"Metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that occur in living organisms in order to maintain
life. These processes allow organisms to grow and reproduce, maintain their structures, and
respond to their environments.
This experiment measures basic body metabolic parameters:
— pulse
– respiration rate
– blood pressure
– temperature and sweat
The objective of this lab is to measure body metabolic mechanisms in response to different
levels of exercise: pulse, respiration rate, blood pressure, temperature (internal and
external) and sweat." (shea. k. LabExercisePhysiology.pdf, school notes 2009)
