Lab: Exercise and Homeostasis Lab Report
Contact [7]

Answer:

The question that was trying to be answered in this lab was “How does exercise affect a person’s heart rate, breathing rate, and perspiration level?” Based on this question, the hypothesis that was formed was “If effects of exercise and exercise are related, then exercising will increase heart rate, breathing rate, and perspiration level”.

Background Information: THIS SHOULD BE PART OF YOUR INTRODUCTION

Before starting the lab report, the important background information that was collected was very helpful while performing the lab. For example, homeostasis is defined according to Dictionary.com as “the ability of the body to maintain relatively stable internal conditions”. Homeostasis in the body is maintained through three vital organs, as mentioned before, the kidneys, liver, and brain. These regulate the temperature, iron content in our blood, retention, and production of energy and overall blood composition. This was helpful because the whole lab report was based on homeostasis and the effect that it had on exercise. Another piece of information that proved to be very important explained the different types of changes that occur during exercise to help the body adjust to maintain equilibrium. These types of changes are perspiration and blood level.

When researching the typed of mechanisms that are used to maintain a constant body temperature, the information that was found was that “our bodies have nerve cells called thermo receptors that measure temperature of our internal body and external environment” (Godbole). When these nerve cells are stimulated by changes inside our bodies and in the world outside, they send their information to the brain, where it is mostly the job of the medulla oblongata to make changes to keep our internal body temperature constant.  

Exercise helps keep you fit and healthy by strengthening your muscles and making your heart beat faster. Your muscles, lungs, and heart all work together to move your body and make sure you are getting enough oxygen. This results in an increase in your breathing rate, or rate of ventilation. Your breathing rate is increased due to the fact that “your muscles are working harder then when they are at rest. This means that they need oxygen, along with sugars to complete cellular respiration.” (Why Does Your…) Your heart rate increases so that it can move the oxygen to the target cell in the muscles you are using quicker.

Materials and Methods:

Materials:

People to exercise

A clock or stop watch

Procedure:

Choose one volunteer to complete jumping jacks at a pace that can be maintained for eight minutes. Make sure the volunteer is inactive for a few minutes before the experiment begins.

Measure the heart rate by taking his or her pulse; you can do this one of two ways:

Radial Pulse

Carotid Pulse

Multiply the number of beats in 15 seconds by 4 to calculate the beats per minute. Record the data in the table below the 0 minutes box.

Measure the person’s perspiration level from 0 to 5: (0 = none; 5 = droplets dripping down the face). Note this observation in the table.

Have the volunteer do jumping jacks for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, measure the heart rate, breathing rate, and perspiration level (refer to steps 2 through 5), and record the data. Measure the pulse, breathing and perspiration levels as quickly as you can so that the volunteer can resume exercise. Do not have volunteer wait while you do the calculations and enter the data.

Repeat step 6 three more times (remember, 2 minutes each at a time, totaling 8 minutes) and record your data at each point.

After the final recording of the dependent variables, wait one minute with the volunteer at reset.

Then measure all of the variables again. Record this data under the “9 Time (Min.) Box”.

What are the applications of human nervous cells?
Andreyy89

The human body is made up of trillions of cells. Cells of the nervous system, called nerve cells or neurons, are specialized to carry "messages" through an electrochemical process. The human brain has approximately 86 billion neurons. To learn how neurons carry messages, read about the action potential.

Neurons come in many different shapes and sizes. Some of the smallest neurons have cell bodies that are only 4 microns wide. Some of the biggest neurons have cell bodies that are 100 microns wide. (Remember that 1 micron is equal to one thousandth of a millimeter!).

Neurons are similar to other cells in the body because:

Neurons are surrounded by a cell membrane.

Neurons have a nucleus that contains genes.

Neurons contain cytoplasm, mitochondria and other organelles.

Neurons carry out basic cellular processes such as protein synthesis and energy production.

However, neurons differ from other cells in the body because:

Neurons have specialize cell parts called dendrites and axons. Dendrites bring electrical signals to the cell body and axons take information away from the cell body.

Neurons communicate with each other through an electrochemical process.

Neurons contain some specialized structures (for example, synapses) and chemicals (for example, neurotransmitters).

The Neuron

neuron

One way to classify neurons is by the number of extensions that extend from the neuron's cell body (soma).

bipolar neuron

Bipolar neurons have two processes extending from the cell body (examples: retinal cells, olfactory epithelium cells).

Pseudounipolar cells (example: dorsal root ganglion cells). Actually, these cells have 2 axons rather than an axon and dendrite. One axon extends centrally toward the spinal cord, the other axon extends toward the skin or muscle.

Multipolar neurons have many processes that extend from the cell body. However, each neuron has only one axon (examples: spinal motor neurons, pyramidal neurons, Purkinje cells).

Neurons can also be classified by the direction that they send information.

Sensory (or afferent) neurons: send information from sensory receptors (e.g., in skin, eyes, nose, tongue, ears) TOWARD the central nervous system.

Motor (or efferent) neurons: send information AWAY from the central nervous system to muscles or glands.

Interneurons: send information between sensory neurons and motor neurons. Most interneurons are located in the central nervous system.

Check out the Gallery of Neurons to see some pictures of real neurons or "Sidewalk Cells" to see photographs of neurons on the street.

There are several differences between axons and dendrites:
