In developing countries‚ the main cause of cardiovascular disease is a built up of fats and cholesterol in the arteries‚ leading to blockage of blood supply to the heart or brain‚ resulting in a heart attack or stroke. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been the leading cause

Effects in Cardiovascular Fitness between Non-Smokers vs. Smokers Katie Hughes Bio Lab: 140 Abstract: In America smoking has became a growing concern that has widely affected people of all ages. It is said that it greatly impacts ones cardiovascular ability to perform enduring amounts of physical activity. In order to come about this idea more accurately‚ we have set up a series of steps and procedures. We divided 18 people into three groups: non-smokers‚ light smokers‚ and heavy smokers

This concept was taken from module 5 "assessing problems related to cardiovascular assessment"‚ sub topic 1" assessment of the heart". According to statistics from world health organization‚ 20 million people died from heart related problems in 2015. This population records that half of this people fall under the age of 50 and 25% under the age of 40. The heart is a hollow muscular organ which is situated in the thoracic cavity. It is located between the lungs in the middle of the chest. The heart

Cardiovascular Disease Cardiovascular Disease is composed of various types of problems due to atherosclerosis‚ which is build up of plaque. The plaque buildup can cause even more difficulties that can lead to heart attack and stroke. Cardiovascular disease can affect the nervous‚ urinary‚ muscular‚ and about every other system in the body due to lack of oxygen rich blood supply to the body. Heart attacks happen when blood flow to a certain part of the heart is blocked off by a blood clot

In Unit 5 Activity 2 we were asked to predict and then find the brightness and flow rate of a closed circuit with a three cell battery pack‚ a long bulb‚ a capacitor parallel to the long bulb‚ and a round bulb. I originally predicted that the round bulb would be brighter when the circuit was first closed and when the circuit reached a steady state‚ and that the wire between the round bulb and the negative side of the battery would have a higher flow rate than the other wires. However‚ in the steady
