This is a red assignment so AI should not be used at any point. You should also be working on this independently. If you have questions please reach out to your teacher.
Question 1
1.

I want to see your data for the lab so please fill in the last 3 data tables in your document linked on Google Classroom. Everyone should have these tables filled in ...
  • class brom. blue average (part 1)
  • your resting heart/breathing rate (part 2)
  • 120 seconds after activity heart/breathing rate (part 2)
Did you fill in the 3 data tables for the lab?

Question 2
2.

Before we start talking about the lab directly, explain how the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems relate to each other in terms of energy production. Be specific and use vocabulary.

Lab 1: Carbon dioxide Production
Question 3
3.

Calculate the % decrease in time required for the tube to turn yellow in active rather than resting conditions for the class average. You should type out your work using the calculator function (sometimes it doesn't calculate for you so you can use your own calculator to get the answer).

% change = ((resting time - active time)/resting time) x 100

Question 4
4.

Looking at the class data, how did the time to turn yellow change from resting to active (use the % change number you calculated above in your answer).

Why do you think this is the case? Be specific and use vocabulary from the lab/class/videos/etc.

Lab 2: Circulation

Question 5
5.

How did you/your partner's heart rate and breathing rate change from resting vs. right after doing 1 minute of high knees (there isn't a breathing rate for immediately after because you needed 30 seconds to find it so you can use the breathing rate from 30 seconds after stopping your activity)? Why do you think this change occurred? Use specific data and vocabulary.

Question 6
6.

How did you/your partner's heart rate and breathing rate change during the time after 1 minute of high knees (throughout the 120 seconds you recorded it)? Why do you think this change occurred the way it did. Use specific data and vocabulary.

The next questions have to do with the following graph which shows a runner’s pace in blue (right y-axis) and their heart rate in red (left y-axis) as they run short intervals of 45 sec at a high pace and 45 sec at a lower pace during the middle of their workout.

FYI - the top pace number on the right axis is 6:40/mi in case you can't see it.
Question 7
7.

Focus on the part of the graph where the runner is doing intervals. What happens to the runner's heart rate during the fast intervals (the parts where they are running faster)? Why do you think this is the case? Use data from the graph and specific vocabulary.

Question 8
8.

What happens to the runner's heart rate as the runner slows down (in between the faster intervals)? Why do you think this is the case? Use data from the graph and specific vocabulary.

Question 9
9.

Compare your previous answer to the data you collected from the second part of the lab (where you measured your/your partner's heart rate after working out). What do you notice? Use specific data.
