When comparing both subjects it is clear that Subject 2 (Humza) has a larger vital capacity and lower breathing rate than Subject 1 (Mohamed.S). This experiment clarified that many factors can be taken into account and influence vital capacity and breathing rates. Referring back to my hypothesis which states that height and physical activity are large factors‚ Subject 2 being taller required his body to take in more oxygen through his lungs as oxygenated blood coming from the heart needed to travel
