thinks that playing video games will affect your adrenaline response because we think it will increase your breathing rate‚ heart rate‚ and pain tolerance.For this experiment‚ Richard and Matthew played Black Ops 2 and then we tested their reflexes‚ breathing rate‚ and pain tolerance. We compared it to the test we took before playing the game and the results was the breathing rate‚ reflexes‚ and heart attack increases which proves our point that video games does affect an adrenaline response.

fiscal policy designers should opt for a flexible exchange rate system. Nations‚ however‚ which do not have such policy makers should opt instead for a fixed exchange rate system. When attempting to stabilize an economy‚ monetary policy is the most efficient weapon that policymakers possess (Weerapana‚ 2003). In other words‚ it is much simpler to enact monetary policy than fiscal (Weerapana‚ 2003). Some nations benefit from a fixed exchange rate system‚ however. Nations such as Brazil‚ Kenya and Turkey

Exercise 1 (20 marks) 1. What happens to the blood pressure and heart rate when the arterial resistance is increased? When arterial resistance is increased‚ the blood pressure increases and heart rate decreases. For instance‚ when arterial resistance increased to 150%‚ systolic blood pressure increases to 132.8mmHg‚ diastolic pressure increases to 82.1 mmHg‚ and heart rate decreased to 51.8/min. 2. What might give rise to condition with increased
