Homeostasis Lab

The purpose of the lab was to see how exercise affects homeostasis by measuring a person’s heartbeat, breathing rate, and sweat while they were exercising. The hypothesis I made was, if the volunteer starts to exercise, then the body will react by quickening the heart and breath rate as well as sweating to keep homeostasis in the body, therefore exercise does affect homeostasis. During the experiment there was some major observations that made the answer to the question clear. As the volunteer exercised the body tried to keep its levels normals by quickening the volunteer’s heart and breath rate. The volunteer’s receptors also sensed that as the volunteer was exercising their body temperature was getting higher so the control system told the
