The cardiovascular and respiratory systems work towards a common goal of getting oxygen to tissues and getting carbon dioxide out of the body (Cloe‚ 2013). Each system has their own function to help the other‚ but the main focus is to oxygenate the blood. The body does this through one of the bodies organs‚ the lungs. Low oxygenated blood is pumped through the pulmonary arteries to the lungs. Whenever we breathe this low oxygen blood is turned back into oxygenated blood when carbon dioxide is forced

Introduction Cardiovascular Dynamics and the Cardiovascular Physiology experiments both have multiple goals. The first experiment aims to understand how blood flow‚ pressure gradient‚ and resistance relate to one another. To understand this‚ resistance and contributing factors‚ such as vessel radius‚ viscosity‚ and vessel length must be studied. The effects of vessel radius and stroke volume on the ventricular pump should also examined. The experiment also calls for an understanding of cardiovascular compensation

This experiment‚ Cardiovascular Fitness‚ produced the results of the fitness and fitness index of an athlete versus a non- athlete. To do so both the athlete and non-athlete had to preform the step test in which they stepped up and down the stairs at the same pace for the same duration of time. The hypothesis made by my group was that the athlete would have a lower heart-rate and better fitness index then the non-athlete. We guessed this base on the fact that many youth in America who aren’t athletes

Differences in Cardiovascular Fitness that Effect Nonsmokers and Smokers Kayla Forbes 2-15-12 Bio Lab 140/77 Hilde Stawski Abstract: The goal of this experiment was to find out how smoking affected nonsmokers‚ light smokers‚ and heavy smokers heart rate during cardiovascular endurance. The participants will record their pulse rate before and after every minute for six minutes after the step test. As predicted‚ the heavy smokers had an increase in pulse rate that was twice as high as the

Introduction: The cardiovascular system has multiple components that work to ensure an enough oxygen is supplied to the muscles‚ both at rest and during exercise. The objective of this laboratory session was to measure‚ and compare how the cardiovascular system responds to dynamic and isometric exercise. The research question for this lab was “What is the effect of different exercise modalities on the cardiovascular system?”. In response to this research question‚ the following hypothesis was formed

The cardiac cycle is one complete heart beat. During the cycle each atrium and ventricle will contract and relax once. THe contraction of the chamber is called systole and the relaxation is called diastole. The average
