Abstract.

My classmates and I did an experiment on the physiology of the body that took us two classes. In this experiment, we had three different levels of exercise: low, medium and high. Our low level of exercise was lying down and sleeping, our medium level of exercise was walking around and our third level of exercise was running. After each exercise of different difficulty level, we would measure the pulse rate, the respiration rate, blood pressure, internal and external temperature and the amount of sweat produced on the forehead of the subject.
The results of the experiment were that all measurements increase as the level of difficulty increased apart from the blood pressure. The blood pressure increased during the medium level activity but decreased after doing the most difficult level of activity.
When doing physical activity, it is normal for the amount of sweat, respiration rate, temperature, blood pressure and pulse to rise. The blood pressure was not higher after the hardest level of activity because my classmates and I waited too long after the activity before taking the measurements.
