Aim:The aim of this practical is to investigate the effect of exercise on heart rate and breathing rate. We will use a digital heart rate monitor strapped on our chest while we perform different levels of exercise. A digital watch is also provided which receives signals from the heart rate monitor and displays your current heart rate on the screen. To measure the breathing rate at different levels of exercise‚ we measure the breathing rate before physical activity by counting the number of breaths

Literature Review The human heart is a very complicated organ‚ with the main purpose to pump life sustaining blood throughout the human body. It also supplies oxygen and nutrients to all areas and clears harmful waste from the body. The heart is made up of cardiac muscle which beats on its own. According to the article ‘heart ‘which was written by The National Geographic the heart will slow down or speed up depending on how the body is being used. This is done by nerve signals which are being

Effect of Exercise on Heart Rate. Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find out how different intensities of exercise effect the heart rate I will measure it in beats per minute using a polar heart rate monitor. Hypothesis: I predict that as I increase the intensity of the exercise I do‚ that my heart rate will increase. This is because as I exercise more intensely I will need more blood to my muscles to supply oxygen and take away carbon dioxide; therefore my heart is going to have to beat

The Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Heart Rate Introduction: Our bodies need to be in balance in order to function properly‚ and there are many ways the body maintains balance‚ or homeostasis. Homeostasis is the maintenance of nearly constant conditions in the internal environment. Our normal heart rate is an example of our body in homeostasis and any sort of change‚ or stimulus‚ can alter it. Exercise‚ adrenaline in the blood‚ and a low blood pH are all stimuli that increase the heart rate. Exercise

Investigate the effect of on exercise on the heart rate. Aim: To find out if there is any relevant link between the amounts of exercise taken to increase a person heart rate. Equipment needed: Stop watch Screen volunteer P.E kit Calculator Record sheet Type of exercise: skip for few minutes ‚ then break in between and again repeat it once or twice. Method: First of all‚ we needed to take the resting heart rate of the person who is about to skip. Then‚ with the stopwatch one

is to find out and measure the effect of exercise on the respiratory system. I predict that whilst carrying out the exercise‚ the breathing rate will considerably increase from resting to working breathing rate. However due to the fitness of the volunteer this breathing rate could be different. As soon as the volunteer has stopped the exercise‚ I predict that the breathing rate will steadily decrease over a number of minutes until it gets back to resting breathing rate. I can justify my prediction

Science: Abstract: This investigation is to show the raspatory and circulatory systems in deeper meaning. It also explains the reasons for why breathing and heart rate becomes higher during physical activity‚ and if there are any differences between female and males. This experiment shows the biological principles‚ and how to record and produce data of a quality standard. Introduction: Air goes into the alveoli when we breathe in. This lets the veins around the alveoli drop of their carbon dioxide

What happened to the R-R interval and heart rate after exercise? After exercise the R-R interval increased steadily from 0.48 to 0.68 seconds‚ while the heart rate BPM decreased steadily from 123 to 76; both trending back towards the resting values. What happened to the T-P interval during exercise? Outline what this means for ventricular filling time. During exercise there was a significant drop in the T-P interval which then steadily increased when exercise was completed. The T-P interval represents

1. The heart rate determines the intensity of the fitness activity. a. 12*6=72 b. 220-21=199 c. 129-150 range. 2. Aerobic metabolism‚ uses fats‚ proteins and carbohydrates that are oxidized and turned into carbon dioxide and water. Anaerobic metabolism‚ uses only carbohydrates and enters the fluid‚ or cytoplasm‚ of the cell and is turned into lactic acid. Aerobic exercises are running‚ biking‚ and swimming‚ whereas anaerobic exercises are sprinting‚ jumping‚ weight training. 3. My activity is considered

The effect of exercise on heart rate Word Count THE EFFECT OF EXERCISE ON HEART RATE Abstract - Aims - This study is to ascertain‚ if there is an effect on heart rate after exercise. This is being done to see‚ if there is a difference between resting heart rate and heart rate after performing exercise. Method and results - The study was compiled of seven female students from the University of Huddersfield. For the exercise a step was used‚ a polar heart rate monitor was used for
