, during and after- on her heart. The heart rate monitor consist of two parts they work together. The transmitter which looks like a belt and needs to be fixed around the chest and the receiver will be worn as a watch on the wrist. They have different functions, the monitor will measure and record your average heart rate from the moment the monitor is…

developing cardiovascular disorders (“Physical Activity”). The number of beats per minute equals heart rate (765). To find heart rate, a pulse point must be determined on the body, and the most common are the carotid and radial arteries (795). The rhythmic throbbing of the arterial wall as blood is being pumped is called a pulse (795). By knowing this information about a pulse, we can correctly identify the number of beats per minute. Each heartbeat is different from the next one (Watanabe).…

out a period of exercise for a certain length of time and then records their heart rate before and for so long after the period. This shows how fit and healthy the heart is by showing how long it takes for the heart to go back to a regular resting pulse rate. “The cardiovascular response to acute exercise is centred on the principle that the cardiovascular system fulfils three primary functions: to deliver nutrients and oxygen to cells of the body’s tissues, to remove metabolites from the same…

Professor Bearing’s Journey Through Cancer In the story “Wit “by Margaret Edson, the author depicts how a professor by the name Vivian Bearing was brilliant, cold hearted and then she became filled with kindness. Professor Bearing was a tough love teacher; she doesn’t really care about the students and their struggles.

Introduction: The heart rate of an animal can be used as an indicator to identify when a stimulus evokes a reaction from the animal. Specifically in the case of humans’, there tends to be the cognitive ability to physically withhold a reaction from a stimulus and mask the involuntary reaction. However, the heart rate reacts immediately after a stimulus, and is not reigned in or controlled cognitively, so could the heart potentially be a true indicator of an individuals reaction to a stimulus?…

Does an Increase in Heart Rate affect the height of a Vertical Jump? Introduction: Whether it’s dunking, spiking or getting over that bar, every athlete strives to perfect a high jump. A vertical jump is the action of increasing the centre of gravity in the vertical plane with only the use of one's own muscles (Verma, C, (2015)). The motion of a vertical jump is used in many sports including volleyball, basketball and even football. In sports such as volleyball it could mean the difference…

The effect of music genre on heart rate and blood pressure By: Kristin Hall Introduction: Heart rate measures the speed of the number of times the heart pulses per a unit of time, normally beats per minute (Biology Online, 2011). The number of pulses is based off the number of contractions of the ventricles. This number shows how much blood is flowing through the body, and thus how much hemoglobin and oxygen is being transported. When muscles become active they require more oxygen to function…
