Cardiovascular diseases include a wide range of heart abnormalities‚ as well as diseases of other parts of the circulatory system‚ such as the coronary arteries‚ ther cerebrovascular system‚ the aorta and pulmonary vessels‚ and the peripheral arteries and veins. Abnormalities of these structures may be either congenital or acquired over time. It has been said that cardiovascular disease kills about 954‚000 people annually‚ including more than 156‚000 people under the age of sixty-five years.

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

Cierra Moore Unit 2 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
