Premium Heart rate
Introductory Activity Heart Rate (pulse) Have the students find their heart pulse on the carotid artery of the neck. Use the index and middle finger to measure the pulse. Count the number of beats for 6 seconds and add a zero to the end of that number. This number represents the heart beats per minute. The heart pulse is located on either side of the wind pipe‚ next to the voice box. Allow the students to practice measuring their pulse to determine their resting heart rate. Explain that they need

This lab focused on three factors affecting reaction rates‚ temperature‚ surface area‚ and concentration. Our first experiment (table 1) looked mainly into the effects of temperature on the reaction rate. To see how different temperatures would change the reaction rates we had three flasks all containing varying temperatures of water(H20). One with cold water (4°C)‚ one room temperature (21°C)‚ and one with hot water (44°C). In each flask‚ we dropped one tablet of Alka-Seltzer‚ all within 0.008 grams

In this lab the rate of germination in relation to temperature was observed testing the hypothesis‚ if the seeds are exposed to cold temperatures then they will not germinate. In the standard germination test a total of one hundred corn seeds were divided into four groups of twenty-five and each group was used to make a ragdoll. The rag dolls were germinated in room temperature. In the cold test one hundred corn seeds were placed on four layers of moist paper towels in the bottom of a metal tray

Case Study 1 A&P II Age-Related Changes that Occur in the Cardiovascular System As we age‚ certain changes in the heart are inevitable. Even in the absence of disease‚ the wall of the heart thickens‚ heart rate slows‚ maximum heart rate declines‚ and the heart doesn’t pump as efficiently as it once did. Health problems‚ such as hypertension‚ coronary disease‚ congestive heart failure‚ and myocardial infraction are more common in the elderly and aggravate age- related degenerative change in the

The Effect of pH on Enzymatic Reaction Rate Abstract Enzymes are affected by changes in pH. The most favorable pH value— the point where the enzyme is most active—is known as the optimum pH. This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of pH reaction rate on an enzyme‚ catalase‚ from yeast. The experimental results indicate that the catalase worked best at a neutral pH level of seven (7). Introduction An enzyme is a protein molecule that serves as a catalyst. “The basic function of
