To define extrasystole‚ and to explain at what point in the cardiac cycle (and on an ECG tracing) an extrasystole can be induced. 5. To describe the effect of the following on heart rate: vagal stimulation‚ cold‚ heat‚ pilocarpine‚ atropine‚ epinephrine‚ digitalis‚ and potassium‚ sodium‚ and calcium ions. 6. To define

that can pass through a vessel. This dilation of blood vessels decreases the amount of venous return to the heart. Also‚ this increased diameter of blood vessels and increased volume allows for less of the blood to come in contact with the walls of the vessels. So a larger volume of blood is allowed to pass through a vessel without obstruction‚ characterizing a decrease in peripheral resistance. This increased blood flow is explained by an immediate increase in heart rate‚ which is what allows for more

Introduction: Heart Rate is defined as the amount of times a person’s heart beats in one minute. A resting heart rate is the person’s heart rate prior to any activity or exercise. As activity increases‚ the heart rate will increase in speed. An increased heart rate is essential as it replaces oxygen in the muscles that is used during said activity and gets rid of excess carbon dioxide through the blood stream. Blood pressure is the force of the blood pushing on the walls of the veins and arteries

Effect of Exercise on Heart Rate. Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find out how different intensities of exercise effect the heart rate I will measure it in beats per minute using a polar heart rate monitor. Hypothesis: I predict that as I increase the intensity of the exercise I do‚ that my heart rate will increase. This is because as I exercise more intensely I will need more blood to my muscles to supply oxygen and take away carbon dioxide; therefore my heart is going to have to beat

Heart Rate Experiment Introduction: The heart rate measures the contractions of your heart and is a requirement for life. The heart uses four chambers. The right and left-lower chambers are called ventricles‚ and right and left-upper chambers are called atria. These four chambers complete two cycles that replenish the tissues with oxygen and get oxygen from our lungs. The heart rate is measured in beats/ minute and a “beat” is when the lower chambers are (two ventricles) contract. This

example of a heart rate is called resting heart rate. The resting heart rate of the body is the number of contractions of the heart that occur in a single minute while the body is at complete rest. The resting heart rate can differentiate upon age‚ gender‚ and health of a human. There will also be a difference in number upon the resting heart rate of athletes and a non-athletes. I calculated 68 beats per minute for my resting heart rate. Another example of heart rate is target heart rate. Mathematically

In a long distance race‚ the athletes take four rounds of a track such that the time of Finish is same as the line of start. The length of the track is 200 m. a) What is the total distance covered by the athletes? b) What is the displacement when they touch the finish line? c) Is the

Homeostasis of BP and Heart Rate A normal blood pressure can be identified by having a systolic pressure of around 120 and a diastolic pressure of around 80. This value is expressed as "120/80". A normal heart rate is expressed as the amount of times it beats in a minute; a normal adult heart rate is between 60-100 beats per minute (BPM). There is a relation between these two measurements‚ but they are stimulated by several different circumstances. The blood pressure is mainly affected

college student in this day in age is never easy. We are always on the move and become stressed very easily. One of the ways students deal with the pressure of ongoing assignments‚ papers‚ and various projects is to simply listen to music. Music is very popular to our specific age group‚ but is consuming different styles of music necessarily a healthy alternate to the stress? How does music affect the heart rate and what different types of music have a greater affect on heart rate? Music most definitely
