Experiment purpose: How Does Affect Exercises And Tea Heart Rate And Blood   Pressure rate as well.

 

Introduction:

The heart is situated in the chest area of the organism. Its function is to pump oxygen carried by the blood throughout the body. This process is better known as respiration and it's done by CO2 which is blow out. The level of CO2 and O2 affect the heart beat rate. There are many factors that may affect the heart rate such as exercise, emotions and feelings, age, gender, diet.

During strong exercise the body needs a lot more energy. The energy comes from breathing deeper and faster and. This further oxygen is then used to release more energy, needed to meet the higher level of demand. So this leads to a higher rate of heart beat.

The Standard Pulse Rate and Blood Pressure are generally around 70 (BPM) & 120/80 (mmHg), Blood Pressure is separated into two measurement Systolic/Diastolic.

 The objective of this experiment was to investigate factors   which affects the pulse rate and to what extent can these factors affect the heart beat of humans.

I will be testing these factors by two different kind of experiment firstly after drinking a cup of tea, and secondly after doing a hard exercise.

First experiment (tea):

Materials:

 -Tea bag

- boiling water at 100 Celsius

- 275 ml glass cup

- Stethoscope.  

-Sphygmomanometer ±5 mmHg

-Stopwatch ±0.01 sec.        

General Information:

Blood pressure and Pulse rate must be measured with a beat Per Minute (BPM) and the pulse rate with Millimetre of Mercury

Variables:        

  1. Independent: amount of tea.

  1. Dependent: -The results of different values of blood pressure and pulse rates        (-Pulse Rate ±1 BPM) I reached.

  1. Controlled: -The period and amount of minutes that were regular between each trial (1 minute).

Method:

I)        First I measured my BP and PR at a completely rest, my Pulse Rate and Blood Pressure at rest were: 70 & 130 over 90, which is the standard measurements ad the normal ones for a 16 years old as I am.

II)        Then I made a cup of tea by letting the tea bag for a while to be concentrated and to touch the differences while measuring the data after the experiment, then i drank ...
