How Does Volume Affect Heart Rate?
I. Title – The Effect of Volume on Heart Rate

II. Problem/Research question – Your heart rate can be affected and changed using a variety of things. One thing that can cause your heart rate to change is the volume of audio. How does the volume of an audio track affect your heart rate? If the volume of an audio track is increased, the number of hearts beats per minute will increase as well.

III. Variables – ❖ Independent Variable ➢ The volume of the audio track ❖ Dependent Variable ➢ Heart rate of participants measured in beats per minute (bpm) ❖ Controlled Variables ➢ Audio Track ➢ iFrogz headphones ➢ MacBook Laptop ➢ 15 seconds for calculating bpm

IV. Materials – ❖ Audiocheck-1.net_puretone_1000_80 sound file ❖ MacBook Laptop ❖ iFrogz headphones ❖ iTunes ❖ Timer ❖ Paper ❖ Writing utensil

V. Picture or diagram of lab setup –

    J.M also presents with an elevated blood pressure as well as Heart rate. The history indicated that HTN has been part of J.M’s past, CAD and HF are also noted, which contribute to the elevated BP. The decrease in Hematocrit and Hemoglobin will also contribute to the BP because the heart has to work harder to pump the blood to the body, and the blood is not carrying enough oxygen to deliver throughout the body. The respirations are a compensation of the elevated BP.…

    Blood pressured is measured by the end-systolic volume (the volume of blood in a ventricle at the end of contraction) and the end diastole volume (the volume of blood in the ventricle at end load or filling). The heat from the Water will also aid the body in becoming dehydrated this will cause the viscosity (the resistance of blood flow) of the blood to become higher, making it harder for it to flow through the blood stream imposing Venous return (the rate of blood flow back to the heart.) venous return normally limits Cardiac output (the amount of blood pumped out of a ventricle per beat). Cardiac output is calculated as the product of stroke volume (the volume of blood pumped from one ventricle of the heart with each beat) and heart rate (the number of times the heart beats per one…

    There are multiple ways to measure cardiopulmonary function; pulse, blood pressure, and respiration rate. Factors like gravity, body position, age, and fitness can all have an effect on these factors. In this experiment, the time to recovery is the approximate amount of time it takes for the individuals blood pressure, pulse, and breaths per minute to return to the initial measurements that were taken at resting time. Because it is difficult to measure fluctuating blood pressure, the mean arterial pressure can be used to compensate for pressure changes during heartbeat (Harris-Haller 2005). The objective of this experiment was to determine whether or not exercise effects cardiopulmonary function and whether or not there were differences shown between the results of the male and female subjects overall.…

    It can be caused my many things such as heart tissue damage, high blood pressure or even an infection. One of the causes disrupts the normal electrical impulses that control the rate of the heart’s pumping action. Excess amounts of sodium can cause the heart to change the pattern or speed of heartbeats. I would recommend a drug that limits not completely blocks the sodium channels of the heart cells because sodium carries an electrical charge that is needed for proper heart activity. Blocking the calcium channels can reduce fluid levels, which then could lead to an electrolyte imbalance. Calcium also plays a role in maintain electric currents for normal heartbeat. Blocking calcium channels would do more harm than…

    The primary function of the heart is to transport blood throughout the body, which delivers oxygen, nutrients and chemicals to the cells of the body to ensure their survival and proper function and to remove the cellular wastes. For the body to achieve this, it must maintain a certain blood pressure within the body to overcome gravity and orthostatic changes. If the body did not keep a certain pressure, distal cells and organs would not be able to receive a constant blood supply and cause a homeostatic imbalance. This experiment will show the possible changes in blood pressure due to gravity and orthostatic changes, but first, what is blood pressure and why is it important?…

    It was confirmed that group 4 did have the greatest increase in heart rate but there was no correlation between the data to prove that group 4 had the biggest difference in blood pressure. To further our data we would look deeper into the correlation between the fitness level of the participants and the difference in their heart rate. For some individuals in our data exercise affected their heart rate, but not as much for others. This is seen in group 4, where individual 10 worked out and still had a higher difference in heart rate then individual 11. Some errors that could have occurred to result in this data could’ve been individual 11 not following the claps to know when to take another step and fell behind causing their heart rate to not increase as much. Another error that could have occurred is that the pulse was counted incorrectly and the counter missed beats, or that the heart rate was taken too long after the initial exercise that the pulse was able to slow down with the individual…

    The subject’s heart rate shows a steady heart rate of 68 at rest, however after one minute of exercise it has increased by 8 beats per minute. This shows that the pulse rate and flow of blood has increased around the body during the first minute of exercise because the body is pumping blood around the body faster. After 2 and 3 minutes of exercise the heart rate becomes steadier as there is an equal amount of an increase of 4 beats per minute between them. This shows that the body has adjusted to the rate of exercise.…

    When working with human subject, many considerations need to be taken, firstly the age of the subject. Marieb et al. outlines, ‘foetuses have a higher blood pressure than that of an adult’. Sex is also another factor that determine heart rate. Females usually have a higher heart rate (72-80beats/min), than that of a male (64-72beats/min). Medical history and cultural background. If a person suffers from cardiovascular disease known as tachycardia, they would have an abnormally fast heart rate, while subjecting suffering from bradycardia, would have the opposite effect. Body temperature can also contribute towards an increase or a decrease…
