  • Pulse Investigation

    Pulse Investigation Aim My aim is to investigate one factor that affects pulse rate. I thought about this for a while and read a few medical books before deciding that I would investigate how physical activity can affect pulse rate and the recovery rate Prediction ---------- I predict increasing physical activity will make the pulse rate go higher because exercise increases the rate at which energy is needed from food. This increases the need for both food and oxygen in

  • The Effect of Exercise on Pulse Rate

    728 Words  | 2 Pages

    Hypothesis During a period of exercise pulse rate will increase. Plan I will need only a stopwatch and no other apparatus for my experiment. I will rest for five minutes and then take my resting pulse rate and record it. I will rest to make sure that it is fair and that my pulse has not been raised by anything. I will then do step up exercises for five minutes on a 10cm step and rest for five minutes after that. I will take my pulse every minute during the exercise and every minute

    feel tired and causes muscle cramp. So, anaerobic respiration is best used for short, strenuous activities. The equation looks like this: Glucose àEnergy + Lactic Acid Pulse rate is the number of times the heart beats per minute. It is caused by a stretching of the arteries that takes place after each heartbeat. Pulse rate is caused by the actual impact of blood on the arteries. Method In this experiment I am hoping to prove that when using anaerobic

  • The Effect of Exercise on Pulse Rate

    The Effect of Exercise on Pulse Rate What is a Pulse In Physiology, a pulse is where there is a recurring opening out of the biggest blood vessels (Arteries). This is a consequence of a coherent flow of blood being propel around the body. The muscle that is responsible for this surge of blood is the Heart. I know that by taking 220 and subtracting your age you can find your maximum pulse rate, because your muscles rely on oxygen it is important that I understand how oxygen is transported

  • Factors That Affect the Pulse Rate After Exercise

    Factors That Affect the Pulse Rate After Exercise Introduction: - As humans we need the heart to pump blood all around the body in order for us to live. We measure the rate of it, by measuring the pulse. We can measure pulse either on the inside of your wrist or the both sides of your neck. Pulse is taken in beats per minute usually, and depending on how much it is, we can take information on how fit and healthy you are. Pulse rates can vary from 60 up wards to about a 180 (this is

    first participant measured her pulse rate for 30 seconds before starting the exercise. Her pulse rate was calculated to determine the number of beats per minute. She then stepped on the platform (up and down) and continued at a slow pace for 3 minutes. After three minutes of the exercise, she measured her pulse rate every minute to determine her recovery time. This process was repeated until her pulse rate returned to normal. The amount of time taken in seconds for her pulse rate to return to normal is

  • Lab Report The Effects of Drugs on Cardiac Physiology

    Lab Report The Effects of Drugs on Cardiac Physiology The study of cardio physiology was broken up into five distinct parts all centering on the cardiovascular system. The first lab was utilization of the electrocardiogram (ECG). This studied the electrical activities of the heart by placing electrodes on different parts of the skin. This results in a graph on calibrated paper of these activities. These graphs are useful in the diagnosis of heart disease and heart abnormalities. Alongside

    brain by buzzing them. We decided to include caffeine in our lab by having one out of 2 groups of 5 people drink caffeinated soda .Then, participants completed two activities, taking their pulses after each event. The second group (B) did everything just as group A, except drink any soda. Our hopes were that pulse rates would raise higher with caffeine in the blood stream, and this lab did not disappoint. The hypotheses for this lab stated, “If a person is given caffeinated soda, and then goes and

    commonly called the arterial or peripheral pulse. The pulse weather regular, irregular, thready or strong, gives a good overall picture of the clients health status. Several characteristics should be assessed when measuring the radial pulse rate, rhythm, amplitude, contour and elasticity of the various characteristics. amplitude can be quantified as follows 1 thready or weak 2 normal 3bounding If abnormalities are noted during assessment of the radial pulse further assessment should be performed for

    respiratory rate, pulse, and blood pressure changed when sitting, standing, and being in supine position. When looking at the three different positions, there was not a big difference when measuring my respiratory rate. My respiratory from lowest to highest is in the order of supine (11 BPM), standing (12 BPM), and lastly sitting (14 BPM). When looking at my pulse, there was quite a difference in the measurement. I had a lower pulse rate in the supine position, which is 80 bpm. My sitting pulse rate was 88

  • Investigating Oxygen Debt During Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise

    Investigating Oxygen Debt During Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise Introduction During this experiment I am aiming to investigate the oxygen debt in two people after exercise. During exercise energy is needed in the muscles. Energy comes from food which is converted into glucose and for the most efficient energy supply muscles also need oxygen. When energy is produced using oxygen this is called aerobic respiration. The formula for aerobic respiration is: glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide

    weight was fat! I was so disappointed, since that was about five percent above what was considered healthy for an average young man of my age. To add to the emotional injury, I also learned that my resting pulse rate was 80 beats per minute (bpm). A young man with strong heart muscles has a pulse rate of 70 bpm or less. I now had the evidence I needed to tell me that a change in lifestyle was required. I decided to start an exercise program using a pair of rollerblades I had received as a gift from

    its’ cardiac cycle. I believe that throughout this investigation, the heart rate of the people of the people I will be experimenting on will speed up and rise to a very fast pace. I also think that although the heart rate is bound to increase, the pulse will eventually reach its maximum acceleration and stay steady after a long period of exercising. I do not believe that will be the result in my experiment for a main reason that the longest period of time people will be exercising in is 2.5 minutes
