P6
Introduction
To achieve my P6 I am going to follow guidelines to interpret collected data for heath rate and breathing rate before and after a standard period of exercise.
First of all I will write a prediction on what I think the results may be and why. I will then state what equipment I will need to undertake both experiments.
In a group of 3 we will record our results in table form and show the difference in a bar chart.
These results will be for breathing and heart rate when we are resting for 1 minute, jumping for 1 minute and walking for 1 minute.
I will then evaluate my results and then write up a conclusion.
Prediction
My prediction is that everyone in my group will have a higher heart rate and breathing rate after they do exercise and possibly after walking their heart and breathing rate may increase slightly.
There a lot of factors to take into consideration when completing this experiment, this being is anyone on medication or have a illness, the temperature of the room, have we eaten, body size, emotions, body position and fitness level of each of us.
A normal resting heart rate for an adult ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute, if someone’s heart rate is above 100 or below 60 this could indicate a problem and they should possibly see a doctor. To measure heart rate you have to locate your pulse on your body which can be found on your wrist or on your neck. When this has been located we each will count the number of beats in 15 seconds and multiply this by 4 to get our heart rate. We are all going to make sure we are relaxed to ensure it is as accurate as can be.
I predict when we exercise (jumping for 1 minute) this will increase our heart rate by causing blood to pump faster and our body needing a higher intake of oxygen which makes our heart beat faster so it can send oxygen to cells within the body.
Walking should have little impact on either heart rate or breathing rate but this could depend again on room temperature, medication,
