The purpose of this experiment was to become familiar with the electrocardiograph to help us determine the electrical activity of the heart. As well as, to observe how exercise and different body positions(conditions) can affect the activity of the heart. Introduction Trained professionals can look at the EKG tracing and determine if the heart is … Read more

For the human’s heart rate to speed up, decrease, or stay the same, the volume of sound has a high effect on the heart. However, if people will let down the volume of sound, others would not be mannered by the increase in volume managing to the deadly heart attack. Sound within the community, for … Read more
Lab Report 3: Daphnia, Human and Crayfish Cardiac Activity Introduction An electrocardiogram, abbreviated as ECG in this report, is a visual representation of an organism’s atrial and ventricular depolarization and repolarization. Previous research has shown that although there is variability in the amplitude and shape of the waves of ECG, dependent on the subject’s health, … Read more
Arrhythmias are any change from the normal sequence of the electrical impulses in the heart. An arrhythmia is when your heart cannot pump blood effectively. It may happen to fast, to slowly, or it may happen erratically. When arrhythmias occur; the lungs, brain, and other organs cannot work properly and they may shut down and … Read more
