The focus of the investigation explored the fundamental properties of cardiac muscle on a cane toad’s (Bufo marinus) heart and the adaptive ability of the heart to produce a response when subject to different conditions of temperature‚ stretch on contractile force‚ substances of acetylcholine‚ adrenaline and atropine‚ and increased frequency of stimulus. Regarding Figure 1‚ the regular heartbeat and contraction force of the toad was identified to demonstrate the difference between atrial contractions

Exercise has a major impact on the cardiovascular system and its efficiency in the human body. There are many concepts which need to be examined to understand exercise and the cardiovascular system‚ such as systolic and diastolic blood pressure‚ cardiac output‚ total peripheral resistance‚ and physiological pathways. According to the European Journal of Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation‚ exercise provides a change in the effectiveness of the cardiovascular system‚ whether over a short
